Creative Engineering

Logo (1983)

Creative Engineering Inc. is an animatronics oriented entertainment and manufacturing company founded by Aaron Fechter in 1975 and stopped its major business ventures and employment in the early 2000's. It now continues to run solely by its creator as a paid video platform, animatronics / parts reseller, and (formerly) a fandom tourist destination, with most of these current operations inactive as they begin plans to open a parts warehouse and museum.

The company is most well known for its creation of the Rock-afire Explosion for ShowBiz Pizza Place, which has become its frontrunning IP to present day.
