Articulated Chuck Walkaround
The standard AAM walkaround as shown in in the August 1997 show.
The articulated Chuck E. walkaround head was created in 1996 by former Creative Engineering employee, David “Billy Bob” Irving.
History
The articulated walkaround heads were created by ‘Billy Bob’ Irving for ShowBiz Pizza Time to be used for on-screen appearances from 1996 to 1997. For preparation of the Galaxy 5000 movie, the articulated head was refurbished by Billy Bob. In the process the original eyelashes were replaced and he was given a red cap. As of 2024, it is unknown of where the head or any other accompanying parts could be.

Design
The head itself is based off of the, at the time, newest variation of the in-store walkaround head from 1994, just with modifications to accommodate the moving parts.

- The former voice of Chuck E. Cheese, Duncan Brannan, described wearing the head as wearing a bomb on your head.[1]
