Release: 2026 - Present
Manufacturer: Orbit Games

The ShowBiz Price Place is a claw machine with wheels that is manufactured by Orbit Games (under license from Creative Engineering). It is planned to begin release in early 2026[1] at a price of $2,999.[2] The machine is extensively themed around the Rock-afire Explosion, featuring a monitor on the back wall that plays footage of the band performing.[1] It is also intended to be stocked with official Rock-afire plushies (seemingly the same ones sold on Creative Engineering’s BigCartel store),[3] with each purchase coming with 50 of them at no extra charge.

History

American Pinball (a subsidiary of Orbit Games) began teasing a Rockafire Explosion-related announcement in November 2025. Roughly two weeks later, on December 3, 2025, they would reveal two images of the ShowBiz Price Place on Facebook.[4] That same day, Orbit Games’ Facebook page would make another post outlining the machine’s basic features and planned ship date. They also stated that it would appeal to both adults who remember {{ < wiki-link “ShowBiz Pizza Place” > }} and children whose familiarity with animatronics stems from newer media like {{ < wiki-link “Five Nights at Freddy’s (Game)” “Five Nights at Freddy’s” > }}.[1]
