This item is an animatronic bear suit.  Currently, there are none of these in stock.  Please allow 8-10 weeks for another animatronic bear suit to be created.  The jaw of the head has a radio controlled servo that opens and shuts the mouth.  There are several layers to this suit, which require the assistance of a wardrobe dresser to work with the performer  Performer inside should be between 5' 7" and 6' tall. The bear's height (depending on the performer) is between 6' 8"and 7' 1" tall.   The undersuit has muscles that move under the stretch fur.  Very good movement, while keeping the "look" right.

The suit performer sees through the neck of the bear.  Animatronic mouth allows for some "talking". Museum quality fur with stretch backing. Full "Hollywood style" muscle suit inside.  Requires a suit dresser to put the performer inside comfortably and attend that performer while inside the suit at all times on set.   Matches the animatronic bear head, which performs the facial animation.

Please allow 6-8 weeks prior to the required play date for this suit.  The original has been sold to a major advertiser in northern europe.  The new, updated version is planned for completion in January 2011. 

Many past shows have featured versions of this suit.  The original was given two major upgrades during it's stay here:

Testimonial from Fat Box Films
On behalf of myself and everyone here at Fat Box Films, I wanted to send out a huge thank you to both of you as well as your team for providing some amazing assets that were crucial in making this spot really come alive. Our client is ecstatic about what was shot and we are really excited as well after watching the footage. Jim, your creative suggestions, ability to meet our budget, and professionalism was a huge factor in this project coming together, and again I would like to say thanks. I can't wait to work with Animal Makers again in the future.
