Flik Animatronic

[WondersOfLife]

So I was just looking at a video from 2016 of It's Tough to be a Bug... And it looks like the Flik animatronic seemed to move a LOT more and the mouth worked a lot better. At least compared to the last time I saw this show a few weeks ago. Has anyone else noticed this?

You could have caught him on a bad day. Worked fine last month.

Hopper was down again on Saturday afternoon. He seems pretty hit or miss lately.

Haven't noticed anything different with Flik.

That's when I went was last month! He seems to work fine. What I mean is his movement just seemed a bit more restrictive than what I saw in the 2016 video. Is there something mechanical about that? Kind of like comparing CBJ to its earlier years.

Hopper was down? If hopper is down, how does the show keep going?

There's a "light" on screen that comes from the right where he is. The audio still plays as if he is talking from a distance, but no AA.

He was down when I was there last week too.

I have never seen Hopper down for this show. I find this interesting. Is there a video anywhere?
