Most realistic Animatronic

[AngryEyebrows]

What in your opinion would be the most life like Animatronic in The World? I simply spending time on YT and watching these awesome figures the Imagineers churn out.

Lucky the Dinosaur.

Patricia doing her hair in COP.....

I think the Wicked Witch of the West from TGMR. The former Polynesian Goddess in Tiki Room also had lifelike movements.

 

[DisneyFans4Life]

The first Jack Sparrow in POTC.

The yeti.


Oh wait . . . . .

Phil Holmes.

Always impressed with Hopper in ITTBAB. Yeti when it worked is the best I've seen.

Does C-3PO count? If not, I like the previous comments of the Wicked Witch and Jack Sparrow. I also think the Animatronics in the Mine Train are very good.

 

[danyoung56]

Why wouldn't 3PO count?

Why wouldn't 3PO count?

I don't know why I said that. I guess I was thinking the question was in relation to how animatronics looked when modeled after real people.

No matter how many time I've ridden POC, I always do a double take at Jack Sparrow. Especially after I hear the rumor that Johnny Depp sneaks in sometimes (don't ruin my dream, I'll believe till the day I die!)

 

[MagicGoofy]

The working yeti..

 

[Po'Rich]

The presidents (all of them as a group).

 

[Susan Savia]

President Lincoln, COP

 

[Disneyhead'71]

This one. All it needs is a heart!

 

[TheDuke]

Jack Sparrow and the presidents

 

[Timekeeper]

Timekeeper (obviously).

Sometimes there's a difference between realistic appearance and realistic movement. For me, when judging realism, ideally both qualities would exist. The Jacks look great, but only the treasure Jack has a bit more than head/torso movement. The Bug is impressive, but the Witch is the one that still manages to impress me to this day. I remember the first time I saw the Witch; I was convinced it was a live actor.

Father, in the Carousel of Progress comes to mind first. The other mentioned are good also.
