Hey Check out the 1 minute mark on this video!



They call it an animatronic, but it looks like a giant puppet to me?!
Maybe just the big ones are!?

.

That's awesomeness!!!!!

super neato!

Ok, that is past freak'in awesome !!!! So now we need to make thread in props on how to build our own animatronic Baby T Rex !!!

The funny thing is someone here probably will try.....LoL It's just an over sized 3 axis skull puppet build with slightly large latex costume !!

Lol I love it I whant oneeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Love that! Gore galore uses this type of puppetry to a degree. It's called Bunraku puppetry. Basically, it's a full size puppet and the puppeteer is fairly visible but usually wears a camouflage/black leotard to somewhat hide them. That T-Rex rig seems to have been made much more light and mobile. The detail is amazing! Sounds like he's also using a Scream Cube which is an actor controlled sound effect (with a large speaker).

If you don't mind FF'd a bit, go to Time Stamp 4:16 and see it in action:

I agree with a comment on the t rex video. I was disappointed when I saw the legs D: Still awesome though.
