New 3-Stage

A CEC Conversion of the New Rock A Fire Explosion from CEI. Converted from 1999-2000. They are located at former Looney Bird's Restaurants that formerly used the New RAE.

Changes from New RAE

 * The TV on Stage Left was originally replaced with a Garner Holt-built 16m bot of Charlie Rockitt, but the bot was retrofitted as Crusty the Cat (and later Bella Bunny) at all stores with the New 3-Stage due to the failure of Chuck E. Cheese in the Galaxy 5000
 * Fatz is now Mr. Munch
 * Mitzi is now Helen Henny
 * Billy Bob is now Jasper T. Jowls
 * The full size Looney Bird is now a "seated" Chuck E. Cheese
 * The Looney Bird in the window is now Pizzacam
 * Beach Bear is Pasqually
 * Dook is now a "standing" Chuck E. Cheese
 * TVs have been added on each side of the stage
 * The Wink has been added.

Trivia

 * The moving turntable on Center Stage is rarely used nowadays.
 * Chuck's traveling ability was recycled from the CU Prototype's Mr. Munch plans.
 * This stage is controlled using a similar setup to the Studio C stages (albeit without the usage of floppy disks, instead using a Meroview data cartridge).
 * The programming is done with retrofitted smaller Mijjins. A set of smaller Mijjins (i.e. one of the sets that included the Mijjinator) was retrofitted by Dan Bacci Jr., the tech for the 3-Stage location, to allow this.
 * The Looney Bird's locations with the New 3-Stage (besides the prototype in Orlando) had a Mexican style interior for everything but the animatronics, and most of those locations kept the Mexican walls post-conversion due to budget constraints.
