Actually, from what I've heard, they did try to bring the Rock-afire over there. There was a company planning to start doing more restaurants with at least Billy Bob and Looney Bird. However, they had a new character to be added named Hannah Banana. Naturally, it never got off the ground. Some think that Aaron Fechter didn't like what was going on after they recorded the shows. Some people think that they couldn't afford it. I honestly think it was both reasons.

Ok so the list of cei animatronics in the uk is as follows (with the current status of the shows)
Gullivers land Milton Keynes installed in late 1999, gullivers world Warrington installed in early 1993, and gullivers kingdom Matlock bath installed anyware from 1980 to 1993- hard luck bears (Rae retrofit) Status : fully operational with most characters just needing a bit of TLC, all the characters have the original hard luck bears masks with the exeption of beach bear, earl, choo choo and looney bird. The shows all run on Windows xp, with the show tape being stored on a memory stick😂😂, the gullivers kingdom version of the show includes looney bird in front of centre stage, warringtons version is programmed a lot better than the other two yet runs the exact same show tape.
Pleasure island cleethorpes installed in the early 90s - classic 3 stage RAE Status : Not much is actually known about this show other than the fact that it was installed in the late 80's and ran all the way through until early to mid 2003 when it was removed, the wareabouts of this show is currently unknown but was most probably destroyed or given to another park with the Rae for parts (highly doubt it)
Flamingo land yourkshire installed in the early 90s - classic 3 stage RAE Status : there is not much information about this show either other than the fact that the show was in near flawless condition as far as videos have shown and that the park had a whole land named after billy Bob, called billy bobs kingdom, which also had a number of attractions and shops named after the characters, like mitzis snack shack and bully bobs sweet store . The show also ran original showbiz rock afire explosion showtapes. This show was removed in early 2003 and the current whereabouts of the show are also a mystery, although the show was most probably destroyed.
Pleasure beach Blackpool - classic hard luck bear show install date unknown Status : there is very very little information on this show exeption from the fact that it was most likely installed in the early 80s and was situated next to the Blackpool Virginia reel, the whereabouts and condion of the show are unknown. All that is known is that the show is not at the park any more. UPDATE : the show made its way to pleasure beaches sister park, frontierland morecambe, where it stayed abandoned until 2007 when it was reportedly destroyed
Funderland travelling theme park - classic 3 stage Rae in a trailer Status : operational with most characters with full movements, the show needs a little bit of TLC as some of the cosmetics are coming apart. The show runs original RAE showtapes and still operates in the uk
Hanna banana resturant lakeside - classic billy Bob and looney bird and a retrofitted mitzi Status : removed. These characters were part of a small custom show programmed specially for the resturant by Aaron, this show was in very goof condition when it was at the resturant. This resturant closed in the late 2000s and has since been replaced by another indoor soft play centre minus the show. The actual wareabouts of the show is also Unknown although the mask for the hanna character recently appeared on Aaron's eBay, so we could only assume it was all sent back to cei

It was destroyed. thanks for the info pal, been looking for info on this show for years. do you know anything else about it. the only reason i thought it still existed somewhere was because one of the techs from a park over here told me that the pleasure beach still had it sat around in one of their warehouses

BOB: ["Hey, Bobby, I found this animatronic show in the storage, what should I do?"] Bobby: ["Destroy it of course!"] That really upsets me how a lot of these places, and other places, just think destroying things that took a while to make isn't that big of a deal. People need to think of the work put in those things before calling it trash. It is understandable because when you want to make room for other stuff, sometimes you gotta let things go. Also selling things like this isn't actually easy when you can't even keep them in a decent condition with so many other things in your hands. I just wish there was another solution and I pray God will make a fun place where CEI or CEC bots will be able to do what they do best, perform. This is why I am okay with SOME Retrofits.
