We made a real YARNABY Animatronic (that can eat people)

Wicked Makers duo Jay and Jaimie build a full-scale animatronic version of Yarnaby from the horror video game Poppy Playtime, engineering it with steel and pneumatics to deliver a genuinely powerful bite. The build is documented from concept through construction, culminating in a dramatic ballistic gel arm test to measure whether the finished prop could realistically 'eat' a person. The project blends character-accurate prop replica work with serious mechanical engineering, resulting in a haunted-house-worthy centerpiece. It's chaotic, messy, and deeply impressive in equal measure.

We made The DOCTOR to Protect our House!

Wicked Makers' Jay and Jaimie build a full-scale animatronic of The Doctor (Harley Sawyer) from the horror game Poppy Playtime, going far beyond a typical Halloween prop.

The project also features collaboration with the game's developer and the character's original voice actor, lending it an impressive level of authenticity.

The video blends a detailed prop-making showcase with entertainment-style challenge content, delivering both build inspiration and chaotic fun. It stands out as one of the more ambitious FNAF-inspired Halloween animatronic projects in the DIY maker space.

Rebuilding Our HUGGY WUGGY Animatronic (3 Years Later)

Wicked Makers' Jaimie and Jay revisit their very first DIY animatronic — a full-size Huggy Wuggy from Poppy Playtime — and rebuild it from the ground up three years later. The original build, constructed from PVC pipe, a wiper motor, and blue fur, suffered from balance issues, a loose head, and overall fragility. Drawing on lessons learned from numerous animatronic builds since then, the duo overhauls Huggy's structure, stability, and appearance. The result is a dramatically improved version that reflects how far their skills have progressed.

We made a real FIGURE Animatronic (that can hear you)

Wicked Makers' Jaimie and Jay transform a store-bought werewolf animatronic into Figure — the blind, sound-hunting monster from the Roblox horror game Doors. They reshape the prop's body using bubble wrap, aluminum foil, and plastic wrap, then replace the default motion sensor with a sound sensor so the animatronic reacts to noise just like the in-game enemy. Finishing touches include custom teeth and a glowing head before putting their creation to the ultimate test: attempting to sneak past it in real life.
