What this video covers
Wicked Makers' Jaimie and Jay build a full-scale animatronic version of Mommy Long Legs from Poppy Playtime Chapter 2, designed to deliver jump scares on their porch for Halloween. The build combines a custom pneumatic mechanism for movement, 3D-modeled and printed body parts, and rubber pipe insulation for the character's signature stretchy limbs. The finished piece is painted to resemble a worn, old plastic toy and joins their growing roster of Poppy Playtime Halloween animatronics. The video walks through the complete build process from mechanical mech to final dressed prop.
Key takeaways
- ◆A pneumatic mech was built first to dial in the jump scare animation before any cosmetic work began
- ◆All body parts were 3D modeled and printed, with rubber pipe insulation used to construct the long, flexible limbs
- ◆Paint and weathering give the finished prop an aged plastic toy aesthetic true to the source character
- ◆The build is part of an ongoing Poppy Playtime animatronic series including Catnap, Huggy Wuggy, and others
- ◆The 3D model files are available to Patreon supporters

Making a real Puppet Animatronic! #fnaf
Wicked Makers' Jaimie and Jay build a life-size animatronic version of The Puppet (Marionette) from Five Nights at Freddy's 2. The prop combines a foam-sculpted body wrapped in black velvet with a 3D-printed, painted mask sourced from a third-party sculptor. Two pneumatic systems power the scare: a scissor mechanism that launches the figure forward roughly three feet, and a chest-mounted pneumatic that thrusts its arms outward for the signature jumpscare effect.
