What this video covers
Wicked Makers' Jaimie and Jay transform a retail animatronic skeleton into a full-sized Springtrap from Five Nights at Freddy's. The build combines EVA foam and 3D-printed components, all wrapped in green fleece and weathered with paint to achieve the character's signature rotting-suit look. The creators openly acknowledge the project hit several obstacles along the way, making it a candid look at a complex character build. The finished piece is timed to coincide with the release of the FNAF movie.

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.

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.
