Animatronics on Display

[furtech]

There was an article in the Times about the display of animatronic creatures on display at the Academy of Motion Pictures A&S. Looks like a good show: all kinds of creatures from the last twenty years or so on display. Some are in perfect condition, others are "skinned" to show off the mechanics inside. I think the admission may be free or a small "donation" at the door. If you're in town, take a look!

EDIT:
For you fans of the Movie "Labyrinth", there's going to be a screening with props and discussions with members of the Henson Company:
