Munch Jr. is a prop character on the Munch's Make Believe Band 3-Stage set up at Chuck E. Cheese. He is a small purple creature who served as the literal "junior" to Mr. Munch in the Tux era, before being rebranded as the little brother to Mr. Munch in the Rockstar era.
History[]
Munch Jr. was initially created as a retrofit of Choo-Choo, a member of the Rock-afire Explosion during Concept Unification.
During the 1990s, the Munch Jr. animatronics were removed from many of the 3-Stages with their spots being boarded up and carpeted over, mainly due to either being vandalized by children or not working properly. The last Munch Jr. animatronic was located in Wilmington, NC. Because programming for Munch Jr. stopped in the mid 2010s, Wilmington's Munch Jr. would rarely move. In 2020, amid the COVID-19 pandemic, the store closed, making his animatronic extinct.
Beginning in 2019, a Munch Jr. puppet began appearing as a background character, initially making a cameo appearance in "Zorp-Ah-Glorp Dor-Bah is Coming Tonight".
Since 2022, a replica Munch Jr. has existed at the Charlotte "Pineville", North Carolina location. It was built by a technician of said location.
Trivia[]
- Despite Munch Jr.'s presence onstage, none of the other characters ever noticed, acknowledged, mentioned, or even interacted with him.
- Munch Jr.'s relation to Munch prior to the Rockstar era was unknown, though the "Jr." part of his name might've implied that he was Munch's son.
- Only one original Munch Jr. animatronic was known to survive, being shown at a Chuck E. Con.
