Quite impressive!
I don't know much in terms of animatronics, but is he able to walk? I haven't seen any do that as of yet. o-o By the position he seems to be in, it looks like his legs at least support his weight without additional help.
Seems to cost quite a bit. But it would be interesting to see. If you're looking for a realistic costume for it, there's someone here on DA who makes very great ones. I think the username is IsabellaPrice.

Thank you!
Yes, he will be able to. We have a video up of Freddy 0.5 [because the legs were the only things done] showing the precursor to the system we'll be using now. He can support his weight, from what I know, but he won't be able to walk until we finish the head. That's when the Boss will be able to work on the balancing issues for independent movement. Everything in stages, and all.
It costs $3000 right now. Or, well, that's what we'll need from the fandom to finish him in a reasonable period of time. The Boss has put as much of his own money into Freddy as he can. I'll pass the name along to him, but we've got a lot more in mind for him than just walking. Any suit we make will need to be thin enough to support the 'nerves' that'll line the insides. The nerves will allow him to touch things and register how much pressure to use or how hot it is. He'll be able to hug people without crushing them too much! We just need to get the programming for that right...
I'll have a feature list written up detailing everything he'll do soon. I don't have time right now.

Our boss is the main engineer in our team, who builds Freddy. He is a professional with several years of experience in his field.
