breaking my silence with a rather extravagant soup today. how has everyone been?? I have been offline for so long but I’m going to try to get back into posting here. I might post an occasional non-furby picture of other nostalgic toys from my collection, I have so many interests right now it’s hard to focus on just one!

A few of my favourite 'collectable of the month' entries from an old spp blog

do you have more info. on Fifi La mue and the Mardi gras cats? I think they are really cool :)

here are some images I have of them:

Sure! Here's some information that friend of the blog @amazing-animatronics dug up about them:

"I found this mention in NY Daily News which says there were 7 cats and gives us their names:

1 million for seven computer-driven audio animatronic cats that sing, talk and “play” instruments. Fifi La Mue & the Mardi Gras Cats made their debut on Friday in the Bourbon Street Corridor and immediately became a fave attraction with visitors. The robots stand 3 feet tall in glittering costumes, and each has its very own stage. Besides Fifi, there’s Paws McCalico, Scratchpost Mulligan, Catfish Goodman, Fats Wailer, Landon LaFitte and Pee Wee.

This article from 2002 (when they were removed) also talks about them:

Those were actually state-of-the-art animatronics when they were first installed,“ explains Showboat spokesman Susan Tulino as we walked by the shuttered hovels of the unemployed cats. “But some of them were not in very good repair, and we decided they had run their course.”"

And here's the showtape for this show (audio only):

Here's what friend of the blog Kevin "Pasq Notrook" wrote for the description of this video: "Fifi La Mue & the Mardi Gras Cats is a show created by Landmark Entertainment Group for Showboat Atlantic City casino and hotel, it was located at the entrance. The soundtrack was produced by Ted King, voice of Paws McCalico. The voice of Fifi La Mue was provided by Diane Michelle. The characters have since been removed from Showboat Atlantic City and sold to animatronic builder Eric Princz."

Sorry for a copy-paste response, since you've likely already seen these posts, but this is pretty much all that's known about this show at the time. Hope that helps!
