Animatronic

Animatronics are a type of sentient robots.
==Description==
Regular animatronics are robots focusing more on mimicking life than on actual efficiency, used in theme parks such as Disneyland. Combining their technology with artificial intelligence allows geniuses such as the Mad Doctor to create entire artificial people as animatronics, whether independent beings or copies of existing flesh-and-blood people. The Doctor and his apprentice Gremlin Prescott created many Animatronics to populate Wasteland, including copies of Mickey Mouse's friends and family (at the request of Oswald Rabbit, who wished to have everything that "the mouse" had).
At some point before 2010, the Mad Doc also whipped up a way to turn human beings into animatronics, either completely or partially, using a bulky electronic device. He used it to turn a number of Tortooga pirates into robotic minions, rewiring their minds as he had their bodies, and later partially turned himself into an animatronic in an attempt to make himself immune to the Shadow Blot's attacks. It is also possible to turn different types of robots into Animatronics, as demonstrated with Tik-Tok, whom the Mad Doctor once repaired with Animatronic tech and reprogrammed into a loyal henchman for him and Prescott.

==Behind the scenes==
Living Animatronics are seen throughout the Epic Mickey series. They are, of course, named after (and loosely based on) real-life animatronics, famously used by the Walt Disney Company in their theme parks, a fact referenced by a few earlier in-universe works such as A Fun-Filled Visit to Walt Disney World with Mickey Mouse (1972).
