Pizza Planet was a animatronic restaurant chain. even though it was a failure at first trying to cash in the animatronic fast food trend they could't catch up with chuck e cheese. however the owner of Pizza Planet, Rick Novak soon heard about it he stole some money from a long time friend of his. he stole 190,000 dollars from him. Rick traveled far away from America to china. when he moved to shenzen he met his future wife Jiao Ming. however behind her back Novak dated other women and had children with them. annoyed by his wife's constant nagging, she also was suspicious of him cheating and eventually one night caught Novak sleeping with his assistant. She immediately kicked him out on the spot filing a divorce claim soon after. With little the little money he had decided to go back to America. Two years later in 1990 after Arron did sell the rights to showbiz decided to partner with Novak to create Pizza Space, basically a 2.0 of pizza planet but with rock afire explosion characters. The place had a karoke machine where you could sing along with the characters. There a pad similar to pick as song pad where a person could pick a song and sing along to it. The immediately became a hit somehow. Novak in an interview with Fletcher said "i mean I don't know hot it happened I mean it was a weekend success." Fletcher said " Well I think it was due to the karaoke we put up, you know it's a very unique aspect in a restaurant like Pizza Space". Eventually the place would overhaul having a Retrofutrism type of look with posters of future tech, places, and inventions of the future. They eventually replaced the rock afire explosion with the moon rockers to Arrons Delight and dismay. He still wanted the rockafire explosion to perform in the restaurant's. But Novak refused saying "They're not we want Arron". Soon Arron lost the rights to the moon rockers in a intense court battle Between Novak and the company and cut ties with Novak completely.
