Shop window animation devices

[megakid]

This is a bit random but my sister has a couple of gift shops and wishes to animate her shop windows using some sort of puppet/string device.

She's seen them in other stores and they are typically the size of a shoe box or two with 5-10 spinning/actuated nodes that you can connect strings to rise and lower things on a repetitive basis.

I've been googling for 2 hrs and can't find anything!

Anyone got anything? Thanks!

usually made for you to fit a specific purpose, or make them yourself, purchase the gears etc. online and connect a motor.

automaton device is a good start on google

Grace Brothers have some marvellous examples which are sure to delight and tantalise your discerning customers!!:

you may want to think twice about their Christmas display though, as it may result in loss of customers!!!
