A springlock suit is a type of machinery that can function as both an animatronic and a costume. It has several spring-powered locking mechanisms that hold the endoskeleton parts back when the suit is worn by a person. However, these springlocks are very sensitive and can come loose if they are touched, lubricated, or exposed to moisture. If that happens, the endoskeleton parts will rapidly recoil and impale the wearer, causing a fatal injury
