Chris Runco was a Disney imagineer who worked on the original Star Tours ride at Disneyland. Runco designed Captain Rex, the pilot droid and main character of the attraction. Based on Runco's foam sculpt for the character, fellow imagineers Larry Sheldon and Lance Updyke created Rex animatronic puppets from aluminum.^[1]
