CEC Type 5 - "Baby Mouse Head" (2013-2018)

​

OVERVIEW

The design changed one last time in 2013 to create the Type 5 series. This series lasted only four years before Chuck E. Cheese’s decided to abandon token use altogether in favor of rewards cards in 2017. Although officially CEC token production ended in 2016, a few franchises produced tokens through 2018.

Breaking with the last two types, the Type 5 obverse is different from the reverse. The obverse has a picture of an electric guitar.

REVERSE DESIGN

The reverse has the new motto, "Chuck E. Rocks" and includes an even younger version of Chuck E. often referred to as the "Baby Mouse Head" design.
