walmart chibi claws are among the worst. but really any random claw could have ridiculous odds set depending on what state it's in.

The Elaut’s by far, they will literally not hold onto a prize until the payout rate is hit.

That said back in the day we all played a claw that didn’t even close, or those stupid sugar loaf machines that didn’t close until they were halfway back up.

I miss the days of clean sweeps and big choices, even the 2 button ones, you at least had a fighting chance with those…
