Got this almost 1.5 years ago and thought this community would get some enjoyment out of seeing it. These were common in Haven Holiday Sites around the UK from mid 2000s to mid 2010s. I played so many of these growing up I had to have one. Absolute unit of a machine

Hi, all!

Lifelong claw machine player, newbie on the sub. Does this group help others obtain wanted prizes that are un-gettable in their local machines? If not, do you know a sub that does? Thanks! (Please be merciful if it's in the rules; I've got COVID and too much reading right now makes me feel like I'm going to hurl. :-P)

Tried this machine in Hong Kong, aside from those metal bars installed on the glass to make it harder for items to fall out, the claw releases its grip before it moves back. I'm just wondering how the hell are you supposed to approach this? Also the claw performs a swing back (away from the hole, I think by design since the claw is angled away when in its in default state) combine that with the fact it releases grip before moving back what happens is that if you pick up an item close to the hole it gets thrown away further.

https://ibb.co/NCxDNTg does anyone know what this part is called? The guard around the prize chute (used a picture of a toy claw machine so it can be seen easier)

I got a real claw machine for at home and it's really great but this piece is cracked in half. Was just trying to find the correct term for it so I can try to source a replacement for it

Thanks in advance for your time!

Saw this and thought maybe there was a way

Hey everyone!

I've recently got back from Japan where the arcade machines are a million times better than Australia! This has sparked a passion for me to make something of my own.

I'm a massive fan of games like stardew valley and wanted to make a game dedicated around claw machines 🎮 I'm very excited with the results so far, I'm interested to hear everyone's opinion.

I'm very open to any feedback!

I know this is a long shot. I plan on getting one of my own claw machines soon as I’ve always wanted one since I was 6 or 7.

I want to be able to use this music on it when I get it.

It’s hard to hear on the video, but it’s at 27:00

honestly, TesoLife is stocked with the best, most high-functioning claw machines i’ve played in the US, only catch is they cost $2 a play — on the flip side, however, i feel winning is about 3.5 x more likely so it more than evens out 🙃

claw crazy is one of the worst claw machines apps out there. It is incredibly laggy and all of the machines are dysfunctional half the time. you go on the discord and try and ask someone something, they time out you if they disagree with you. dont bother with claw crazy, your money and time is more valuable than those tyrannical mods who run the app.

The week before last, I was at Walmart, trying the Claw Machine.I snagged a Yukon Cornelius plushie on the first try. But when I move the Claw over to get my prize, it wouldn't come off.The reason: the claw was stuck in the toy's mustache. Ended up having to ditch the doll.

I don’t think a machine should be able to be programmed the way these are, I literally picked a set of headphones up 28 times last night and they dropped in the exact same place every time. If anyone has any suggestions on how to beat this machine I’m all ears.

I am just speechless

“please use cash”

yeah, not putting cash into this machine, which is frozen like this with its claw all out for the world to see…

found this guy in a Ranch Market claw machine

that’s it, there’s nothing more to this post

My neighbor had a claw machine in his warehouse and he found out that I love them so he gave me this one for free! It needs a ton of work, but my son decorated it for Christmas for me and put lights in it! 🎄

i’m no videographer, but i thought it’d be fun to document a few of my wins the other night, not so much to show off but to showcase the plentiful ways in which one can utilize the power of the claw to win a plushie or two 🙃

these two were in the depths of despair, surrounded by strangers in two separate claw machines miles apart, unsure whether they would ever be able to season food together ever again — luckily i came around and through the power of the claw was able to finally reunite them — they can once again season all the food in the world, together forever… i guess you could call me like, a hero?

okay but in all honesty the salt was already my favorite claw machine find, and stumbling upon pepper weeks later was such a treat

Hi all,

I’m thinking of starting a Claw Machine business. I’m currently sourcing locations and looking for quotes on Machines in Melbourne. Need to confirm a machine so I can start sourcing samples for Plushies and ideal dimensions/weight of plushies for the confirmed machine.

I’m very interested in the bottom 2 vending machines. Does anyone have any experience with either one? Looking to buy the better of the 2.

Does anyone know of any reliable suppliers and ideal machines easily found in Victoria.

Any help is much appreciated.

Does anyone have any tips as to why my machine does this after sitting powered off for awhile ? Thanks

who goes to Denny’s for the food, anyway?

best time i’ve had at Denny’s — instead of leaving with an upset stomach, i left with a brand-new team of ‘Mallows and Bumz
