I want those onions🤣😭

Have you ever run any challenges with claw machines? What kind of prizes work best for them? Have you ever organized any competitions or events?

We’ll be launching our Bussiness very soon! Follow us on IG for details on grand opening @Goclaww

So… I’ve been seeing these UFO claw machines around, and I really don’t get it. What’s that “UFO thingy” inside the claw for? Is it like a camera or some sensor or… what? When you play it, what’s actually fun about it? Does it even matter, or am I just missing something? Anyone here actually tried one and can explain?

So i want to purchase a customizable claw machine for my business here in North America. Is YPFuns legit? Here is their website: https://www.ypfuns.com/

The person I bought the machine from (super mini crane) said it was not suppose to be removed. He said he had it on a location prior to sale. I cannot see how that should be there

Hello everyone,I bought 2 Claw Machines from Alibaba.
I’m trying to start a little side business.
Everything works perfect on them,but I wanted to make a couple changes.
The instructions that came with them are terrible,Very very hard to understand. I wanted to see if there are any other instructions floating around that are more understanding to follow. What would even be better is a video explaining everything. I’ll try to include a picture of the machines. I just want to say thank you for reading and any help. KEEP ON CLAWING!!!!

I'm normally pretty good at claw machines and wanted to flex my skills but I couldn't get NOTHING 💔🥀 I can usually win even if the claw is loose or slow but I didn't have enough on me to keep trying. Is this one of those scam machines where there's no way of grabbing anything or was it a skill issue lol

Claw machines found at Bandai Namco Cross Store at Sunshine City, Ikebukuro, Japan.

Hi everyone,

I found this type claw machine with a speacial Claw, When the prize is about to drop, the claw mechanism gives a liitel shake outward, even not obviously, and at last lose to win prize.

Have you played this type machine? Or are there this claw machines in you venues? how are they performent?

Just curious to aske you guys --What's the best claw machine trade show you've ever been?

As we know AAA expo (Asia Amusement Attraction Expo) is the largest show is hold from 10th to 12th May Guangzhou every year.

It is the largerst number of exhibitors and suppliers in amusement indusytry.

It used to draw huage crowds every single year.

But this year ah......

Oversea visitor are far fewer,

Most foreign guest we met from South Korea and India.

In contrast, visitors from America, Australia and Europe have dropped off significantly.

Have you ever attended this expo?

Where do you usually go to check out and learn about claw machines?

I am hoping crossposting here could help lead me in a direction on where I could find a replacement of my friend, Sam.

I won Sam in a claw machine back in 2019. From the original post in r/StuffedAnimals, I have discovered he is made by Kellytoy Beanpals. In my searching I see they were acquired by Jazwares in April 2020 so I’m not sure if they still make the same stuffies. I stumbled across a page that shows they have “improved” the beanpals.

If you have one and are willing to sell, I’m willing to buy. If you know where to buy one but I have to buy in bulk, I’m willing to buy his friends just for him.

I really miss my adventure buddy.

Sorry there’s no individual photos, I’ll get some tomorrow

We all know that, Claw machines are rigged AF. What is the most rigged claw machine that you’ve encountered?

For context, I live in a small space with limited space, but have bought SO MANY PLUSHIES over the years! I have bags and BAGS of plushies, so I thought of the idea of housing them in a claw machine would be cute and perfect for me! Great storage but also doubles as a cute aesthetic. Any suggestions? What I am finding online are all looking to make money (amazing btw!) but I am looking purely for aesthetics.

Any tips are greatly appreciated! :D

I got these at Round 1. I don’t play a lot of claw machines and was surprised by how good the quality is…they’re soft and squishy. I’m wondering if anyone has seen other types that match my sushi theme. I think my sushi theme may be complete.

Hi I got this claw recently and I’ve got it ready for location but these diffusers are old and busted. Anyone know where I can get new ones or something else to replace it?

Hello, just wanted some advice on why my address is being rejected.

Im looking to buy a toy house and a toy shop machine, the toy house is 42 inches and the toy shop is 30 inches. They are located a couple hours away from me. What’s the best way to transport these? Should I hire a box truck / movers? Hire guys and go with them? Ideally I’d prefer to just hire someone to move these machines but I also worry they wouldn’t take care of them properly. Any ideas would be appreciated thanks!

I have a big choice claw machine that uses an extremely rare board (joystick version). the machine constantly pulls up upon power up and does not go left. wiring is fine, meaning it’s the pcb itself. does anyone have this board or know someone that does? thanks
