Vending Machines with the claws/grippers?? (1 Viewer)

[tallkid34]

Anyone play these much? I get a rush when the prize is hanging in the air and it's so satisfying winning something out of the machine. I was at Galaxyworld the other night and I got 3 toy dogs for my gf out of the same machine (asian chick employee behind me was staring at my gf afterwards, hahaha).

Similar experiences anyone??

those are rigged.
you'll only get it 1 out of 3, 5, or 10 chances depending on how the machine is calibrated.

the claw/hook is calibrated to drop the weight after a period of time/and or if the load of it is heavy.

dude, so there with you, addicted to all of those skill tester type games, not such a fan of the claw ones, but the cadbury ones are good sometimes and this random tetris type one ive found at a shopping complex is my eternal enemy...

I'll give them a go every once in a while. Last time I won a watch. Shame I don't wear watches...

Claw machines remind me of this: http://au.youtube.com/watch?v=qEcyBVr9jnI

Haven't played one for ages, and stuffed animal ones are sh*t they are so hard to pick up and always manages to start slipping out as soon as it's picked up.
