TheOrcKing Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Again, looking for something else and ended up finding these brilliants MOC's instead. Check it out! Both built by Luke Watkins Hutchinson (aka Derfel Cadarn on flickr). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheOrcKing Posted January 15, 2013 Author Share Posted January 15, 2013 Being a fan of claw games, I love the MOC. Well done! I think it is rather brilliant! I do like the claw games, but they are so rigged. No really, they actually are programmed and built to never really pay out! Except for maybe once in a blue moon. I've read an owner's manual for a few of those and some are hardwired for the claw to barely have enough PSI to grab a hold of something once out of every 50 games! I swore that I read one with having the dip switch setting as high as 300,000! Maybe for Japan or someplace like that. I know here in the US that certain states have regulations that say how high of a setting any vendor can set those machines up with. Like in California, the claw must be strong enough to pick up a prize once every 12 games. Anyhow, I never could have come up with an practical use for that 'bubble' part. (I don't know what else to call it. Bricklink has the part listed as Cylinder Hemisphere 2x2 with cutout. So far has appeared in only three sets!) I love the Puzzle Bobble (or Bust-a-Move in the US) MOC and the original arcade game. Played that forever! Still do actually. That's right up there with Tetris.
