I think the info above is what I will use for all the machines. I think they are all self explanatory except claw stop and actual grab %. The claw stop is whether when the claw lowers it stops going down because of pressure or because of time. There are some claws that just keep going down until a certain amount of time before it comes back up and grabs. The actual grab % is the time percent of the time that the claw actually grabs full strength. This is set by the person running the machine and it is different for different machines. However to throw a wrench into it the grab power of the claw can also be set. So you could have a machine that grabs at the full strength everytime but the strength could be at 75% instead of the 100%. There are many variables but hopefully with this we can cut the machines edge and find the easiest machines out there.

The prizes are good and you should def. play this machine if you see someone playing it first in front of you and they do not have the strong grab.


I lost my camera or I would post some pictures of the prize and the machine.
