Merry Christmas we found some really cool Christmas claws at the Castle Park in Riverside,
California so hopefully we're gonna get another video that we'll see later in the new year but
for now I'm really excited for some Christmas claw content there's at least two behind me
one downstairs, yes I said downstairs and one on the other side it's a pretty unique little arcade
in here and we were able to get a $40 game card and they gave us a Christmas goodie bag
I love a bargain so we're already winners but uh let's see if we can win something else here today.
It was a really hard choice to figure out where we're gonna start this but we're gonna start
this on this dog and bear claw so there's a few like brown bear White Bear uh brown and white dog
just one dog maybe. I think it's just one dog. Just one just one dog okay spot okay so are you
going for a brown bear? Probably that brown bear that's like over here I guess let's see. All right
and the brown Bear's holding a little Christmas stocking I guess they all are it's pretty cute.
Okay so this claw is four credits I got five credits for a dollar by spending forty dollars
I guess. Okay. So let's see that makes it you know roughly a dollar in regular credits I guess. Okay
that's a good value this does not seem like a super expensive plushie it's a
nice generic plushie. Oh I think I've actually ran out of time on that one
that seemed a little silly but. I would do it one more time okay I know we do a lot of these
three but we might do some twosies today to see like what works better you have 30 seconds. Did
I run out of time? I'm gonna watch this time but. I didn't seem like I ran out of time maybe it was
a super sensitive button and I accidentally rested my pinky on it. Yeah that could have been in. Huh
all right let's see. A lot of their claws are open on one side too which is really nice. Oh
that was a much better grab uh still dropped it. So this is an E-Claw we usually say if it picks
it up above the Chute. Technically it did. Do you wanna do it a third okay we'll do the third time I
we've had bad claw luck on this trip so if you hear our hesitance it's just because we've had
some rough days um and I shouldn't let my opinion of one arcade carry over into the next because I
tell you guys not to do that so I need to free my mind of our bad experience. Oh that was terrible.
Okay well we did our three tries I want to look at this but I I don't see anything that looks
super winnable. That yellow one I want to try the yellow one once. Okay are you sure you don't want
to circle back to it? No I'm gonna try it once just once unless I feel really good about it,
panda's not a Christmas Belly Buddy. He's just here for moral support. It's
very nice of him. Also whatever is green under these. Oh what is that it's frogs.
One time that's all I wanted to try it was one time. I'm fired. You're fired. I'm fired
oh my gosh this is not the first time this has also happened on the trip. Oh it's got a little
wreath. Okay that's way cuter than the candy cane one. Oh yeah way cuter than the candy and I love
his little oh that is so adorable. No I'm I'm the worst. Check that out first one of the day.
Okay I think these gumballs are new this season so there's a snowman, a reindeer, a Yeti, and a Santa
and. Well I really like the yeti. I really like the yeti. It's not in a super winnable position,
the Santa if you look it's kind of like angled more. Those are little feet in the air. That's
his little feet yeah that's the bottom of Santa okay I'm gonna try at least once for the yeti
and if it doesn't work then I'll try for Santa. And yes I'm gonna interrupt you to say there are
Squishmallows to the left of us we're probably not gonna play that one unless we circle back
because there's a Christmas Squishmallow claw. Oh is there? Okay. And we're focused on Christmas
today. Today is Christmas. Well today's not Christmas but. Today is Christmas. No. Okay
oh good I did not hit the shoot oh see oh but it turned him.
What do I think about this. I don't know it didn't fit. The claw is like not big enough
is there claws even big enough for Gumball so you're gonna have to get a really strong
grab. I'm gonna try the yeti one more time. Okay I would agree with that I mean it went really well
or went not badly. Okay let's see if I hit the Chute though this time oh it did it barely did
okay okay one time for Santa then you know. Well you freed Santa let's look around here
on the side so now Santa has nothing around him except for obviously what's behind him but I
think if you angle it a little bit forward you know how the claw sometimes will like fall down
that's not a bad idea let's try once to see I'm actually gonna stay over here. Yeah you do that.
Okay now you have to help me line it up. Okay oh gosh I don't like that responsibility I guess
back a little bit yeah I don't want this job yes. You signed up for this.
Oh. That was worse than the Yeti grab. That wasn't my fault
it wasn't my fault say it. It wasn't your fault? I don't know how that wasn't your fault. Stop! Okay
let's go to the Squishmallow claw and come back. See we promised a Christmas Squishmallow claw now
I'm upset because there's no penguin with a wreath oh in the in the Playfield at all. Oh I don't even
see one because oh no there's one deep down in there it's like underneath that snowman you
can kind of see. Okay now I don't know if they allow trades or not we would obviously inquire
um because there's no harm in inquiring you just you know always expect a no and that's that's okay
and that's polite um. There's a lot of options in this machine to go for though. Yes what are
you gonna do are you gonna go for a cupcake? A snowman? I'm gonna go for the Christmas poop.
The cupcake. Yeah yeah that's what I said. Hmm. I mean if you're looking at it from your angle
there's no face on that thing it looks like a Christmas poop. Okay. I'm saying it. One of the
poops has escaped over here though. Oh no I yeah that'll never happen all right so let's try for
it first it's pretty far away but it's pretty on its own. Okay and do we think it being on its side
is beneficial? I think so I'd rather it be flat I guess on its back but we'll see what happens. Okay
and again a lot of the claws here have one side open which I think is great it allows for a fair
gameplay. Oh yeah look at that okay so it did pick it up. Okay okay um are you still gonna go
for the the cupcake there I think that's still the best option. You do okay yeah try that or
the white thing to the fox uh arctic fox? I think it's an arctic fox and I think his or her little
head is too deep. Well we'll try this one more time. The cupcake is free like it's not wedged
in anything. Okay let's see it is still standing kind of upright now but on it's head. Yeah.
Okay here we go oh it got the elf in there. Okay well. Okay now it's back in kind of a
it's the same place it's just upside down from where it was. It's a little flatter I think.
Okay but it's not moving it at all like any real distance it kind of just keeps dropping
it in the same spot which is not ideal. All right let's see this is gonna be good for us.
Okay take three the elf again kind of got in the way. Yes!
Oh yes you're amazing today Spencer! We did it was that our third play? It was
our third play. Wow okay that's what we say. That was a crazy grab. That was a fantastic
grab look at that. So you guys can kind of see how we try to assess the situation see
how high it's picking it up hopefully seeing us do it helps you when you guys go to the arcades
it's kind of cute do I like it? It's a lovely Christmas poop. Okay drop a comment penguin or
cupcake? Um what would you pick? So we have a nice holiday display of Squishmallows at home
I'm trying to think of what will fit in there I gotta think about this one. Okay we found
this this one's actually on the back side of the Squishmallow claw like we said they only put them
in like groupings of two so you can kind of see around one side and if you see back here there are
really cute like Christmas parka penguins and even though this is extremely easy looking to win up
here Katie wants to go over the purple Christmas penguin so she's getting that big look around
how far oh yeah I see it's pretty close to the front there. Okay are you ready? Yeah go ahead.
I am nervous yes. Is that as far right as you could go or is that? Yes. That was as far right
oh oh it dropped it pretty much in the same spot I thought it had it. I'm worried it moved it too
far forward. Try it one more time try for that. I really wanted it. Oh there's some rogue Care Bears
in the front here. We don't want that we don't want the rogue Care Bears we definitely want this
penguin oh and there's really cute Christmas dogs and antlers over there. So this is as far right
and as for forward which is I think what we're gonna do. Okay it's far right and far forward I've
been in that spot before let's see and a beautiful drop a hit on the hat
didn't pick it up man what are you thinking Katie do you want to give one more try for that and then
if not go for this beautiful snowman up here? What do you think about this one too far to the
right? Oh I think that's too far to the right yeah because you barely. Same with this one.
Oh it's buried. Okay what if I went a little bit back and tried to tried more of the head.
I would honestly just try the front forward again for that all the way forward and all
the way right. I feel like it caught its butt too much. I don't know I mean it was all done
the spin of the claws sometimes it'll it'll be different when you try it again so you went back?
Why even ask me anymore? I don't know. You're not gonna listen to what I say. Let's just see if this
works, it's not going to. Okay whatever so she's gone a little bit back and a little bit left. That
did what I wanted but I caught the other one. Yeah it's gonna catch the other one because it's too
far to left in front what are you gonna do? I'm gonna go for the snowman. Go for the Snowman uh
yeah we didn't ask about I mean we literally just finished with the Squishmallow as well we didn't
ask if we can trade here I think I'd rather trade this for the penguin than the Squishmallow for the
penguin. Can you help me front to back then. Uh go a little bit back so you don't hit the chute
that's good right there whoa whoa whoa a little bit more forward that's fine I guess. Is that
good? Yeah that's good right there I just don't want you to hit the chute, let's see this is right
up here yeah oh it's still kind of hit the chute but is it enough to flip it in? Oh it flipped
it back try it again I think I would still go for that one because it's pretty open. Okay I
think this is my last try and then I'm gonna go for one of these dogs. Okay this last try these
just seem so much easier than the dogs because of their weight I'll go back a little tiny bit that
should be fine yeah give it a shot. Okay here we go. This is it okay a great grab it picked up the
head and the arm but it's still just not strong enough and moved it forward a little bit I think
this would be a great one for a casual win but we can move on to the dog if you want. All right so
we're on to the dogs now that was kind of a flop of this machine there's some a couple good options
it's definitely going to be a white dog all the gray dogs are buried. I like the gray one better.
I know that's kind of your problem today is that you like everything you can't win. That's that is
my problem yes. You're just gonna have to go for the white dog sorry the claw machine has decided
for you what are you gonna go for first that one by the chute. I hope I don't grab other one
though. Yeah I don't yeah it's kind of difficult to tell she's gonna go for that walk around here.
So I'm gonna try to go a little bit to the front of it and a little bit to the left a bit. Okay
I'm a little nervous you're gonna hit the chute if you go too far forward,
not too sensitive of a claw is it. I think this will be okay we'll try it.
That was pretty good it didn't do much though
it just didn't really close like enough time to really pick it up yeah unlike some of these other
ones. I don't know what I'm feeling. Is there a rogue random white dog in there too there is.
It's a unicorn. Oh is it oh it's this unicorn over in that machine. The rainbow tail didn't
give it away. Oh yeah. Should I try it one more time? Yeah try it one more time. Same one?
I don't know whatever you wanna do, but you can't try just once that's not what
we do here unless it's like really bad and that was okay it wasn't like that
it wasn't like the claw was broken it just didn't do a very good job
so let's see. Oh gosh that's crazy. Yeah you're swinging it like crazy
all right let's see. I don't know I
almost hit the button again. You almost hit the button okay we got 10 seconds.
Better grab yeah the gray dog is too close to it to close around it
I think we're out on this one. I gave him the card and I said do you want to
go downstairs to the other claw and he said no I'm doing this oh going for the penguin for me
you just went all the way to the right oh wait. It almost worked that will be the craziest win
in the history of wins if you dropped it from one claw into the other claw machine's chute.
Uh I don't think it'll happen I'll give it one more try. Okay. Because that would just
be insanity. That would be the best thing that had ever happened. This is actually gonna be
a good pickup though if the claw stays and doesn't turn this is going to be a good one.
Oh my gosh all right one last time let's see all right you ready okay
this is it this is our last play on this machine okay in totality.
Oh it's over the chute okay I lied. He lied this is wait will this one drop?
No E-Claws will not drop over the chute it will get angry at you yeah well it won't
no I can no longer pick it up oh it's out of play man oh I wish I could I would try.
I failed to mention something important to Spencer when I said there was another claw downstairs I
failed to mention that it was a UFO claw. It's gonna be so difficult. So let's talk about this
UFO claw is a uh two-pronged claw where they're on the side and I think it's because the top of
it looks like a UFO so to win a UFO claw and we don't we don't see these that often so we don't
talk about them often you're looking for something very much so with nothing on the left and right
sides so I think we're gonna go for this Frosty and see how his left and right sides are open for
scooping? There's also an element of balance to this you really want to get right in the middle
of the item because there's nothing to like grab onto it essentially it's going to kind of like
rest in it it it's kind of hard it's kind of hard um yeah this is not Christmas but to show you like
this dinosaur right here if you could kind of wedge it in the claw is another great way to do
that and you can see they've got a bigger UFO on this side oh this one's a smaller UFO so um
yeah. I mean I guess out of all these characters I would want Frosty as well so. Of course yes.
So I move it left and right with the joystick and then up okay and then as soon as I want it to drop
I hit it the two arms open up and it'll go down and then stop when it senses. Sometimes UFO claws
do have the buttons kind of like at the Round 1s we play at where you have to hold left and
right but this is just a joystick one. Oh I ran out of time. Okay well you were in a good place
and you guys see what I'm saying. Oh it dug so deep in there it's gonna flip it
yeah it went too deep so I wonder if I I don't know. If it has like a double tap I almost feel
like you'd have to win Frosty this way so that it would like wedge in between his leg and on
his top hat um and the only one I see like that is there is that where you're going?
Yeah I can't go that far left is the issue actually. Well it'll open up a little bit
left remember? Let me try it then I'll see. Seven seconds. Oh gosh. Five three two one
oh I didn't open up as far as I thought it would. I extremely
misled you. I thought so it's a tiny UFO so that's not gonna do anything for us I'm gonna
try one more time for this one and then that's it. Okay. We'll give it a three try attempt yeah
I I don't think I would have agreed to this if I knew it was UFO down here. Well it's still fun and
it um it's something different that we don't always get to do. That's true so I definitely
need to go farther up on it than it was to try to get that midpoint. Spencer won a UFO
claw one time for me but it was not on camera he went back to get a unicorn that I wanted.
That has no double tap feature on it so it wouldn't stop where I wanted it to. Well worth
trying I guess. Oh see that was okay I'm gonna try one more time. You see what happens guys?
We almost okay well we almost had that balance so it just still needs to go a
little bit further. I feel once it moves though it's just gonna fall out. It's gonna fall out
well let's try it I guess I definitely was better than I was hoping for so. It's getting strong
grabs every time so the issue is not the strength of the claw the issue is the physics of the grab.
I don't think that was far enough forward oh that one actually it
pushed it down so hard it's not going to get a good grab on it for the first time.
Oh did it loosen so was I long wrong about the claw strength? I don't know. It looks
like it almost loosened it out. I couldn't see it. One more time? Yeah I couldn't see it from
the front. I'm not gonna lie to you it looks like it loosened. Okay this is it then. Drop a
comment guys tell me if I'm crazy or not. I'm gonna go try to go for actually like at the
arms. That's kind of what happened last time it was right in his armpits and it worked out well
I mean well enough until it loosened. Well enough until it loosened yeah.
Okay I'm not really sure what's gonna happen it doesn't look
great okay it's got him in there again, see it loosens. Okay all right I guess
it's just on a payout and it's not ready to go yet so we'll leave it unfortunately.
We said we wanted to finish this video on a win so at the prize every time claw we
can't go wrong right? I've never messed this up before. Nope okay so we actually have a
Christmas duck claw this is incredible we have candy cane ducks we have snowflake ducks and a
random witch in there so don't. I'm gonna go for the frog with the witch hat. Do not go
for the frog with the witch hat please. Okay I'm gonna go for the ice cream cone. Please
go for one of the Christmas ducks. I like these little ghosts though. Please go for
one of the Christmas ducks. It's a ghost bear! Please go for one of the Christmas ducks this
is a Christmas video it is Christmas Day. It's not Christmas Day. Don't tell the people that,
yeah you've definitely never messed this up. Is this a play until you win? Yep
don't go for anything risky, oh gosh.
Guys what is she doing? Is she going for a multiple win?
No I was going for the green one on top but like
Did it work? Yes okay good it took away your one credit sometimes the sensors are bad it'll let
you keep playing but nicely done Katie a green duck with candy canes. I really was not doing
something crazy. Uh-huh. Okay that was a lot of fun a lot of unexpected but um because these are
two really big prizes and the duck you know but um a Squishmallow is always always a great win
and we love Belly Buddies so I would say out of all the claw machines here these are the two I
wanted to win the most um and well maybe there's some other things that I wanted but that's okay
I'll live but the gift bag actually was a great deal there's a bunch of really cool stuff inside
of here like really nice Christmas items and things um and this little pinwheel that's kind
of fun but it was a great value so it was forty dollars and we got the gift bag as well and then
we got some extra bonus plays like you know most arcades do so a great value uh the claws paid out
and were winnable and we had a really fun time at Castle Park so Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas!
