About this MOC

This LEGO claw machine MOC is a 53-piece arcade cabinet in red and gray, with clear panels around the prize case and a white claw visible inside. The front has a rounded light gray control desk with a joystick, a recessed prize chute opening on the left, and a red top above a gray frame. Four black feet lift the cabinet off the ground, and the red lower body is kept simple so the glass case stands out.

It measures 6 x 6 studs and stands 6.9 cm tall, so it builds quickly and suits kids and beginners who want a recognizable arcade piece. The transparent panels and the curved control desk are the highlights, and the red and gray color blocking keeps it clean from every angle. Follow the free step-by-step instructions online, then set it up in a minifigure arcade, a game room display or on a desk next to other retro gaming decor.

This is a custom MOC, not an official LEGO claw machine set. It fits right in with the other arcade builds on the site: the arcade machine, air hockey table, basketball arcade game, bowling lane and gumball machine.
