Claw World: Catch Me If You Can

As part of our new adventure exploring claw stores across Las Vegas, my son insisted on taking me to one of his favorite spots: Claw World.

When I asked him why this place stood out, his answer came fast and confident—“Labubu.”

That was reason enough to check it out, and soon I understood exactly what he meant.

Claw World is located on the corner of Durango and Flamingo, just a few doors down from Sushi Koma and What’s Crêpe, making it a convenient stop for families.

From the moment we stepped inside, the energy felt different—brighter, more playful, and focused entirely on the prizes that fill the machines.

The Labubu Craze

If you haven’t heard of Labubu, you will soon—at least if you have kids who are into collectibles.

At Claw World, the walls of machines aren’t just lined with random plushies. Instead, you’ll find familiar, highly sought-after characters, from Pokémon favorites like Pikachu to no fewer than fifteen variations of Labubu.

For kids (and plenty of adults), this makes the experience exciting and memorable—it’s not just about winning any toy, but about chasing the character you’ve been eyeing for weeks.

How the Games Work

The concept here is familiar: you buy tokens and start playing. Each machine is labeled clearly, with costs ranging from one token to five, depending on the size of the prize and the type of machine.

The variety of options means everyone in the family can find a machine that matches their comfort level and patience.

Younger kids might find it challenging, but that’s where parents step in to lend a hand—and maybe sneak in a turn themselves.

Trading Up for Bigger Wins

One unique perk at Claw World is the ability to trade smaller prizes for bigger plushies.

After picking up a couple of smaller wins, my son and I were able to exchange them for one larger character plush.

This trade-up system keeps the fun going and ensures that kids walk away with something they’ll be excited to show off at home.

A Family-Friendly Atmosphere

Cleanliness and organization stand out at Claw World. The machines are well-maintained, and the plushies are neatly stocked.

There’s also a flower-filled Instagram corner with the playful slogan, “Catch Me if You Can,” which makes for a fun family photo before you leave.

These details add to the sense that this isn’t just another arcade, but a carefully designed space for families to enjoy together.

Quality Prizes That Kids Recognize

Instead of generic plushies, Claw World focuses on branded characters kids are actually excited about. From Labubu to Pokémon, the recognizable lineup adds a level of thrill you don’t always find in claw stores.

Positive Energy All Around

With helpful staff, clean surroundings, and a steady flow of happy families, the atmosphere is upbeat. Even when kids don’t win right away, the environment encourages persistence and excitement, rather than frustration.

A Spot Worth the Hype

Online reviews rave about Claw World, and now I see why. It’s clean, well-organized, and filled with prizes that kids actually want.

The trade-up option is a clever touch, and the Instagram corner adds a layer of fun for parents who want to capture the outing.

Most importantly, it’s a place where kids can share the claw craze with their parents and siblings—and walk out with a plushie they’re proud of.

For us, Claw World was more than just another stop; it was a reminder of how small, simple activities can spark big joy.
