How long will the Wonderclaw Event last?
The Wonderclaw Event will last for 10 days, from August 13th-23rd. Nigel the Chia will be handing out prizes on the Wonderclaw event every day of the event, but Bigsby’s scavenger hunt will only last for 7 days.
How long will Bigsby’s Scavenger Hunt last?
Bigsby would like to get his machines running in time for Neo York, so his scavenger hunt will begin on Aug 13th and end on Aug 20th 2026 (end of day). Day 1 of the event will actually be two days, running through Aug 14th 2026. The final prizes will be awarded on Aug 21st 2026, but you can come anytime after the event ends to claim them.
How long will I have to claim my prizes for Bigsby’s Scavenger Hunt?
You will have until 23:59:59 on August 23rd to claim your prize for Bigsby’s Scavenger Hunt. The avatar can be claimed any time after the event ends, however, though you do need to collect all seven Wondercogs before the event ends!
Will there be any special bonus prizes?
Yes! There will be a few different kinds of bonus final prizes (including a Premium final prize) awarded at the end of the event. If you want a chance at all of them, then do your best to find all of Bigsby’s Wondercogs on each day they are released!
Do I have to collect all the Wondercogs on the day their hint is revealed?
No. You can miss a day and still participate. As long as you find all the Wondercogs within the event period, no matter which day you claim each Wondercog on, you’ll be able to claim your prizes!

*Clank!* *Clank!* *Chugga-chugga-chugga...* *WHIRRRR!*
Bigsby: And that'll do it! Another machine nearly finished. Just a few more steps and the Wonderclaw arcade will be ready for operation!
Nigel: Great to hear, Bigs. But what's the exact ETA on that again? See, the shareholders don't like waiting, and-
*Doot doot-doot doot doot!*
Nigel: That'll be them now. I gotta take this. By the way, Bigs you've got a customer.
Bigsby: I do? Oh, dear. I'm afraid the arcade isn't open yet, chum. But never fear, I'm on schedule to get everything operating soon. Just a few more adjustments to the machines left to go, but I'm a few cogs short of a clock at the moment, I'm afraid.
It'll take me some time to get the parts I need, so in the meantime, I'll have to ask you to—
Nigel: Change of plans, Bigsby! The bigwigs want to move up the timeline. Expedite the returns, speed the deliverables, all that jazz.
Bigsby: Buh— Wha?! Nigel, I understand the impatience, but I can't work with what I don't have! And it'll take a few weeks for me to get the Wondercogs I need, and then put them in place and make sure everything's working...
Nigel: I get that, Bigs, I really do, but you know how things are. Can't argue with what they want. But, hey – lookie here, we got someone rarin' to get to the arcade, and you need a helping hand I can't offer due to my own deadlines coming up. Why not work out some kinda trade deal, here?
Bigsby: A deal, you say? Well, if our friend here is amenable to it... it would certainly save me a few ticks to have your help fetching some of the parts I need!
Nigel: That settles it, then. And we'll reward ya for your efforts, promise. Just come back here every day to help ol' Bigsby here find his wondermawhozits-
Bigsby: Wondercogs.
Nigel: Yeah, those things. He'll tell ya where to find them, then you can come see me at the Wonderclaw arcade to get some free Wonderclaw swag for your effort. Deal? Deal.
Bigsby: ...Goodness, he's a quick wheel-and-dealer. But he's an honest Chia, and a good friend, so I promise he's good for his word. As am I! So thank you in advance for helping me out. Shall I tell you now where you can help me find the first Wondercog I need?

Clues:

Day 1: Bigsby: Brr, it's cold in here! That's what I get for fixing the arcade's AC first... Actually, that reminds me I haven't visited my old friend on Terror Mountain in a while. It's because I'm not a fan of the cold, but I really should stop by his workshop sometime soon. He might be able to help me tinker with these machines!

Day 1: Donny's Toy Repair Shop

You found a Wondercog!
As you enter into Donny's shop, he looks up from one of the toys he's tinkering with. You can see that the inside of it is full of clockwork, cogs and springs, and wonder if any of those will work for Bigsby's machines.
"Can I help ye?" Donny asks, gruff. He's probably not happy that you interrupted his work, so you quickly tell him that you're there for Bigsby Shadington, and that he needs some special cogs for his arcade machines.
As you speak, Donny's face lights up. "Bigsby? Why didn't ye just say so!" Donny laughs and gets up from his seat, offering you a coffee. You politely decline, and he busies himself searching for something instead. "I'm sure I got a spare cog or two lyin' about here. One o' them special ones he's always needin'..."
He rummages around in one of his many workbenches, and pulls out a strange, unique-looking cog. That must be a Wondercog! "Will this here do ye right?"
You tell him yes, and thank him for his help. He sees you out with a smile, and says, "Once he's done with those blasted machines, make sure ye get ol' Bigsby to come round for a visit, would ye?"
Congratulations! You got a Wondercog!

Wonderclaw Daily Prizes:

Day 1:

Ah, you must be one of Mr. Shadington's friends. He's got me here keeping an eye on the arcade while he's busy fixing the machines. Happy to do it, of course – and the best part, I can keep an eye on my investments from here! You should check your stocks too, by the by, and buy a few more while you're at it. But I digress. I've got a gift to give you on behalf of old Bigsby. Take it, and don't forget to come back for the grand opening on 8/21.
Now if you'll excuse me, I must get back to business. *Ahem...* Buy, sell, buy, sell!

Thanks Pickles!! I am glad PPT was up long enough for you to post this, or I would have completely missed day 1!

Fingers crossed that PPT stays up long enough for posting this week. It is running better, but it isn't great just yet. It does seem to be self-recovering better for the last 2 days.

Good news is that Day 1 is extended, so tomorrow we won't have anything new...I THINK.

My premium bonus today was a Springabee. I already have 2. Ah, well.
