SINGAPORE – Five Labubu dolls worth about $300 were reported stolen in Yishun after three boys were seen tilting a claw machine on the morning of Nov 18. In response to The Straits Times’ queries, the police confirmed they were informed and are investigating the incident that took place outside a pet shop at Block 930 Yishun Central 1. Mr Derrick He, who owns Little Pets Kingdom and the claw machine, said he noticed that the wires above the machine were dislodged from the beam above when he arrived at work at 9.30am. Upon closer inspection, he noticed that five of the 11 Labubu dolls from “The Monsters Tasty Macarons Series” were missing from the machine. CCTV camera footage seen by ST shows three boys playing with the claw machine at around 6.30am, with no luck at winning the dolls. Two of them are later seen grabbing the claw machine from opposite sides and trying to tilt it. In another attempt at around 7am, the two boys can be seen tilting the machine to one side, while the third boy lifts it slightly off the ground.
