Though of this one whilst looking at the deep fry vending machine idea. Take one of the crane games from an arcade. Add three or four 'death chutes'. Stock with irritatingly cute soft toys.
one of the death chutes could be a deep fryer, others that spring to mind are a combustion chamber, circular
saws and an acid bath.
The toys in these things are not normaly worth having anyway. This would add some excitement to a fairly dull contraption. Maybe you could retain the chute that leads to freedom, and the idea the becoming navigation of the obstacles; not dropping the toy into the death chutes (unless you want to!)

I see traumatized children. Surprised no one has mentioned cat uses yet. |

Traumatized children inside the machine? Nah, that sounds a little too harsh, doesn't it? |

|

how do you get the troll into the machine? |
|

That's easy. Tell him there's a great pole-pants idea in there... |
|

What does a deep fried teletu...whoops...furby taste like anyway? |

I'll have one of what you guys are having. |

How about a chute that pitches the toy into a batting cage? |
