Bigsby's WonderCog Hunt

Bigsby Shadington is teaming up with his friend, Nigel, to bring Wonderclaw back to the NC Mall. Similar to the Festival of Neggs events, you will need to help find parts around Neopia to bring back to Bigsby so he can continue fixing the Wonderclaw machines. Bigsby's WonderCog Hunt began on August 13th, 2026 and will last until August 21st, 2026.

This event is not only in celebration of bringing back the Wonderclaw game to the NC Mall, but also Neopet's in-person NeoYork Pop-up Event which will take place from August 21st to August 23rd, 2026 in New York.

Since this is a site feature that gives out neopoint rewards and prizes, you may not participate in Bigsby's WonderCog Hunt on your side accounts. For more information look at our side accounts guide.

How to Play

The deadline for the Wonderclaw to open is sooner than Bigsby Shadington had thought. He will need help finding parts of his machines throughout Neopia. Each day, visit Bigsby to learn a clue of where a part may be around Neopia. Completing each clue the day-of will earn you prizes, including a bonus prize at the end of the event. Extra and bonus items will be given to Premium Subscribers. Missing a clue the day-of does not hinder you earning prizes. You will have until August 23rd, 2026 to complete all clues and collect all prizes.

Additionally, visiting Nigel at the Wonderclaw Arcade will earn you daily prizes. Again, bonus prizes will be given to Premium Subscribers. You must visit Nigel each day and click on him when he pops-up on the sides of the screen to receive prizes as you will not be able to collect for days before. There will also be moments where Nigel is not at the arcade. Come back in a couple of minutes and he will reappear for you to collect your prizes from.

Scene 1

*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.

Bigsby

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?

WonderCog Hunt Clues

Each day, Bigsby will share a clue of where a Wonderclaw machine part may be. Find the location of the clue, bring it back to Bigsby, and you will be rewarded for your help. The first day's clue will count as two days (ie: first day will be from August 13th to August 14th, with the second day's clue starting on August 15th).

Clues

August 13th-14th

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!
