I know, but I just like reminding myself of the fact that I hadn't ever considered such a design until I saw the first test video you posted

It's a bit of a toss-up I guess; if you go for the serious crushing power you could cause some brilliant damage, but on the downside you have to build the chassis strong enough to cope, and even then, most folk will probably tell you to back off before you get the chance to sink the claw in.
But with the grabber, the chassis doesn't have to be as much of a tank and you can pick people up at your leisure and dump them in the pit :P
