Theres something funny with toad in mario kart 64.  He has legs!  Their hard to see but this is how you get to see them: start a grand prix and play with toad.  Make sure you come in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place in the overall grand prix.  When toad is on the podium and the have the camera facing the front of the winners,  look closly at toads car and you will see these long skinny legs from his body that stretch down to the pedals.  It's just kind of funny cause whenever else you see him he just has brown shoes on and no legs,  he would look creepy with legs!

But not as creepy if he wore pants, too.

Yup... not much to say...





Time is repeating itself. Why you say? Look at the Wii and NES and you'll know why.

It's a big deal for the same reason I freaked out when noticing that Luigi wore striped socks in some Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga artwork.
You didn't say wot wot.

And don't forget.  He had those socks in M & L:  partners in time.  Just check the front cover (everyone forgets about that game......).

I noticed that a long time ago, and still think it's a little weird.. The art for some of the games shows him with legs, and yet sometimes in-game, he has no legs. Mario Tennis 64 is a good example of this: the art had him in his tennis gear with short legs, yet in the game, he was just a mushroom shaped person with feet.

It baffles me when they do that.. was Toad meant to have legs, or not?

Personally, I kind of like him without legs, because it makes for some funny moments, such as in Double Dash.. if you have Toad as the weapons handler, and you steer left and right to the point where Toad's body waves back and forth, you'll see that his feet stay somewhat attached to the kart, and where his legs would be holding on to his feet, you'll see nothing!
Kinopio is the ultimate video game character! Who else can drive a kart, host parties, play tennis, give good advice and items, and is almost always happy??

But...but I like Luigi's socks...

Anyway, I also agree that Toad looks better without legs. Short, legless things are cute. Just look at Kirby.

It's true that toad is meant to have no legs.  It's probably only a mistake one of the artists made in the picture or they thought when they made it that he had legs.

Toad had legs in most games up until the N64 era.
