The Mini Toads are Toad toys sold by the Mario Toy Company. They first appear in Mario vs. Donkey Kong 2: March of the Minis.

The success of the Mario Toy Company's earlier toys, the Mini Marios, was so great that it allowed them to expand to sell other mini toys, including Mini Peach, Mini Toad, and Mini Donkey Kong toys as well.

Mini Toads are playable characters in this game as well, but Special Kit 1 has to be unlocked first in order to use them. If a Mini Toad comes in contact with a Fire Flower, it will become a Fire Mini Toad.

Mini Toads appear again in the third installment Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!. They can be unlocked for use in the main game and in the Construction Zone by beating Rooftop levels 1, 2, 3.

The Mini Toads reappear in Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!. They will be playable as in the other games of the series. Additionally, the Mini Toads are the second type of Minis that the player encounters during gameplay (the first being the Mini Marios). However, a key difference is that the spots on the Mini Toads' heads are shown to be blue instead of red in this game, giving them a coloration very similar to Blue Toad or Toad's original coloration from Super Mario Bros. 2. In Mini-Land Mayhem, Mini Toads was most likely given blue instead of red spots for two reasons:

  1. Blue Toad was a playable character in New Super Mario Bros. Wii.
  2. Mini-Mario's exit was already red, so Mini-Toad had to get a different color.

Trivia

  • Strangely, they are the only mini toy without a wind-up key and legs. In Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!, however, they do have a wind-up key.
