The '''Armored Toad''' is the boss of [[Toad Story]], and the second boss of ''[[Rayman Legends]]''. It resembles a giant toad in a mechanical suit, and it can shoot missiles out of its hands. It is called upon by a Dark Teensie. Once defeated, it crashes into a castle, and the castle collapses.

==~~Apearance~~==

The '''Armored Toad''' is the second boss of ''[[Rayman Legends]]''. He is found in [[Toad Story]], where he is called upon by a [[Dark Teensy]] to fight the heroes.

It resembles a giant toad in a mechanical suit. As the fight continues, it loses more of its ~~armor~~ until it ends up practically naked, with only a red thong to cover it. ~~He also seems~~ to be the ~~only boss~~ that ~~was not render~~ in 3D (and ~~not counting~~ the ~~bosses~~ in ~~Back~~ to ~~Origins)~~. [[Category:Bosses from Rayman Legends]]

==Appearance==

The Armored Toad resembles a giant [[Toad (Rayman Legends)|toad]] in a mechanical suit. He also appears to be the only boss in ''[[Rayman Legends]]'' not to be rendered in 3D in-game, save for the ones in [[Back to Origins]].

==In ''Rayman Legends''==

Upon being called by a [[Dark Teensy]], the Armored Toad proceeds to attack the heroes by shooting [[live missile]]s at them from his hands. In order to damage him, [[Rayman]] and his friends must use the [[Flying Punch]] they just received from the [[Elder Teensy]] to hit him when he is vulnerable. As the fight continues, the Armored Toad loses more of its armour until he ends up practically naked, with only a red thong to cover him. Once defeated, he crashes into a castle, and the castle collapses.

The Armored Toad notably makes an appearance in 3D in the [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_IQuDbycE3k E3 2013 trailer for the game], in which he is seen holding [[Rayman]] captive, only for [[Barbara]] to arrive, break through his army of regular [[Toad (Rayman Legends)|toads]], dodge his [[live missile]]s and strike him in the chest with her axe, allowing the heroes to escape.

==In ''Rayman: The Board Game''==

The Armored Toad is set to be included as a Level 1 boss in ''[[Rayman: The Board Game]]''. He has the following Boss card and three Special Attack cards:

*Boss card: The Boss has a Movement value of 7. It can be adjusted to 6 or 8 for an easier or harder experience. When the Armored Toad moves and crosses the player’s path, it pushes them back one space in addition to the damage they take.

* Resistance: All enemies require 2 slaps to be defeated until the next round.

* Scream: All players on the 2nd and 3rd levels fall down one level and take damage if they land on an obstacle or enemy.

* Stun: All players in the same column as, or in a column adjacent to, the Armored Toad randomly discard 2 Bonus cards.

The red [[live missile]]s that he fires are also set to be included as projectiles.
