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.

Appearance

The Armored Toad resembles a giant 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 missiles at them from his hands. In order to damage him, Rayman and his friends must use the Blue 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.

Early concept art suggests that the Armored Toad was initially going to wear a helmet covering his face completely.[1] Another piece of concept art suggests that he would have captured Edith Up, a nymph from Rayman Origins.

The Armored Toad notably makes an appearance in 3D in the 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 toads, dodge his missiles and strike him in the chest with her axe, allowing the heroes to escape.
