History
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, and Mini Donkey Kong toys as well.
Mini Toads are playable characters in this game as well, but Special Kit 1 (which is unlocked by completing 3 minigames) 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.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!
Mini Toads appear again in the third installment Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Minis March Again!. After beating Jungle Rumble's DK level, the Rooftop levels become accessible. Mini Toads are found in the first three levels. After beating them, Mini Toad is unlocked to be used in Construction Mode, where it can be used along with other Minis. It can also be selected to replace Mini Marios in most levels (aside from DK, Key and Rooftop levels) but act the same. Selecting "Minis" will make Mini Toad appear alongside other Minis.
Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!
The Mini Toads reappear in Mario vs. Donkey Kong: Mini-Land Mayhem!. Here, Mini Toad's spots are blue instead of red. In the main worlds, it appears in the fourth level of every world in a capsule that another Mini must walk into to break. It becomes available from the start in the Construction Zone to use in the Multi Door option, and can be unlocked for use outside of that option by submitting a level to the Challenge Mode contest. In plus mode, Mini Toads appear in many levels alongside other minis, and it must be taken to the goal in the right order.
Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move
Mini Toads once again appear in Mario and Donkey Kong: Minis on the Move. In this game, the Mini Toads retain their blue coloration from Mini-Land Mayhem!. The Mini Toad is unlocked as a playable character by unlocking the Many Mini Mayhem mode in the main game.
