Congrats! I got my #2, but my top 4 were honestly a toss up. I could have put that list on shuffle and been just as happy.

Here are the Batch 8 Toads!

Stats for this batch - Top 5 Most Popular:

No. 107 - Ancient magic Toad (by far the most popular – 6 people had this as their top pick!)

No. 104 – Grey and cream

No. 108 - Vaporwaves

No. 111 – Toad of the Woods

No. 098 – Celadon green

There were 16 available Toads to choose from for this batch and everyone was asked for their top 8 picks. Of the 16 people participating, 6 people got their first choice, 5 people got their second choice, 2 people got their third choice, 1 person got their fourth choice, and 2 people didn’t get any of their picks and decided to wait until the next batch.

I'll be offering out 101 (weathered brown/cream with logo) and 109 (retro colourblock) via the Toad lottery - so those who are on the waitlist can watch out for that email sometime in the next few days.

------

097 - City in ruins - Abalone button

098 - Celadon Green (inspired by celadon porcelain) - Lichen button

099 - Black with red logo - Ancient bog oak button

100 - Tarot Toad - Lichen button

101 - Weathered brown and cream 2-tone, with signature logo - Japanese text reads "toad" - Lichen button

102 - Soft green and cream with logo stamp - Lichen button

103 - Aqua fade with Japanese text - a simplified version of the word "toad" - Mammoth ivory button,

104 - Grey and cream with logo stamp - Lichen button

Dan, the vibrancy of the colors you're using!! You really killed it with this batch.

Favorites are 112, 108, and 97! But all are so great. Congrats new owners

All three of those were in my list. Ended up getting #97! Couldn't be more excited.

the Toad 110 and 111 make me want to cry...
I am very, very envious of their future traveling companion! enjoy guys!!

and .... I understand that there was a combination of circumstances ... but how the hell, the Toad 101 has not found a buyer?!

wow... what a wonderful lot... Well done Dan!!

 

[Vehmic]

112 really does it for me.

I suddenly understand why people get multiple variants of the same vape.

Beautiful batch

It's beautiful!

And, holy shit, 112 is fucking fantastic!!!

City in Ruins was my #3!!! congrats homie that is arguably the best button to ever leave Dan's shop IMO, and couldn't agree more, with so many to choose from it's really easy to be happy with what you get

I like to think the colors represented would satisfy the butterfly, nice monument of sorts

I'm still desperately waiting to see some trichomes preserved for eternity in one of Dan's buttons...

PS : and @Dan Morrison, I'm also desperately waiting for something else! ...and it does feel like an eternity!

Batch 2?

 

[KeroZen]

Batch 2?

Oh no I wouldn't dare pressuring him for that. It's something else altogether that has been on put on the back burner for way too long now. But he bloody knows what I'm talking about heh!

 

[Arawfish]

Does anyone know a good Jaw surgeon? Mine fell clean off of my face.

 

[seriousTone]

Holy smokes, incredible batch. These would have been one hell of a hard choice.

The colors on the body reminds me of the bi-pride flag colors.

I have a few items colored that way, but the butterfly wing in the button makes it awesome!

Envy is an ugly emotion.

I've therefore banned myself from this thread.

Simply gorgeous. Congratulations to all who have scored.

 

[99944nt]

this latest batch is a banger.. love so many of them. 108 109 are beautiful

 

[3migo]

So many incredible ones from this batch, but #108 has to be my favorite. Congrats to the buyers this round!

Good luck to all those throwing their hats in the ring for the four Toads Dan is offering ... I dig the Abstract Green big time ...

Yeah, had to put my name in for the abstract green and mushrooms. Fingers crossed!

Hi all, I'm new here but I am the lucky owner of one of Toad 059, and it's great! I haven't had a ton of time with it yet but the hype is real. Anyway I saw in the followup e-mail from Dan that there is a Cleaning and Maintenance Guide at this URL - Imgur- but I can't seem to access it, and get a 404. I'm guessing this shouldn't go in the dishwasher.

Anyway glad to see so many other Toads here and look forward to getting to know this work of art!

I just checked again and the links on the page I put below work!

there are wonderful photos of Nomad 1 and 2 on this page... and other useful info!

Happy to report that I am now paid up as a lottery winner for Toad #106

106 Abstract green with red logo - Lichen button

Very excited! I actually joined FC in order to message Dan to get on the Toad list. I suppose that I should probably leave after I finally get it, for narrative satisfaction. But I will be here a couple of months at least!

Also, for those paying for Toads in the US. I saved about $25 by paying in CAD and having my credit card do the exchange, rather than PayPal. Just a heads up!
