'''Toad''' basically has the look of the rest of his species. He normally wears a blue vest, large brown shoes and a large diaper-like piece of clothing for pants. His appearance often depicts him to looking like a small human child with his miniature size and recognizable human like features. In the games starting from ''Super Mario Sunshine'', Toad's vest is given an added gold lining. He has a red-spotted mushroom cap, indicating slight cowardice and heavy obedience. A small controversy arose with ''[[Super Mario Bros. 2]]'', because Toad is given a blue mushroom cap instead of a red one. However, Toad's blue mushroom cap is actually due to the graphical incapability of the [[Nintendo Entertainment System|NES]] rather than a continuity thread. In remakes of ''
Like most of the characters in the series, Toad has changed very little appearance wise throughout the years since his debut in ''Super Mario Bros.''. The only recognizable differences in his current look consists of his physical appearance which included some defining factors in the recent years (such as redesigned eyes and a gold outline that was recently added to his traditional vest), and the corrected number of spots on his mushroom cap (the number of spots on his cap was inconsistent in the older Mario games). The addition of the red polka dot on the top of his head is first seen in the game ''Luigi's Mansion'' where even Luigi acknowledges the top spot and called it lovely if he is to take a picture of Toad with the [[
In relation to his body size, he also has small, thin arms and no legs (with just his feet). He also has a large head that is mostly dominated by the red spotted mushroom cap on his head. Overall, Toad's head appears to have a strong resemblance to various mushrooms (most notably the [[Super Mushroom]]). While having the look of a child in his current appearance (as like most of the members of his species do), it can be arguable that his earlier appearances (especially in his game appearances during the Nintendo 64 era) portray him as looking much more childish in design with his very large head and miniature body (more so than his current appearance). Surprisingly, a piece of artwork of Toad for the game ''[[Mario Party]]'' has Toad's legs showing. [[Toad_(species)|Toads]] have never been portrayed with their legs showing in games or game artwork before or after ''Mario Party''.
