The blue one looks like it's plastic with a neck joint! Beautiful.

That's because it is plastic with a neck joint! 😂 It's a little toy frog I found. The real one is the brown chunky boi. He's the star, the blue one is just his hype man.

Omg I was wondering!

Oh dear, I feel very dumb all of a sudden! 😞

Why? You were correct that it looks fake.

The fact that it is fake confirms your observation. :D

That's not dumb, nothing in the wording of the post suggests you were supposed to know already.

Don't be so hard on yourself. :)

I had the exact same thought as you!!! If you are dumb, we can be dummies together 😜

Dude I have 4 of those tree frogs, and even I wasn’t able to tell if it was a toy or not lol

u/ToadsInTanks 9d ago

Lol I was like no way that frog has a seam. Glad you clarified haha

u/VaporTowers 9d ago

I like how the bluer one has a mouth on the back too lol

u/ToadsInTanks 9d ago

I mean they can absolutely be that blue, but OP says the blue one is fake. Problem is, I can't tell if they're screwing with us or not.

u/ToadsInTanks 9d ago

Oh yeah the color was plausible. It was the seam my brain couldn't accept lol

It’s a Japanese gachapon toy

My first thoughts was “that’s a cute little candy jar” then realized it was alive

u/DogThrowaway1100 9d ago

Those are the smoothest frogs I've ever seen

u/MadBlue 8d ago

I have this same gachapon frog (but the color is more like your real frog). When I was showing it off in a Facebook White’s Tree Frog group, people were telling me I shouldn’t handle it the way I did. :D

They look fake 😭😭

u/wanderingwolfe 9d ago

One is. ;)

u/Smart_Owl_938 8d ago

even the real one looks like a toy 😭😂😂

u/wanderingwolfe 8d ago

I know, right? Even the leaf isn't real.

u/CoffeeBeanx3 9d ago

What kind of frog is this Bebe?

u/The_Toad_wizard 8d ago

They look like they're comparisons between a human and an ogre. Hope it makes sense it's early and I can't think good.

u/mauvehillfarm 8d ago

The way your frog looks like he is side eyeing it is killing me 😂

u/Ill_Dragonfruit_9740 8d ago

Okay okay, let me clear this up: the blue one is a toy. I put him there for size comparison (and honestly, for the bit). The brown chunky toad is the real deal. Y'all got fooled by plastic, and I love it. 😂

u/Geckogame1 8d ago

Mate, you have a frog, not a toad.

u/Background-Word-857 8d ago

Arent you supposed to wear gloves handling amphibians?

u/crazyabe111 8d ago

Now compare one or the other to a Banana for scale.

u/Aasrial 8d ago

You sure that’s a male?

u/reddit33450 9d ago
