Used ta like seein' SOMETHIN' left a poor ol' Toady. Now he ain't even got THAT!! Just wondered if'n any a the rest of ya's took time ta notice his tombstone was gone...

ORWEN: Shut up, old biddy!! I just wanted to say that we first noticed Mr. Toad's Tombstone was gone back on October 25th. We were there with a whole coven of witches. One of them was celebrating her birthday but that's another story for another time... ORDDU: We had actually been wondering, all along, if Mr. Toad's tombstone was all that durable to be placed outside all the time. You see, it was just a left over 'Big Fig' that didn't sell. So they painted it over to make it all one color so it would be more like a real tombstone. But we're not certain how well a resin figurine stands up to the Florida elements of rain, wind or certain witches with an appetite for all manner of toads... ORGOCH: Well, don't look at me!!! I ain't inta none a that resin type stuff! It's 'nuff ta break my teeth! ORWEN: I didn't know you had any teeth LEFT, old biddy!!

Actually, I wouldn't be at all surprised to find out that a certain nasty old biddy went sleep walking in the Magic Kingdom one night and then tried to gobble up poor old Mr. Toad, not realizing she was asleep and that the tombstone wasn't something for her to eat!! She probably created this whole topic because of a guilty conscience!!!

Originally Posted By Witches of Morva ORDDU: Oh, we cand drop in whenever, Epcot Explorer, duckling. Just because we live in Morva doesn't mean we can't fly our brooms all the way to both Florida and California whenever we like. ORWEN: But we still don't know the answer to sister Orgoch's question. That's why she went ahead and asked everybody here. She was hoping somebody around here might possibly know what happened to Mr. Toad's tombstone.

Originally Posted By demderedoseguys ^^ Yes, you are right. there is no tombstone. Either way, it should have been left there.
