The Sling-a-Thing Toad is a purple-spotted Toad in Decalburg who runs the Sling-a-Thing (Fling-a-Thing in the British English version) stand in Paper Mario: Sticker Star. His stand will open after Mario has collected the Fan Thing in Bouquet Gardens. His job is to convert Things into stickers for free. If Mario is out of Things and talks with the Sling-a-Thing Toad, he will tell Mario to check the wall near him, where the Shady Toad sells Things. The shopkeeper Toad of Decalburg gets jealous of him when he hears that a new shop has just opened. In the North American localization, he frequently uses the word "perky", with his motto being "Stay perky".

When tattled, Kersti will comment: "This operation looks pretty shady/doggy, but I have to admit, the thing stickers are pretty amazing." A Red Toad at the Outlook Point runs the same business.

Trivia[edit]

  • Both "selling things" and "creating thing stickers" are heavily implied to be illegal, referencing real-life black markets.
