The Toon Resistance Strikes Back
Posted by Lord Lowden Clear on June 16, 2024 at 2:00 PM
Greetings from Bossbot Headquarters (and the Toon Resistance, of course), Toons! Apologies for the news flash. My highest-ranking rapscallion Rangers and I have just finished our thorough evaluations on all upgraded Cog Headquarters... I must say, the Bossbots are middle-aging it up with these portcullises. Digressing, I have important tidbits to share about the future of our espionage guise; the trusty Cog Disguise! If you'll lend me an ear:
Silly Statistics:
There's lots of good news to go around today! 6,314 Toons have already upgraded a Cog Disguise to v2.0, with 12,377 total upgrades! Some 138 cavalier souls have already reached Level 50 in their v2.0 Disguise... but less than 20 have bested the gruelling challenge of maxing out all four! Wow, just... sleep. Hibernate, even.
When you're all rested up, you can celebrate the fact that we've wiped the floor with 320,594 Supervisors! Wisely, 46,668 Level 7 Gags and 26,104 S.O.S. Cards have been used to keep them at bay. And it seems like those fabled 'Rare Drop Accessories' are getting out there – 1,423, to be exact! Keep up the pace!
Ah... missing that third Foghorn, are we? Despite that, Sound is still the most commonly chosen Gag Track in Cog Battles, accounting for a third of all Gags chosen!
Disguise Revise:
Now, there's some more change on the horizon. For those of you who don't know – and even for those who do: the Resistance has traditionally relied on partnerships with Professor Flake at The Precipitation Foundation and Shep Ahoy at All For Nautical to prepare Toons and build their Lawbot and Bossbot Cog Disguises, respectively.
But things have changed.
Tighter security in Cog HQs means plenty of backdoors, loopholes, fake tunnels, gopher holes, and (but not limited to) Side Entrances have been sealed right shut, meaning that Cog Disguise Parts just got a lot more difficult to come by. Flake and Ahoy's reserves have sufficed so far and will continue to do so, but are ever-dwindling. Additionally, these gloomy, capitalistic, bureaucratic, dystopian (in that order) HQs have become increasingly dangerous for Toons in a minimal amount of time. It's diabolical! So, we made a decision.
Case Closed:
An astute and keen few may remember a certain classified document coming to light last month, thanks to a certain meddling duck. To that end, we decided – no, we needed – to act to prepare Toons for the powerful Cog HQ staff. We've recently been working with Toon Headquarters to re-evaluate the Cog Disguise process, to rally up shopkeepers, and to announce that a series of over fifty new ToonTasks are in the works to replace the Lawbot and Bossbot Disguise ToonTasks, plus some of what is offered to Toons working on their Cashbot Disguise!
While the details are still being hammered out (Charlie Chum is quite the negotiator), these ToonTasks will certainly serve as a better and well-rounded introduction to the function of the Cog Disguise, Promotions, Boss Cogs – maybe even some tips about Cog Facilities! Toons can still visit Flake and Ahoy for their Disguises as usual until everything is finalized.
In the meantime, keep the Cogs busting with – you've probably guessed it – laughter! There are countless new and exciting things coming to Toontown, and I hope to bring you another update sooner rather than later! Until next time,
Lord Lowden Clear
Leader of the Toon Resistance

Keep up the good work, Toons! Even though the cogs are giving us more challenges, and we need to work more to get out cog suits, we will continue to fight to protect Toontown!
Oh thank goodness, to be frank with you, I've been twiddling my thumbs NOT earning my Bossbot disguise because of how treacherous the Cog Golf Courses can be, especially with their security upgrades. I have mainly been working on busting up the Chief Justice in the meantime while I wait for one of those ever-predictable Winter Holiday invasions the lowest ranking Sellbots seem to enjoy so much. Bleagh. But at least it makes locating a 2.0 way easier!
yet i dont even have my cashbot disguise
OMG! It's the toon resistance and i can imagine like the more consistable it was
Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you I just want a new playground next.
Well, if the Toon Resistance must know, I myself have been doing the very best to get to that wonderful 2.0 Suit that everyone has been talking about. Currently, you are looking at a Mr. Hollywood Level 44, but by my estimate tomorrow, should I decide to work overtime for the Sellbots, you'll be seeing a grand Level 8 Cold Caller ready to go. Who know? Maybe I'll even get my own Cubicle if my efforts get noticed in these Factories. Hah. A bit of Sellbot Humor I overheard from a Two Face. I enjoy my time with these Sellbots. I really do. Unlike other Cogs, Sellbots are really the closest we Toons are ever going to get to a happy Cog. Perhaps someday we'll see more Level 20 Cold Callers out and about. Wouldn't that be something. Remember, show some compassion for the Cold Callers, because they are the base of all corporate ladders. Here's to the 2.0 suits, and here's to Cold Callers from Dreamland to Central! Hear hear!
Wow, someone tuck those toons who maxed all their v2.0 suits already into the Dreamland bed ASAP! I can't wait to see what is in store for the new Lawbot and Bossbot Disguise toontasks too.
I can't wait to see what's in store for us!!
Yippee!
I do hope for we can one day enter the Executive Office Tower in BBHQ at some point. but for now, we can only ponder as we promote (and even upgrade) our disguises.
not getting my bossbot suit any time soon
i wonder wat da cog have planned 4 us...
Wowza!
Good news, all. I kept to my word from yesterday and you are now looking at a proud Cold Caller 2.0! An Executive Cold Caller, if I do say so myself. I hope to see a Frozen Desk and office in one of The Factories in 5 business days. Hip hip hooray, this Cold Callers is here to stay, as they say.
Those pesky Cogs may have rolled out their Supervisors and reinvented the wheel, but we've been keeping them bustling all the same. R.I.P. to those Toons missing their third Fog Horn, though. I'm intrigued in seeing the new changes and what will be brought to the table with reinventing these Cog HQs. Hopefully less tiresome and more efficient work.
My oh, my. New toontasks. Can't wait. Sigh. I CAN'T wait. I do not want to wait. But alas, here I am. Waiting.
Interesting..
