RED ALERT: Toontown is Being Invaded… AGAIN!
I always knew this day would come… Attention all Toons! This is not a drill. Toontown is being invaded AGAIN! Put away your golf clubs, hide your Doodles in your homes – this is an invasion unlike any other. I need all Toons to be on high alert! Those “Butterflies” I warned of many years ago may have seemed harmless, but I was right all along! They have finally brought reinforcements. No Toon is safe. I’ve heard rumors that these so-called “Butterflies” are now capable of landing on your heads and shirts, as if they’re some form of accessory! Unlike those dastardly Cogs, this invasive species seems to be resistant to our gags, but I think I know the perfect thing to distract them with – flowers! Make sure to keep your gardens growing. I know I’ll be growing some Hazy Daisies and Silly Lilies this week to keep them busy while we think of ways to defeat them! Toons, we have to act fast. If we aren’t careful, these new foes may soon pop up in more places. Who knows – one day they may even find a way of getting into the Cattlelog! One thing is for certain – these “Butterflies” are here to stay. Follow Us On Bluesky Don’t listen to Sir Max! These butterflies are completely harmless.

Bonnie Snoops on Skelecog Mega-Invasion Scoop
Yep, that's me. You're probably wondering how I got here. I really didn't wander too far from the Hideout this time though. Swear on my Super-Seltzer!Juuuust like last time, it kicked off when I was told to get some gear for the numero uno's birthday. That's Ripley, to be specif'. Maaan, is it just me or does it feel like her birthday comes around at the exact same time every year?! Anyway, Ai Spai didn't put me on cake duty this time and gave me somethin' a little less high-stakes instead: the balloons! A pretty solid task for me, 'cause they're just big bubbles, ya dig?As you folks can see, this blue bear got to the Sellbot Factory – a spot not far from home at all, right? I was taking a shortcut. Bad idea. A one-way ticket back to the slammer, really. Yeesh! I can't even joke about that kinda thing, and ya know I like a good joke. Anyway, what was I trying to say? Oh yeah. The Skelecogs are coming!Yet again, I overheard some pretty juicy deets during my detour. Lucky for all of you, I had my stand-up journal handy and managed to jot down the sweeeet intel. This is what I'd noted before I was caught and chased out by that angry Skelecog. Seriously, that dude needs to try meditation or yoga or somethin'!A Toon and a Name Dropper walk into a Gag Shop… Oops, that's my stand-up. I've just been scribblin' bits down here and there. I really wanna start taking it seriously…Sorry, um yeah. Here's the dirt. The Skelecog Mega-Invasion will take place between July 13th 2:00 PM (PDT) and July 15th 11:59 PM (PDT). The factories will be producing a much higher yield of Skelecogs than usual. Yada yada. Resistance Rangers will be out and about to foil their plans. Ha! I know that's right!You better have your gags at the ready – that factory was cookin' Skelecogs faster than Bridget bakes pies! Anywho, I think that's all me and my trusty seltzer have to say. Keep Toontown safe for us, yeah? Bubbles out!

ToonFest Orlando: Our Next Trick, A Very Special Guest!
With less than a month until ToonFest Orlando, we're ready to reveal our Toontastic featured guest: Disney's Toontown Online programmer, Ron Weaver, is attending ToonFest in person!

Operation P.L.U.S.H. Patrol IS A GO!
Attention all Toons! Resistance Ranger Rocky here from the Toon Resistance, and I’ve got an important mission for you all. Lord Lowden Clear is still missing, and I need all of Toontown to be on high alert! That’s right – Operation P.L.U.S.H. Patrol is a GO. Starting today, I’ll be outside Toon Hall with Doctor Surlee, looking for recruits to help us in our mission to track down the fearless leader of the Toon Resistance. Speak with me, and I’ll send you on a quest to track down the chief. Doctor Surlee, on the other hand, is hard at work developing a silly solution to Lowden’s cuddly conundrum, and he needs some help tracking down ingredients. In return for helping us, you’ll be rewarded handsomely. Those who complete Doctor Surlee’s ToonTask will be rewarded with Doctor Surlee’s Cutout, which was last available during the Silly Particle search! Those who complete my ToonTask will be rewarded with TWO Lord Lowden Clear SOS Cards, which were last available during Operation: Crash Cashbot! We don’t have all the time in the world for this mission, though. You’ve got from now until August 7th at 11:59PM Toontown Time (PST) to help us out. After that, these ToonTasks won’t be available!

Celebrate Summer Sunshine With a Silly Spectacle!
BANG! WHOOSH! BOOM! FIZZ! SMOKEY JOE, GET ME OFF OF THIS! YOU CAN’T SERIOUSLY BE STRAPPING ME TO A FIREWORK! Heya Toons, Smokey Joe here – owner and proprietor of Used Firecrackers down on Loopy Lane! Haven’t you heard? We’re set for a scorching hot summer with clear skies in every Playground – even Donald’s Dock! We couldn’t have asked for better weather for the start of the summer fireworks season! Shorty Fuse seems to have, erm, “disappeared” after last year’s festivities – looks like he knows he can’t compete with Ol’ Smokey anymore! That’s right, for the third year in a row, the Toon Council has come to me in their time of need. I’m proud that I supply only the finest used firecrackers in all of Toontown! This year, for the first time ever, I’m even selling used candles! HEY! HEY YOU! GET ME OFF OF THIS FIREWORK! HE CAN’T KEEP GETTING AWAY WITH THIS! The Toon Council’s summer celebrations start NOW! From now until July 6th at 11:59 PM Toontown Time, enjoy fireworks shows in every Playground at the top of every hour! Oh, by the way, if you see my old rival (wherever he lands, that is…), tell him Toontown’s favorite pyrotechnic says hidey-ho!

Our Partners are suuuuper important to the community, both in and out of the game! The Partner Program essentially helps create a connection between the Toontown Team and the people that make this game so special. In case you didn't already know, our Partners are pretty awesome Toons and do a whole bunch of things to keep the party going in Toontown! They consist of various Toontown communities and also individual content creators. Panda Phil, Justice is Blind and ATTA are just some of the names you've probably come across while playing, and that's just the tip of the ice-Brrrgh! Wondering what our Partners do? Some of our Partners stream on Twitch, create videos for YouTube, and design custom content packs. Others may manage community forums, organize regular Boss Cog runs, or host in-game events!

Team Spotlight: Loud and Proud LGBTQ+ Toons!
As Pride Month continues in its full rainbow glory, so do our celebrations! And, what better way to celebrate than to spotlight our very own LGBTQ+ Toontown Team members! They identify with a variety of labels, and tell personal stories of how Toontown has helped them discover their authentic selves and find acceptance. Have we raised your queeriosity–er, curiousity yet? Keep reading to meet these fabulous Toons! Gay and Lesbian First up is Derrick – a Web Developer on the team! He is gay, which refers to men who are attracted to men. He is also known as his Toon, Breeze! Next is Swaginator (a.k.a. Loud Wacky Jinxtoon) – a Discord Moderator who is lesbian! She’s a woman who is attracted to other women. Swaginator reflects positively on Toontown’s queer community: “I'm happy to be part of a community that is so welcoming and accepting of LGBTQ+ folks that Toontown Rewritten has created, both within the community and the team. Thanks for everyone's hard work!” Also, there’s Hannah! One of our Concept Artists who is a butch lesbian. This refers to a lesbian whose gender expression and traits present as masculine. Pan and Bi To follow are our pan-tastic and bi-rilliant team members… Introducing… Cookie! A Community Engagement Coordinator and a Social Media Specialist who is pan! This means she is attracted to people regardless of their gender identity. We also have Glenn, a Support Representative on the team! They are bi! Bi refers to people who are attracted to more than one gender. Next to meet is… Julia! One of our Concept Artists. She is also bi! Here’s a fun story about queer culture in Toontown from Julia: “One of the first times I thought 'man, maybe im not straight' was when i was roleplaying Warrior Cats in Acorn Acres on Toontown Online and had a lesbian romance with the medicine cat, and if that isn't queer culture in Toontown, I dont know what is." Trans and Nonbinary And finally, let’s introduce some amazing, trans-formative Toons!... Brie is a Social Media Specialist and is trans! This means her gender identity is different from the one assigned at birth. She is pan too! Brie shares how Toontown has been key to shaping who she is today: “I think that the real power of Toontown is and has always been bringing people together. It's this power that has brought me some of my greatest friendships. These people and their support are the reason I'm here today. I've spent a lot of time thinking about what exactly I am, and my conclusion is honestly that it doesn't matter.” Next up is… Joey B! A Render Artist for the team who is also trans. He is bi too! Joey B. describes how Toontown has allowed him to express his authentic self: “As I grew up, my Toon did as well. Being able to change his style to better fit how I viewed myself made me so more comfortable with my self-expression. The Toontown community helped me discover who I am today, and I couldn't be more thankful!” To finish off… there’s Sav! They are a Social Media Specialist who is non-binary! This means that their gender does not fall into the binary of male and female. They are also lesbian! Whew, what a happy and gay time we've had meeting all these wonderful Toons! So long, Toontown, enjoy the rest of Pride month and keep flying those rainbow flags!
