The Tongue-Token Frog

🐸 The Tongue-Token Frog (Articulated & No-AMS Friendly)

Meet the Chubby Frog: your new little buddy, always ready to unlock your shopping cart!

This model is more than just a cute buddy. Its pink tongue is actually a built-in articulated trolley token. Simply use the tip of the tongue to unlock your cart. No more digging for coins at the bottom of your bag!

• 2-in-1 Design: A round, funny frog that serves as a trolley token.
• No-AMS Optimized: The project is split into 4 plates to avoid filament waste and long purge times.
• Bonus "Lazy" Plate: I’ve included an extra plate for those (like me! 😄) who want to print the eyes in black & white using an AMS in one go.
• Easy to spot! With this chubby green friend on your handle, you'll never lose your cart in the supermarket aisles again!
• Easy Assembly: Just insert the tongue and clip the eyes on, ready to go!

Regarding the eyes: I recommend gluing the whole assembly to your Chubby Frog to prevent them from falling out. I've noticed that tolerances can vary slightly depending on the filament you use, which may affect how securely the eyes stay in place.

🌍 Token Sizes & International Versions

The Main Profile and the "Thug Life" version only include the 1€ coin-sized token.

If you are looking for a specific size for your country, please head over to the different token sizes print profile. In that profile, you will find various models with two tongue options for each:

• Classic: More flexible, but a bit more fragile (plate 1 to 3).
• V2 (Reinforced):  Much stronger and more durable, but slightly less flexible (plate 4 to 8).

☀️ Update: Get Ready for Summer! (Thug Life Edition) 🕶️

Your favorite chubby frog just got a major style upgrade! Shop with ultimate confidence and style with the new "Thug Life" Sunglasses accessory.

👓 What's in the New Print Profile: 

(check for the Thug Life Edition profile)

Plate #6 Chubby Thug : The Cool Look

• Sunglasses & Special Eyes: Printed "by object" to minimize filament purges.
• Assembly Guide: 

1. Look for the L (Left) and R (Right) markers on the back of the white eyes (based on the frog's face). 

2. Slide the white eyes into the frog's head. The eyes are a very tight fit and can be quite hard to insert. This is completely normal and intentional to ensure everything stays secure. Try placing the thickest part of the eye toward the frog's nose; this should make the insertion process much easier!

3. Use the sunglasses' connectors to orient the eyes. If it feels too tight, don't force it ! Use a small tool to rotate the eyes directly so you don't snap the connectors 

4. Once aligned, add a tiny drop of glue to the two connectors on the back of the glasses to secure them.

• ⚠️ Compatibility Note: These sunglasses are specifically designed for the eyes on Plate #6. They will not fit the classic eye model!

🚨 IMPORTANT: Adhesion Warning

For printing the tongue and the frog's body, perfect plate adhesion is vital. Using a glue stick or spray is almost mandatory for this model.

I purposely designed a very small footprint to avoid those "brim" marks on the model. But a small contact area means higher risk! If you skip the glue, don't be surprised if your frog's tongue decides to go ice skating across your build plate, resulting in a total print failure. ⛸️💨

Consider yourself warned: we want a cool frog, not a frog doing a victory slide into a pile of spaghetti! 😄

Lastly , feel free to ask if you need a different coin or token size for your country that isn't available in the second print profile. I'd be happy to add it for you!

Give your Chubby Frog a home! 💧

A friend was looking for a place to store their Chubby Frog after shopping, so I designed a little something! You can now find a new print profile featuring a "Puddle Wall Mount" to hang your frog in style.

Designed primarily for the 1€ coin. It should work with Canadian and American coins, but please note it is probably not compatible with the new 2€ token.

2 variants available (Available in both AMS and non-AMS versions): 

• Double-sided Tape Version: Designed with a flat back for easy mounting on walls or furniture using adhesive tape. 
• Screw-on Version: Featuring a hole for 1 screw with a diameter under 4.8mm. Also includes a small matching cap to hide the screw, just glue it on top to hide your screw (Note: This version is currently untested, so let me know how it works for you!)

A Huge Thank You! 🐸💚

I want to say a massive thank you for all the likes and boosts! I am absolutely thrilled to see an army of chubby frogs rising up, ready to invade our supermarkets!

Keep sharing your awesome prints, seeing them in the wild is the best part !

Happy printing! ✨
