[[File:Toad 12.jpg|200px|thumb|Toad near the Hazy Maze Cave]]
This toad will spawn near the [[Haze Maze Cave]] entrance after you have collected 12 stars. All main category routes include this star, except for [[RTA Guide/0/1 Star|0/1 Star]].

'''Tips for grabbing Toad stars'''
* On the Japanese version of the game only, you can use Toad's vest becoming visible as a visual cue for when you are able to talk to him.
* On the U.S. version of the game, you are able to talk to Toad 1 frame sooner than on the Japanese version.

== For 16 Star LBLJ Route ==
Grab the Toad star as your 13th or 14th star. This allows you to go directly to the exit door after finishing the stage. Go into Mariocam C-Down for lag reduction.

== For 70 Star and 16 Star No LBLJ ==
Grab the Toad star before you enter the stage. This is faster than grabbing it during or after entering. Go into Mariocam C-Down for lag reduction.

== For 120 Star ==
Grab the Toad star after completing the stage. This allows you to grab it on your way to the exit door. Go into Mariocam C-Down and spam C-Left for lag reduction before talking to Toad, and while walking to the door.
