Crazy Frog

Crazy Frog is a Swedish CGI-animated character and musician created by Erik Wernquist in 2003. Originally named The Annoying Thing, he was created to accompany Daniel Malmedahl's sound effect of him imitating a two-stroke engine in a short animation for TurboForce3D. After the original animation had become a viral sensation, the character was picked up and marketed by Jamba!, where he was renamed to Crazy Frog, and started his music career.

Appearances

Crazy Frog is a spotted light blue anthropomorphic frog-like creature. Like a frog, his fingers and toes are webbed.The iris of his left eye is significantly larger than that of the right. An upper right front tooth is missing. He also has a visible penis and scrotum, which was erased in censored versions of each media. Without his helmet, the top of his head dips in slightly.

On the pre-rendered image of Crazy Frog in LightWave 3D, it appears that Crazy Frog used to not have this dip in his head (or at least this is how model looks without render).

When Erik just created him, Crazy Frog had blue eyes and there was no missing tooth.

The Annoying Thing/Axel F

The classic costume from the original animation and Axel F (as well as in 'The Flash'/'The Annoying Thing pilot episode' and French TV special video by Kaktus Film). He wears a white motorcycle helmet with the chinstrap unfastened, a leather jacket, and goggles. In the original animation, the back of the leather jacket has a TurboForce3D logo on it.

Popcorn (The Holiday Thing)

In the Popcorn video, Crazy Frog wears orange floral shirt, and throughout the video he changes his head wear from brown panama hat to yellow snorkeling mask. This is the first time we see the top of his head in a video. In the video games, he appears in this look (with brown panama) as a different character, The Holiday Thing. For the Crazy Hits album cover, Crazy Frog wears same shirt as in Popcorn, but with DJ headphones.

DJ Look

In couple of short videos like 'DJ' and video clips like 'Daddy DJ', 'Safety Dance' and 'Everyone' Crazy Frog wears DJ headphones, sometimes with his biker vest.

Biker outfit

In 'Knight Rider,' Crazy Frog wears sunglasses and black biker vest. In 'Daddy DJ' and 'Safety Dance' he wears his vest, black trousers with a belt, police hat and a fake black mustache.

Goalkeeper outfit

In 'We Are The Champions' Crazy Frog wears a white t-shirt with black stripes with "1" written on the front and "Annoying" written on the back, a pair of black and white goalkeeper gloves and soccer shoes.
