>>26648008I genuinely can't understand why anyone would hate the design. The only reasonable explanation for people hating it is if they hate frogs overall.
It's a very creative execution of a concept that has folklore behind it; is the closest to frog-like in terms of anatomy, and can convincingly pull of both doof and aloof looks, so it has big appeal regardless; It isn't overly simple or overly complicated, and very few designs can dance within that much pursued line of creativity.
It is also creative in a natural way and doesn't try to play it completely safe. It's a great design.
