Update 2010: Live since 2003, the site lets you create your own cartoon character and join forces with other Toons to defeat evil Cogs, corporate robots who want to destroy Toontown's fun. You can team up with friends and family in street battles & bossbattles, or challenge them to a kart race. The minigames let you earn jellybeans which can be spent to customize your Toon and Estate with clothes and furniture or adopt a pet Doodle. New features include fire hydrants, garbage cans, and boxes that can come alive to help the Toons as they battle the evil robot Cogs. Sidewalk props also join in by giving gags an extra boost. The site is free to play, but members get additional benefits. Memberships are $10 for one month, $50 for six months, and $80 for a year.
