The open arch-shaped mouth shows eight white teeth. Above the mouth, there is a thin, truncated, black triangular-like shape with white dots. On top, there is a white spotted green frog that has its front right leg in between the face's eyes but more to the right side, its back right leg on top of the outer circle of the face's eye as it also partially covers the pupil, its back left leg in the middle of the face's wide truncated, black triangular-like shape, and its front left leg on the face's other eye. Along the top and the bottom of the face, there is a pair of thin, red split u's. The other face is similar but instead it has a thin, truncated, white triangular-like shape with black dots and black teeth with no frog on top.
