Foghorn is the level six Sound gag. It succeeds the Elephant Trunk but precedes the Opera Singer.

General

The Foghorn can be obtained once the toon earns a total of 7,500 Sound skill points. A toon can move up to the next level gag, the Opera Singer, after earning a total of 10,000 Sound skill points.

When first obtained, the Foghorn can deal a maximum damage of "25". The maximum damage gradually increases if the Sound skill bar increases, maximizing to a damage of "50" after obtaining the next gag. If grown on a tree and is organic, the maximum damage increases by two to five.

As with all Sound gags, the Foghorn targets all cogs and does not get a lure bonus for hitting the cog.

A toon can carry a maximum of three Foghorns.

Formula

In equation form: $\frac{X - Y}{(M - O)}$

• X represents the skill points for the next gag
• Y represents the starting point of this gag
• M represents the maximum damage
• O represents the original starting point

To determine the next increase in damage for a Foghorn, take the number of skill points required to obtain the next gag and divide it by one more than the number of increase (the maximum damage + 1 - the original damage). You should therefore get an estimate.

The Foghorn equation:

$\frac{10000-7500}{51-25}=\frac{2500}{26}=96.2$

For every 96 skill points, the Foghorn's damage increases.

Animation

1. The toon steps back and acts like he/she is taking a large breath.
2. The toon "pushes" the Foghorn foward, as the bronze horn appears in the megaphone.
3. The Foghorn creates a deep "OOOOOOoooooo......" noise, and all the cogs will be stunned, and will either return back to normal or be destroyed.

Gag

Trivia

• In real life, a foghorn is a giant horn that is used on many big boats and ships, and it is used and blown to call other ships who are lost in the fog.
• The sound effect used for the Foghorn is not a real noise from a real-life foghorn, but rather a sound from some famous Japanese guessing shows. Sometimes, the sound effect of the Foghorn is also used to indicate something stinky or ugly in cartoons.
• A Flunky and two unknown cogs are seen in the Foghorn trading card.
• Only VP SOS Sound Toons use this gag; Moe Zart's Foghorn does 80 damage while the maximum damage for Foghorn is 50.
• The Foghorn on the third edition trading card is gold while it is bronze in game.
• The Foghorn sound effect is used when the boat in Donald's Dock stops moving and when the Toontanic misses.
• Without bonus damage, four maxed Foghorns are able to deal 200 damage, which is enough to defeat four level 12 cogs.
• The Foghorn appears to be spinning as it is used.
• In real life, foghorns are much louder than the Opera Singer, which is the Level 7 Sound gag.
• Similar objects are used as public address system inside Toon HQs. However, they are used for decoration only and do not make any sound.
