Great score on a used guitar at GC yesterday...

Danelectro got busted ripping off some boutique circuits with the more recent Cool Cat series Fuzz and Transparent Overdrive pedals, they quickly claimed it was a coincidence (lel) while replacing both pedals with Phase II versions... then there's the earlier Mini series "french toast" which is a clone of the old Foxx Tone Machine octave fuzz desgined by renowned homophobe Steve Ridinger back in '71.
Their housings are generally pretty distinctive but I wouldn't consider any of their effects to be recognizable by sound alone, it was usually pretty general stuff dressed up as something fancy, and at times where their pedals seemed to have a distinct edge it's because they copied something tried-and-true, but for cheapz.
Also I would say those mini pedals are pretty tough. Have had the Milkshake chorus for 15 years (including 4 years gigging pedalboard duty) and French Toast about 8 (including a few years getting used on the board and having a coffee spilled on it) and they've always worked, though due to their plastic cases they are indeed susceptible to interference, especially with daisy chain power supplies.
By comparison a Behringer DD-3 clone I have doesn't work for shit after having the same type of coffee spilled on it (WHAT THE FUCK ARE BEHRINGER PLAYING AT *waves arms around flinging coffee everywhere*).
