The R*tist 4*merly Known as Dangerous Toys is the fourth album by Dangerous Toys. It was released in 1995, and is the band's last studio album to date. The album's title is a parody of the name used in reference to American recording artist Prince from 1991 to 2000, while the cover artwork is a spoof of his 1988 album Lovesexy.

Metal Hammer included the album cover on their list of "50 most hilariously ugly rock and metal album covers ever".
