I just took a close listen to Mr. Pollywanna's voice, and I really don't think that was the late June Foray, even though she was credited as Parrot in the game. I did notice Foray's voice in the Mrs. Pollywanna character, but I've got a gut feeling that the mister was actually voiced by Patrick Hagan.


*** Mama Brickolini, Polly Gone, Mr. Pollyanna, and Mrs. Pollyanna are voiced by Creator/JuneForay.
*** The Infomaniac, Captain Click, and Marty Snaps are voiced by Patrick Hagan. In an instance of SignificantDoubleCasting, both Infomaniac and Click fill the {{Mentor|s}} role for players.

** The memetic "you have to put the CD in the computer" line is an edit of a line telling the player to put the CD ''back'' in the computer, which is not used in the final game (the game just crashes if the CD is ejected). There's a second line to the same effect but more verbose, and phrased in a way that suggests the game could have functioned partially without the CD for a while.

* ActingForTwo: Several actors voice multiple characters in each game. This leads to several {{Actor Allusion}}s between characters, such as Dr. Clickitt and Ed Mail being brothers (both voiced by Frank Hausman in the first game and Jack Roberts in the second game), and the Infomaniac and Captain Click each filling the {{Mentor|s}} role for players (both voiced by Patrick Hagan). A shark voiced by David L. Lander comments that the Brickster reminds him of himself.
** Mr. and Mrs. Pollyanna are both voiced by Creator/JuneForay.
** Pepper is voiced by Diane Perry in the sequels, where he speaks to many other characters (Mama, Laura, Maggie, Valerie, Rhoda, Jenny, and Belinda) also voiced by Diane Perry.
** Enter and Return are both voiced by Alan Marriot in ''Island Xtreme Stunts''.
* AscendedFanon: The name Jack O. Trades (mentioned [[AllThereInTheManual in the manual]]) was intended for one of the car mechanics in the first game. However, this is never explicitly stated in-game, so a fan website instead attributed the name to the Flying Legando with an "O" on his shirt. Both sequels refer to the Flying Legando as Jack O'Trades, seemingly going with the fan website instead of the original script.
* DummiedOut:
** ''LEGO Island 2: The Brickster's Revenge'': A small tomb-like area near a pyramid was removed from the game, but all the developers did was block off the entrance, leaving the tomb's inaccessible interior still present in the game. It's still possible to get inside with a game modification.
** A large number of unused dialogue tracks are still present in ''LEGO Island 2''[='s=] files, most notably including cut scenes of Cedric the Bull and Mr. Hates returning in the OGEL levels and the Brickster pulling a LukeIAmYourFather joke on Pepper.
** In the UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance version of ''LEGO Island 2'', there is a girl who is complaining that she lost her towel but she thinks she sees it "in the bushes". Pepper responds to her by saying that he'll go look for it. There's a small hedge maze of bushes nearby, but there's no towel anywhere.
* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The soundtrack was for many years only available through the game itself, where it's stored as low-quality 11025 Hz mono tracks due to space limitations. The master tapes were lost in a house boat accident, but one of the soundtrack's composers, Lorin Nelson, has kept cassette backups of many of the tracks and these have since been made available [[https://projectisland.org/music/ here]].

*** In the GBC version, [[Toys/LEGOAdventurers Slyboots and Hotep]] have unlockable trading cards, but these characters do not actually appear in-game.

** A Spin-Off for the series was planned called Beneath the Phanta Sea but never came to be for political reasons.
** ''LEGO Island 2'' was intended to be twice as big as what it really is. Due to its rushed production, however, much of it was scrapped and it became an ObviousBeta. It was also planned to have Captain Click (from the lego pirate line) as the series new ''BigBad'', the pirate door in the first game was {{Foreshadowing}} this.

Not that that didn't happen end up happening anyway with the ending we got 🤷‍♂️

Added DiffLines:

** The first game's infamous BadEnding [[https://youtu.be/bt2KLkE5pck?t=215 was originally much longer and even darker]], but was made shorter and less harsh in the final product due to concerns that it would upset young players.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The soundtrack was for many years only available through the game itself, where it's stored as low-quality 11025 Hz mono tracks due to space limitations. The master tapes were lost in a house boat accident, but one of the soundtrack's composers, Lorin Nelson, has kept cassette backups of many of the tracks and these have since been made available [[https://projectisland.org/music/ here]].

The Lego Group didn't fire the team, it was the game's publisher Mindscape.


* StillbornFranchise: Subverted. The first ''LEGO Island'' game was intended to be the first part in a six game series, with other games exploring the other islands and areas in the Phanta Sea. However, these were all scrapped before development got far due to LEGO's [[ExecutiveMeddling firing of the development team a day before the first game's release]]. While of course a second game ''was'' eventually made, it wasn't ''quite'' the franchise that was originally intended to spawn out of it.
