* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodCharacter: While the "Mask of Dark Earth" - a sentient mask - is already an odd choice for Australia's villain (while magic exists in the setting, every other villain in the series is organic), but the fact that it just kinda exists without any characteristics or backstory makes it a rather dull one as well.

* MagnificentBastard:
** [[EvilFormerFriend Dr. M]] is a maniacal mandrill hellbent on pilfering the Cooper Vault for his own. Having felt unappreciated by the Coopers for years, Dr. M gains the deed to Kaine Island and the Cooper Vault, then turns the entire place into an impenetrable fortress with [[CrazyPrepared all sorts of clever traps]] and subversive technology while Sly tries in vain to penetrate the Vault. When Sly and his gang try to infiltrate the island, Dr. M outsmarts and defeats them all consistently, then fakes a loss just so he can plant a tracker on Sly and bypass the Vault's security. Despite their differences and his hatred for the Coopers, Dr. M shows ample respect to Bentley and Murray for standing toe-to-toe with him, [[IveComeTooFar and ends up choosing to]] [[DeathByMaterialism buried with the collapsing Vault]] rather than survive, his lifelong dream of gaining access to it finally realized.
** The Guru is a mystical master of magic who resides in the Outback. Teaming up with the Cooper Gang to disrupt an oil drilling outfit, the Guru uses his powers of illusion and mind control to trick the miners into destroying their own equipment and helps the Gang destroy the evil Mask of Dark Earth. Allying with the Gang to help them infiltrate the Cooper Vault, the Guru helps turn various pilots against each other and uses a giant wolf to slaughter the Black Baron's guards. The Guru later takes control of the powerful giant squid Crusher to take down diabolical pirates, and plays his role in the heist against Dr. M with great flourish.
