- Cool Uncle: Even though Felix isn't their uncle, he does act like one. He comes to babysit the kids with grocery bags full of caramel corn, and lets them stay up late to watch movies on a school night. It's no surprise the kids adore him and are distressed when the Thumb-Thumbs capture him.

Arnold, Francis, Rez
Played By: Bobby Edner (Francis), Ryan Pinkston (Arnold), and Robert Vito (Rez) Foreign VAs
Appearances: Spy Kids 3-D: Game Over
Three beta-testers for the Toymaker's new game, they initially give Juni a hard time due to his nature as a newbie. They become somewhat more willing to deal with him after they believe he is "The Guy", a player who will lead them all to the grand prize at the end.
- Blatant Lies: Rez assuring Juni, before the race starts, that they'll "try" to help him out as much as they can while giving him a smug smile.
- I'm Not a Hero, I'm...: Turns out their signature characterizations were only their in-game personas.Juni: Hey, wait a second. What happened to Francis the Brain, Arnold the Strong, and Mister Cool?
Francis: Well, in the real world, I'm not that smart.
Arnold: I'm not strong.
Rez: I'm not cool.
Juni: Whoa, reality check! - It's All About Me: These guys only care about reaching Level 5 (to win the so-called prize) and make sure they have no competition with other players, namely Juni, ignoring the fact that the Toymaker intended to have them stay in the game for all eternity. It isn't until Demetra's reveal as the Deceiver and the Toymaker making this announcement that they have a change of heart. Fortunately, they are actually nice in the real world.
- Jerkass: To varying degrees. They basically treat Juni with immense contempt, barely believing at first that he could be "The Guy", and trying to initially get rid of him because they believe he's an obstacle to the prize. They only improve somewhat after he proves his mettle.
- Jerkass Has a Point: They did have a good reason to get rid of Juni's illegitimate bonus packs because using them would lead to an immediate Game Over.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: They do leave the game on good terms with Carmen and Juni and are noticeably nicer in the real world.
- Kick the Dog: As the game doesn't have any rules (except "win at any cost" of course), the trio take pleasure in making Juni's journey very hard, from Francis throwing him into a manhole just because Juni mistook him for a toad on a pogo stick, to Rez tricking him into destroying his own race car and using his foot to get Juni off of his car, and Arnold threatening to smash him into pieces if he fails to prove he is the Guy, which he isn't.
- Mean Character, Nice Actor: Their jerkassery is a prominent part of their in-game personas, even while believing Juni is "the Guy" who will lead them to victory. In the real world, they are shown to be rather decent and are visibly impressed upon finding out Juni is a special agent for the OSS.
- Mirror Character: Rez's hostility towards Juni, crush on Carmen, and overall "bad boy" vibe shows many similarities to Gary Giggles from the second film. Downplayed in that it’s only a part of Rez's in-game persona.
- Pet the Dog: Despite their petty behavior towards Juni, they had some of this moments with Juni. Arnold telling Juni to take the boxing glove off of Rez's car, then vowing (while believing that he's the Guy) to protect him. Also, Francis comforts a saddened Juni after Demetra gets a Game Over.
- Smug Snake: Rez is very overconfident and a much of a cheat this in the game.
