* AnIcePerson: In addition to being literally made of ice, the Berg creates icicles in his wake.
!Minor Racers
In ''LEGO Racers'', you compete against Governor Broadside, Rob-N-Hood, Ann Droid, and Pharaoh's Mummy in Circuits 1 and 4; Islander, Royal King, Commander Cold, and Achu in Circuits 2 and 5; Willa the Witch, Blackjack Hawkins, Sam Sinister, and Alpha Dragonis in Circuits 3 and 6; and Admiral, Black Knight, Nova Hunter, and Gail Storm in Circuit 7.
In ''LEGO Racers 2'', you compete against Baron Rosso (PC/console), Scooter (GBA), Frankie Solido, Johnny Thunder, Pippin Read, Mr. Cunningham, Mac, and Cassiopeia on Dino Island, Mars, and Arctic World. On Xalax, you instead race against the Ramas: Lightor, Warrior, Ghost, Freeze, Chill, Duster, and Snake.
* AdaptedOut: Baron Rosso does not appear in the UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance version of ''LEGO Racers 2'', while Scooter does not appear in the PC/console version.
* AliensSpeakingEnglish: Warrior is a Rama who speaks perfect English (or [[SpeakingSimlish Simlish]]).
* AllThereInTheScript: The only way you would know the names of Baron Rosso and Frankie Solido is by looking in the game files of ''LEGO Racers 2'', since they are never mentioned in the game itself.
* CompositeCharacter: "Governor Broadside" is actually combining the name of Governor Broadside (the Imperial Soldiers' leader) and the physical appearance of Admiral Woodhouse (the Imperial Guards' leader).
* DemotedToExtra: In ''LEGO Racers 2'', Achu and Slyboots only appear as [=NPCs=] during Explore mode, and they no longer partake in races.
* DubNameChange: When set to various languages, the first ''LEGO Racers'' gives certain characters different names instead of literal translations, with these being some of the most notable cases:
** Governor Broadside: Governador Flinn[[note]]Governor Flinn[[/note]] (Spanish), Kapitein Bakboord[[note]]Captain Portside[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Ann Droid: Indradroid (Spanish), Robotina (Dutch)
** Pharaoh's Mummy: Farao Hoteps Mumie[[note]]Pharaoh Hotep's Mummy[[/note]] (Danish)
** Islander: Uhu (Danish)
** Royal King: Koning Leeuwenhart[[note]]King Lionheart[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Commander Cold: Capitán Hielo[[note]]Captain Ice[[/note]] (Spanish), Capitano Ghiaccio[[note]]Captain Ice[[/note]] (Italian), Ijskapitein[[note]]Ice Captain[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Achu: Tempelkoning[[note]]Temple King[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Willa the Witch: Heksen Hylia[[note]]Hylia the Witch[[/note]] (Danish), Hella de Heks[[note]]Hella the Witch[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Sam Sinister: Slyboots (Danish), Sluwe Sam[[note]]Sly Sam[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Blackjack Hawkins: Barbanegra[[note]]Blackbeard[[/note]] (Spanish), Jack il Falco[[note]]Jack the Falcon[[/note]] (Italian)
** Alpha Dragonis: Dragon Alfa[[note]]Dragon Alpha[[/note]] (Italian), Chamon (Danish)
** Nova Hunter: Aramis la Cazadora[[note]]Aramis the [[ShesAManInJapan Huntress]][[/note]] (Spanish)
** Gail Storm: Tormentosa[[note]]Stormy[[/note]] (Spanish)
* TheGenericGuy: Ann Droid, Islander, Willa the Witch and Gail Storm all use carbon copies of Black Knight's racing car, for some reason. Everyone else gets their personal custom car in the first ''LEGO Racers''.
* GoKartingWithBowser: Willa the Witch, Sam Sinister, Alpha Dragonis, Black Knight, and Mr. Cunningham are all villains who partake in this friendly racing championship.
* HumanoidAliens: Unlike the later Martians, Alpha Dragonis has a standard minifigure build like all other Zotaxians, although his face is considerably more alien-looking than Gypsy Moth's face.
* NoNameGiven:
** [[Toys/LEGOCastle King Richard]] is only identified as the "Royal King" and [[Toys/LEGOPirates Cannonball Cordoba/Don Diego de LEGO/Sergeant Speedy]] is only called "The Admiral" in ''LEGO Racers''. The Islander and Black Knight are also left unnamed, though to be fair, they had no names in the original lines.
** Two characters in the second game (Frankie Solido and Baron Rosso) aren't named in the game, as they only show up as racers and never in explore mode as someone you can talk to. The only way you'd be able to know is by [[AllThereInTheScript hacking into the game files]].
* NonIndicativeName: Blackjack Hawkins' Spanish name translates to "Blackbeard", but he actually has a grey beard.
* OriginalGeneration: Although loosely inspired by the ''[[Toys/LEGOCity LEGO Town]]'' theme, Frankie Solido and Baron Rosso are original to ''LEGO Racers 2'' and are not based upon any toyline characters.
* {{Pirate}}: Blackjack Hawkins is a pirate from the ''Toys/LEGOPirates'' theme.
* PreviousPlayerCharacterCameo: Scooter is one of the default playable characters in ''LEGO Racers'', and returns as an opponent racer in the GBA version of ''LEGO Racers 2''.
* SecretCharacter: Using a ClassicCheatCode, you can play as Cassiopeia on any Mars race.
* SharpDressedMan: Sam Sinister/Slyboots,
* ShesAManInJapan: Nova Hunter's DubNameChange in Spanish is "Aramis la Cazadora", which translates to "Aramis the Huntress".
* SpellMyNameWithAnS:
** [[Toys/LEGOCastle Rob N. Hood]] has his name written as "Rob-N-Hood".
** [[Toys/LEGOPirates Black Jack Hawkins]] has his name written as "Blackjack Hawkins".
** [[Toys/LEGOSpace Alpha Draconis]] has his name spelled "Alpha Dragonis", although it is spelled correctly in the Dutch version.
** [[Toys/LEGOAdventurers Pippin Reed]] has her name spelled "Pippin Read" in the GBA version of ''LEGO Racers 2''. In the PC/console verison, [[FirstNameBasis her surname simply isn't mentioned]].
* SuddenNameChange: In ''LEGO Racers 2'', Sam Sinister and Gail Storm were renamed Slyboots and Pippin Read, respectively. Though, in the Danish version, this is {{averted|Trope}} by Slyboots, since that was what he was called in the first game.
* VocalDissonance: The first game mixed up the voices of ''dang near every'' opponent (the PC version, for example, gets exactly ''one'' of the twenty-three opponents). While Rob-N-Hood speaking with the voice of Captain Redbeard isn't much of a deal, hearing Willa the Witch TalkLikeAPirate in the grumpy voice of Blackjack Hawkins is all kinds of wrong.
!Minor [=NPCs=]

* FragileSpeedster: In ''LEGO Racers 2'', Sam Sanister's Island Racer is one of the fastest cars in the game and can easily leave you in the dust. However, unlike Riegel's Red Planet Protector or the Berg, it is vulnerable to items and can even be destroyed like any regular racer's car.

* SoreLoser: Riegel gets angry upon his defeat and kicks his Red Planet Protector in frustration before storming off.

* HulkSpeak: The Berg speaks in simple broken English and refers to himself with ThirdPersonPerson, fitting his Hulk-like appearance.
* AnIcePerson: In addition to being literally made of ice, the Berg creates icicles in his wake.

In ''LEGO Racers'', you compete against Governor Broadside, Rob-N-Hood, Ann Droid, and Pharaoh's Mummy in Circuits 1 and 4; Islander, Royal King, Commander Cold, and Achu in Circuits 2 and 5; Willa the Witch, Blackjack Hawkins, Sam Sinister, and Alpha Dragonis in Circuits 3 and 6; and Admiral, Black Knight, Nova Hunter, and Gail Storm in Circuit 7.
In ''LEGO Racers 2'', you compete against Baron Rosso (PC/console), Scooter (GBA), Frankie Solido, Johnny Thunder, Pippin Read, Mr. Cunningham, Mac, and Cassiopeia on Dino Island, Mars, and Arctic World. On Xalax, you instead race against the Ramas: Lightor, Warrior, Ghost, Freeze, Chill, Duster, and Snake.
* AdaptedOut: Baron Rosso does not appear in the UsefulNotes/GameBoyAdvance version of ''LEGO Racers 2'', while Scooter does not appear in the PC/console version.
* AliensSpeakingEnglish: Warrior is a Rama who speaks perfect English (or [[SpeakingSimlish Simlish]]).
* AllThereInTheScript: The only way you would know the names of Baron Rosso and Frankie Solido is by looking in the game files of ''LEGO Racers 2'', since they are never mentioned in the game itself.
* CompositeCharacter: "Governor Broadside" is actually combining the name of Governor Broadside (the Imperial Soldiers' leader) and the physical appearance of Admiral Woodhouse (the Imperial Guards' leader).
* DemotedToExtra: In ''LEGO Racers 2'', Achu and Slyboots only appear as [=NPCs=] during Explore mode, and they no longer partake in races.
* DubNameChange: When set to various languages, the first ''LEGO Racers'' gives certain characters different names instead of literal translations, with these being some of the most notable cases:
** Governor Broadside: Governador Flinn[[note]]Governor Flinn[[/note]] (Spanish), Kapitein Bakboord[[note]]Captain Portside[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Ann Droid: Indradroid (Spanish), Robotina (Dutch)
** Pharaoh's Mummy: Farao Hoteps Mumie[[note]]Pharaoh Hotep's Mummy[[/note]] (Danish)
** Islander: Uhu (Danish)
** Royal King: Koning Leeuwenhart[[note]]King Lionheart[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Commander Cold: Capitán Hielo[[note]]Captain Ice[[/note]] (Spanish), Capitano Ghiaccio[[note]]Captain Ice[[/note]] (Italian), Ijskapitein[[note]]Ice Captain[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Achu: Tempelkoning[[note]]Temple King[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Willa the Witch: Heksen Hylia[[note]]Hylia the Witch[[/note]] (Danish), Hella de Heks[[note]]Hella the Witch[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Sam Sinister: Slyboots (Danish), Sluwe Sam[[note]]Sly Sam[[/note]] (Dutch)
** Blackjack Hawkins: Barbanegra[[note]]Blackbeard[[/note]] (Spanish), Jack il Falco[[note]]Jack the Falcon[[/note]] (Italian)
** Alpha Dragonis: Dragon Alfa[[note]]Dragon Alpha[[/note]] (Italian), Chamon (Danish)
** Nova Hunter: Aramis la Cazadora[[note]]Aramis the [[ShesAManInJapan Huntress]][[/note]] (Spanish)
** Gail Storm: Tormentosa[[note]]Stormy[[/note]] (Spanish)
* TheGenericGuy: Ann Droid, Islander, Willa the Witch and Gail Storm all use carbon copies of Black Knight's racing car, for some reason. Everyone else gets their personal custom car in the first ''LEGO Racers''.
* GoKartingWithBowser: Willa the Witch, Sam Sinister, Alpha Dragonis, Black Knight, and Mr. Cunningham are all villains who partake in this friendly racing championship.
* HumanoidAliens: Unlike the later Martians, Alpha Dragonis has a standard minifigure build like all other Zotaxians, although his face is considerably more alien-looking than Gypsy Moth's face.
* NoNameGiven:
** [[Toys/LEGOCastle King Richard]] is only identified as the "Royal King" and [[Toys/LEGOPirates Cannonball Cordoba/Don Diego de LEGO/Sergeant Speedy]] is only called "The Admiral" in ''LEGO Racers''. The Islander and Black Knight are also left unnamed, though to be fair, they had no names in the original lines.
** Two characters in the second game (Frankie Solido and Baron Rosso) aren't named in the game, as they only show up as racers and never in explore mode as someone you can talk to. The only way you'd be able to know is by [[AllThereInTheScript hacking into the game files]].
* NonIndicativeName: Blackjack Hawkins' Spanish name translates to "Blackbeard", but he actually has a grey beard.
* OriginalGeneration: Although loosely inspired by the ''[[Toys/LEGOCity LEGO Town]]'' theme, Frankie Solido and Baron Rosso are original to ''LEGO Racers 2'' and are not based upon any toyline characters.
* {{Pirate}}: Blackjack Hawkins is a pirate from the ''Toys/LEGOPirates'' theme.
* PreviousPlayerCharacterCameo: Scooter is one of the default playable characters in ''LEGO Racers'', and returns as an opponent racer in the GBA version of ''LEGO Racers 2''.
* SecretCharacter: Using a ClassicCheatCode, you can play as Cassiopeia on any Mars race.
* SharpDressedMan: Sam Sinister/Slyboots,
* ShesAManInJapan: Nova Hunter's DubNameChange in Spanish is "Aramis la Cazadora", which translates to "Aramis the Huntress".
* SpellMyNameWithAnS:
** [[Toys/LEGOCastle Rob N. Hood]] has his name written as "Rob-N-Hood".
** [[Toys/LEGOPirates Black Jack Hawkins]] has his name written as "Blackjack Hawkins".
** [[Toys/LEGOSpace Alpha Draconis]] has his name spelled "Alpha Dragonis", although it is spelled correctly in the Dutch version.
** [[Toys/LEGOAdventurers Pippin Reed]] has her name spelled "Pippin Read" in the GBA version of ''LEGO Racers 2''. In the PC/console verison, [[FirstNameBasis her surname simply isn't mentioned]].
* SuddenNameChange: In ''LEGO Racers 2'', Sam Sinister and Gail Storm were renamed Slyboots and Pippin Read, respectively. Though, in the Danish version, this is {{averted|Trope}} by Slyboots, since that was what he was called in the first game.
* VocalDissonance: The first game mixed up the voices of ''dang near every'' opponent (the PC version, for example, gets exactly ''one'' of the twenty-three opponents). While Rob-N-Hood speaking with the voice of Captain Redbeard isn't much of a deal, hearing Willa the Witch TalkLikeAPirate in the grumpy voice of Blackjack Hawkins is all kinds of wrong.
!Minor [=NPCs=]
The Explore mode of ''LEGO Racers 2'' allows you to meet and talk to many other characters who do not compete in the Galactic Racing Championship.
* AliensSpeakingEnglish: Martians speak perfect English (or [[SpeakingSimlish Simlish]]), although they use a different dialogue track.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Alexia Sinister's name is written as "Alexia Sanister".
