Tiny : The central character of the show. He is turquoise, has a pink antenna on top of his head, and a pink button on his belly which opens the lid of his head, uncovering a couple of tools which he uses for fixing machines and robots. He is also responsible for pulling the Day-Night Lever at the right times. Tiny lives on the Nut and Bolt Tree, right next to the Day-Night Lever. He is also the smallest of the Little Robots. He always has a positive view on things, and always tries to help his friends to live in peace and harmony together. Tiny is very mature for his age. Although what everyone doesn't know in the series that Tiny was mayor of the robot world despite being one of the younger Little Robots. And as the series continued he has taken part of other jobs like fixing robots. Putting his discy lift under inspection and even saving robots from the scrap.
Messy : The robot dog of the Little Robots' world, he loves things dirty and messy. Scary teaches him tricks and makes shows with him, where he's known as "Messy the Wonderhound". It may be possible that some of Messy's vocal effects may have been recycled from the character Bumpy Dog : Noddy's Toyland Adventures, which Hibbert also voiced characters in.
Sporty : The strongest and fittest of the Little Robots. he's constantly running, playing games and sports, and never gets tired of making himself stronger and fitter. Sporty has his own, private gym with a trampoline and a conveyor belt.
Stretchy : A very organized and efficient dark blue Little Robot. He's in charge of sorting the junk that comes from the chute on the junkyard. He's blue, tall and thin and has a long, flexible neck. Though his main worry is to keep the junkyard organized so his friends can use, his workaholism and obsession for organisation sometimes causes problems ! He lives in the junkyard, inside an abandoned radiator.
Rusty : A feminine and sensitive Little Robot who gets nervous at times. She has a red dress which is made of painted rusty metal and wears a funnel-like hat on top of her head. She lives in an old, rusty bucket, and she constantly has new ideas on how to improve and decorate it. She's very impulsive and accidentally prone, though, and tense situations or anything that causes her to get overexcited can make her overheat and release puffs of steam from her funnel. She also has a childish crush on Sporty.
Stripy : A big Little Robot made with colored stripes of metal, he's practically the complete opposite of Sporty: moves and talks slowly, but he's a deep and introspective thinker, also a specialist in flowers and storytelling. His best friend is Teddy, his metallic silver teddy bear, and his favourite activities are taking care of his garden, telling stories to his friends and playing games that require little agility and lots of skill. He is the Oldest and largest of the Little Robots and he is also very gentle.
Noisy : A red Little Robot who speaks very loudly, has a trumpet for a nose, plays instruments, writes and sings songs, and loves whatever kind of noise she can produce. Her house is an old drum, with a xylophone-themed entryway. Her passion for loud music and noise can often be bothersome for her friends, but she's also a great entertainer.
Spotty : A round, heavy, yellow, Little Robot covered in coloured spots, wears specs, and can retract all her limbs and roll around like a ball for fast locomotion. She has a strong personality, likes rules and orders, and tends to give orders to her friends. In some episodes of the show she has a glassy front which means that there is a reflection of a studio member and camera throughout the series.
Scary : A purple Little Robot with a black cape. He is a great actor with a Donald Sinden-esque voice and likes to scare his friends and stage shows to entertain his friends. He has his own stage, which is also his house.
Flappy the Bat : a character from the show who is Scary's bat.
The Sparky Twins : A debatably greenish blue Little Robot couple with different coloured belly buttons. The twins are almost identical, are full of energy, love dancing, and doing practical jokes on other robots. Sparky One has a pink spot on her belly and Sparky Two has a yellow spot on her belly. They are able to communicate over distances by exchanging electrical rays through the antennae on their heads, and their catch phrase is Gimmie Three, Sparkee!They live in a pair of speakers by an old record turntable.
Other characters are the Robo-Birds, who often play important roles on the show.
The series was originally in-development by Lego Media, a subsidiary of The Lego Group that produced Video Games and TV shows based on Lego products and properties. which rebranded to Create TV and Film in 2003.
As time has passed, the episodes have eventually become very scarce and hard to find, some are considered as “Lost Media”. All that remains online is the theme tune.
