Description
"Hey! I should draw some fanart of Lego Racers, my most favourite game of all time!-- my thoughts before beginning the tortuous journey that was drawing this.
So lieeeek Lego Racers is pretty much the best game EVRAR!! It's just a racing game, kinda like Mario Kart, but with lego characters. Come to think of it, you don't actually do much in it, but it's just SO much fun!!! And the bosses are SO cool! XD
Here we have (right to left)
King Kahuka - who in the game is yellow, and lego guys are yellow, so he'd be naked o_O... that's why he's hiding behind -----
Basil the Batlord - me and my brothers call him 'Basil the Fatlord' because we're comic geniuses, so I decided to take some artistic license and make him a vigilante villian type in a sweater that his mum knitted for him with a belt that's just a liiiittle too tight in a cardboard mask that he made at home all by himself
Gypsy Moth - who until I researched, I thought she was a man. >_>...
Rocket Racer - the main boss dude, who's a cocky bastard and a BITCH to beat... so I gave him a tiny penis
Veronica Voltage - She's the boss of the time trials, and I only realised when I was looking at my reference of her that's she's totally an alternative chick! Her top lipstick is black and bottom lipstick is red, and she's got those weird circle sunglasses!! Respect for you, Voltage.
Johnny Thunder - well the way I drew him he looks more like one of the Village People but he's MEANT to be some Indiana Jones-esque explorer dude.
Baron von Barron - the rival of Johnny Thunder with an eternally changing name... in Lego Racers 2 he's called Sam Sinister, who's actually a drone racer in his track. o_O
Captain Redbeard - the epitome of gay pirates. He's the first boss and I was the one who finally defeated him *proud face*
tl;dr: LEGOOOOO!!!
But yeah, I tried to make them as close to the originals as possible, which is hard when the originals are pixellated lego people. Some insane fan made actual lego figurines of them, here's what they ACTUALLY look like. [link]

I remember playing it, it was a quite a challenge. I loved using the highest speed level (that blue "black hole") because othewise I fought for a position all the time. Gypsy Moth took me most time to beat (I couldn't even get 2nd nor 3rd place but after tens of tries I finally got the 1st place) , she was a real monster. That last race with Rocket Racer was pretty fun, nice looking track and music and I beated him relatively soon. Veronica wasn't hard to beat. Great work on that picture.

Johnny Thunder, reappears in Lego Island 2 helping Pepper, along his team.
Baron Von Baron, reappears in Lego Island 2, where he's a henchman of Brickster. Pepper was intended to fight him later in the game, after he tries to reach Ogel, explaining why you have to Parachute in Ogel. And also he was intended as a Mid-Boss when Pepper has to defeat Brickster once for all.

You say King Kahuka "be naked", but he does indeed have leaves in the crotchers. Though, I guess none of us would still want to see only that anyway, so correct choice for making him in hiding.

The LEGO figures you posted a link to aren't that surprising since most of these characters exist in real life, i actually have a few of these myself! ; )

By the way, those Figurines weren't made by the Fan, they are in a Number of Sets.
Why is Gypsy Moth's Hand white?

Quotes that come to mind:
King Kahuka: Somebody find me a belt.
Basil the Batlord: I want these racers to grovel at my feet NOW!!
Gypsy Moth: You're gonna have to do better than that.
Rocket Racer: I'll be waiting for you at the finish line.
Veronica Voltage: When is Mr. Adventure going to leave me alone?
Johnny Thunder: G'day, Miss Voltage.
Baron von Barron: Nyah ha ha, I will crush all of you.
Captain Redbeard: Arr, ye have no chance of beating me

This takes me back. I was about five when I first played the game and I just had to take down each boss one by one. Basil and Rocket were always the ones that gave me the most trouble. I also remember finding all the short cuts and the secret ways to get through the level. These drawings really capture the spirit of lego racers light heartiness and this a great fan art.

I'm surprised that characters like Veronica Voltage, Gypsy Moth and Rocket Racer are so unpoppular. The game has its years and they aren't completely unknown o_o

I call Basil, Basil the Faplord, cause he's incredibly difficult to beat.

Excellent, I just recently reinstalled Lego Racers 1 when I learned that there were now Mod Tools floating around the web. Turned out the rumors were true, and I finally got to race five of the boss racers at once, instead of being bored out of my skull by those pathetic drone racers. Anyway, great job (even though I'm pretty sure that the Baron von Barron is supposed to have a metal hook instead of his right hand, just like Captain Redbeard)

Oh man I love this, seriously you captured them all so perfectly.
I think Redbeard has had a shave... and lost a lot of weight
But seriously, I really love this.
I bet that old Bat Lord is kinda chubby, he sits home snacking on weird foods and flying dragons around and stuff.
And yeah, the Sam Sinister Switcheroo is a pretty famous screw-up in LEGO. There's still no explanation and now LEGO jokes about it. The top hat guy is the real Sam Sinister, and apparently the Baron (Mr. Hates) stole his name for lulz or something.
But seriously, I love LEGO Racers, and I love this.

Man, I'm actually pretty impressed someone remembers this game besides me. Lucky I still have it lying around... somewhere.
And actually, Gypsy Moth's gender has come as a complete surprise. Wonder how many people this happened to?

You definately got their personalities spot on, your take on Johnny Thunder is my favourite of the bunch XD

Anything to play the awesomeness of Lego Racers again

Don't! The PS1 version has terrible delay in the controls which makes harder than it should, especially against Basil, Gypsy and Rocket Racer!
