Drake's costume is reminiscent of various 1970's Japanese superhero outfits like [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casshan Neo-Human Casshern] or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Science_Ninja_Team_Gatchaman Gatchaman] .

He sports a helmet with a blue (yellow in the international version) visor and a yellow V on his chest. His face can barely be seen through his visor, and when visible it is shown that his "teeth" are always showing, a supposed heroic smile. He also has a blaster holstered on the left side of his belt, possibly indicating that he's left-handed. In later appearances like ''Captain Rainbow'', his chin protrudes and is the only visible part of his head, while in [[Chibi-Robo! Photo Finder|''Chibi-Robo! Photo Finder'']] only part of his eyes are distinguishable. Drake's design was changed drastically in [[Chibi-Robo! Photo Finder|''Chibi-Robo! Photo Finder'']]; he instead sports a thinner belt with a new design on the buckle, his helmet completely covers his face, and he has a more organic design that makes him seem like a modern action figure. | ||

Following the defeat of the [[Queen Spydor]], Drake will stand on the chair in the [[Living Room]], asking [[Chibi-Robo]] to watch the news with him to relax. The news informs him that [[Chibi-Robo]]s are causing an energy crisis, leading him to believe that Chibi-Robo is on the path of evil! Having an internal crisis, he asks Chibi-Robo to leave him alone for a bit. If his part in the [[Mort]] and [[Princess Pitts]] story is complete, he will be found outside the following night, with the [[Alien|aliens]]. He tells Chibi-Robo to perform his special attack Great Twin Blizzard with him, since it requires the cooperation of two Space Hunters. The team attack summons a meteor of ice onto the [[Alien|aliens]], which actually ends up helping them, thus completing his story. | Following the defeat of the [[Queen Spydor]], Drake will stand on the chair in the [[Living Room]], asking [[Chibi-Robo]] to watch the news with him to relax.
