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.

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. | ||
