"I can fix it!"
―Fix-It Felix Jr.'s catchphrase

Fix-It Felix, Jr. is a character (one of the deuteragonists) of the Wreck-It Ralph series and the protagonist of his video game of the same name. He is voiced by Jack McBrayer.

Official Bio

Fix-It Felix Jr.: The All-Around Good Guy
"Felix is the popular star of Fix-It Felix Jr. and Niceland's hammer-wielding maintenance man who's beloved by all. When he is not busy fixin' all of Ralph's wreckin', this gold-medal-winning good guy is being showered with kisses, praise and pies from his tenants. Hardwired for niceness, anything other than being "The Good Guy" just doesn't compute."

Appearance

Felix is a diminutive man wearing a light blue plumber's shirt, dark blue jeans and a blue cap with gold initials, along with an aqua name tag on his shirt, a white undershirt, blue eyes, and brown hair. He also wears light brown leather workboots and workgloves along with a plumber's toolbelt. Felix always carries a magical, golden hammer that was given to him by his father. This hammer allows Felix to instantly fix nearly anything with a single tap, including physical injuries.

His appearances, mostly clothing, changed throughout character development from wearing overalls to modern plumbers uniform. At first (it was shown in one of the presentations of the movie's development), he was to wear a yellow shirt and a slightly different utility belt. However, the design changed into a light blue shirt with an aqua name tag on it, and the belt's appearance changed as well.

Personality

Felix is a cheery, lovable, and kind-hearted hero. He brings joy to the Nicelanders by fixing their apartment windows whenever Ralph destroys them. As a result, he is often given praises, pies, and has parties thrown in his honor. During the parties, Felix is shown to be a gregarious person. Felix doesn't treat Ralph as the Nicelanders do, and even seems to be a bit sympathetic towards him, but cannot stand up for him against the Nicelanders.

When Ralph tires of his treatment by the Nicelanders and leaves the game during work hours to find a medal, Felix is courageous enough to take responsibility and risk his life for his game by searching for him. Felix also shows he has a romantic side, as seen when he develops the "honeyglows" for Sergeant Calhoun. He never swears and has a charm about him that reminds the viewer that he was made to be a hero of the '80s; he is good right down to his core, to the point of disbelief of others. 

Felix often is the peacekeeper between Ralph and the Nicelanders and is the one to step between the two parties in a quarrel. In the beginning of the film, he merely thought of Ralph as his colleague, but as the story went on, he began to refer to see through his eyes and think of him as a friend, later calling him his "brother," in a friendly manner.

Trivia

  • His main inspiration is Mario. Both characters appear as technicians physically short in stature, and both have caps, short brown hair, and brown boots.
  • He appears to take some visual inspiration (namely his hair and facial shape) from Stanley the Bugman, an otherwise unmemorable Nintendo hero from Donkey Kong 3.
  • In the video game, he claims that he is lactose intolerant.
  • His family is said to consist of at least a father, but said father does not make an appearance in any media.
  • During the film's earliest development, Felix was cast as the central character instead of Ralph, and he would assist Ralph directly. However, Felix's role was changed to that of a secondary main character to avoid interfering with the plot between Vanellope and Ralph.
  • Felix's clothes were also changed during his development. He wore overalls to a yellow shirt with tucked sleeves, and a different belt. In the final film he wears a blue shirt and a name tag on it with a different belt.
  • Felix can speak Q*Bertese, albeit with difficulty.
  • Felix's smart, but a little cowardly personality is very similar to Luigi from the Mario series.
  • Felix appears to be good friends with Sonic The Hedgehog. Sonic was at the 30th anniversary party, and attended Felix and Calhoun's wedding in the second row with the Nicelanders, suggesting that Felix reserved the seat for him.
  • True to his name and for the purpose of his game, Felix can fix or reinforce anything with his magical golden hammer, including, apparently, physical injuries. This leaves him incapable of destruction or harm.
  • Felix is the fourth hero in a Disney animated feature to be incarcerated, the first three being Prince Phillip from Sleeping BeautyAladdin from Aladdin, and Flynn Rider from Tangled.
  • In one scene of the film, Felix references Mario during the party, one of his inspirations. This may also indicate that Mario is a friend of Felix as he apparently invited him to the party.
  • In The Art of Wreck-It Ralph, Felix's pages show changes in his appearance throughout the film's development. He progresses from a figure made of measuring rulers, to a human wearing overalls, and finally to a human wearing a modern plumber's uniform.
  • Fix-It Felix Jr. has some similarities with his voice actor, Jack McBrayer.
  • Felix is the second Disney character voiced by Jack McBrayer (first is Irving from Phineas and Ferb). McBrayer later voiced the main character of Wander Over Yonder.
    • However, Felix is the first to be voiced by Jack McBrayer in a Disney feature while Irving is the first to be voiced by the same actor in a Disney TV series.
  • Despite being inspired by Mario from Mario Bros., Fix-It Felix Jr. also has some similarities with another Disney character, Manny Garcia, from Handy Manny.
    • They have similar clothes: cap, short-sleeved shirt, an undershirt, tool belt, gloves, jeans (with rolled up sleeves), and shoes.
    • They both had round noses.
    • They both have "magical" tools.
    • They both fix things.
    • Both of them are short in height.
    • Many people found them to be cute.
    • Manny's motto sounded similar to Felix's catchphrase.
    • Manny's "pet" was named Fix-It which is now Felix's title.
      • However, they had a few differences too.
        • Manny is Hispanic and speaks English as his second language while Felix looked more European and speaks English with a touch of Southern slang.
        • Manny never took off his hat, except at the wedding episode, and Felix toke his hat off several times in the film.
        • Handy Manny is the primary protagonist in his own TV series while Felix is the tritagonist in a feature film.
  • Despite being the central protagonist in the game Fix-It Felix Jr., Felix seems to be the only one who does not think Ralph is truly villainous beyond his role as the antagonist. He seems to only repudiate Ralph in order to stay "on top" with the "good guys", and generally tries to cease all arguments between the "good guys" and Ralph.
  • Even though Felix wears a short-sleeved blue shirt and carries a golden hammer in the game (and in the film), the film shows that the Fix It Felix Jr. game cabinet has pictures of him wearing a yellow shirt and carrying a normal hammer. This was typical of arcade cabinets in the time of the game's creation, as the art tended to be more intricate and stylized than the in-game graphics could display, and would sometimes be based on concept sketches that did not resemble the final game.
  • In the junior novelization when Mary is announcing the cake flavors when she gets to Felix, she does not get cut off by Ralph and all of the Nicelanders say vanilla, so Felix's favorite cake flavor is vanilla.
  • Felix wielding a hammer throughout each stage may be a loose reference to Wrecking Crew, although in that game Mario destroys structures rather than repair them.
  • Ironically, despite the fact that Felix knows who Turbo is and what the phrase "Going Turbo" actually means the two never directly interact onscreen in the movie.
  • It's very possible that Felix met Turbo in person before he became King Candy, hence why he knows him. If so, it's unknown what relationship they had with each other.
  • Felix and Sprocket from the Skylanders series have some similarities.
    • They have similar catchphrases (Sprocket's is "The fix is in", Felix's is "I can fix it")
    • They both carry special tools.
    • They both wear blue clothes.
