Star Command Team Lightyear •
Buzz Lightyear (voiced by
Patrick Warburton, voiced by
Tim Allen in
The Adventure Begins pilot) is a famed Space Ranger and the leader of Team Lightyear. Buzz often suggests that his archenemy Emperor Zurg is behind every evil plot and is often proven correct. Like his
Toy Story incarnation, Buzz is idealistic and a stickler for procedure, but will tell a cover story if he needs to. However, he has few people skills, and at times displays a lack of common sense. •
Mira Nova (voiced by
Nicole Sullivan) is a rookie ranger and heir to the throne of the planet Tangea who possesses
intangibility and
telepathy. She acts as Buzz's co-pilot and second-in-command. Mira also has an estranged relationship with her father, King Nova, who disapproves of her choice of being a Space Ranger, though she still cares about him. •
Booster Sinclair Munchapper (voiced by
Stephen Furst) is a frog/dinosaur-like alien from the agricultural planet of Jo-ad. He has a big appetite and incredible strength, but is sweet and occasionally naive. He is in awe of Buzz Lightyear and has encyclopedic knowledge of his prior adventures. •
XR: Xperimental Ranger (voiced alternatively by
Larry Miller and
Neil Flynn) is a small robot who was originally emotionless and programmed to learn from Buzz, but was destroyed by Agent Z during his first mission. The LGMs rebuilt him with a slicker, more emotional personality and a variety of unique and unusual attachments. XR is destroyed on nearly every mission he goes on (as it is revealed XR stands for Expendable Ranger), but is easily rebuilt. He considers Commander Nebula his father due to him unintentionally signing the paperwork authorizing his creation and is always seeking his approval, much to his annoyance.
Other personnel •

Plasma Boy (voiced by
Michael Showalter) is Petra's boyfriend, who can transform into a plasma monster. Booster competed against him for Petra's affection. Mira and XR inadvertently destabilize Plasma Boy's body, but stabilize him and prevent him from exploding, after which he joins Star Command. •

Grubs (all voiced by

Brain Pods (variously voiced by
Jeff Bennett,
Dan Castellaneta,
Sean Hayes,
Tress MacNeille,
Jeremy Piven,

Frank Welker) are brains in mobile jars, who serve Zurg as scientists and researchers. Although they take pride in their creations, they secretly harbor a desire to escape from Zurg's control as Buzz secretly helps them with that. • The
Hornets are Zurg's
robotic foot soldiers. They are incompetent and easily destroyed. Hornets come in different models, but the most frequently seen are yellow and of average height. •

Brad Garrett) is an alien with four arms and five eyes who has committed various crimes, including
terrorism,
smuggling,
arson, and unpaid parking tickets. He possesses a mechanical cell-separation chest implant created by Zurg that enables him to clone himself. •
Smeego (voiced by
Phil LaMarr) is a small-time crook on Trade World and an acquaintance of Torque. •

vampire created by Zurg who can drain electricity and control any machine he bites. In the episode "Revenge of the Monsters", NOS-4-A2 attempts to transform everyone in the galaxy into robots for him to feed on, but is defeated and destroyed. His name is a parody of

Recurring villains •
Chlorm Scientists -
Era (voiced by
Jonathan Harris),
Eon (voiced by
Bill Mumy), and
Epoch (voiced by
Frank Welker) are Chlorm scientists. They implanted devices into Buzz and Warp Darkmatter during their academy days to study the residents of the galaxy. After Warp first began working for Zurg, at Epoch's suggestion, their study shifted to the differences between good and evil and which was better. Eon preferred the former and Era the latter. After learning of the implants, Buzz and Warp broke into their lab and prematurely ended their study. They were subsequently demoted to zoo and research facilities by their next appearance. Era, Eon, and Epoch began kidnapping Galactic Alliance senators off Capital Planet for the zoo, seeing other races as lesser, wild animals, but Team Lightyear thwarted them. •
Crumford Lorak (voiced by
Jon Favreau) is a
con artist, reluctant
informant, and criminal commonly seen on Trade World. Crumford is in fact one of the Space Rangers best and worst assets when it came to gathering info on major bad guys. The only time when Crumford went big-time was when he impersonated Senator Banda of Bathyos to give information of the Galactic Alliance to Varg. •
Gargantian Militants are tiny beings who hide in robotic exosuits to infiltrate what they desire. The Gargantian Militants hate commercial places on their planets like pizza restaurants as well as the fact that their people joined the Galactic Alliance, preventing war. As a joke, most Gargantian names (as well as the species as a whole) are an ironic pun to their small stature. •

Kevin Michael Richardson) is the leader of the Gargantian Militants. •
Monumentus (voiced by
Charles Fleischer) is the second-in-command of the Gargantian Militants. •
Immensitor (voiced by Kevin Michael Richardson) is a member of the Gargantian Militants. •

Ryan Stiles) was originally Spyro Lepton, a former Star Command scientist. His banned experiments lead to his transformation into a Cryborg, a crystalline entity who can empower himself by absorbing electricity. After years of plotting revenge on Buzz Lightyear and a rampage on Capital Planet, he is restored to normal by his daughter Bonnie Lepton. He has supposedly reformed. •
Bonnie Lepton (voiced by
Tara Strong) is the daughter of Spyro Lepton. Though she is not evil, Bonnie has been helping her father in his experiments. She develops a crush on Buzz Lightyear and helps in stopping her father. However, she is resentful that both Buzz and her father treat her like a child. •
Vartkes (voiced by
Ricardo Montalbán) is a gas baron who Buzz encounters after temporarily resigning from Star Command. •
Flint (voiced by
Mark Hamill) is an android stockboy who got tired of his forced labor and planned revenge.

He portrayed himself to be the leader of the village where the castaways resided until he was exposed and defeated by Team Lightyear. •
Keno Kentrix (voiced by
Jess Harnell) is a Bathyosian casino owner on Mahambas 6 who secretly smuggles weapons. •
The Heed are a race of supposedly semi-omnipotent beings who in fact have an ulterior motive, that of conquering the galaxy (much like the
Borg in the
Star Trek franchise). A Heed named
Guzelian (voiced by
Eric Idle) used the Grubs and the LGM's to trick the galaxy into believing that he was spreading galactic peace. Once both sides had disable their weapons, the Heed would take the opportunity to strike. However, Buzz and Zurg team up to stop them by broadcasting Guzelian's confession all across the galaxy and destroyed their mothership. They then fled back to their homeworld as both Star Command and Zurg's empire rearmed themselves. •
Smoltz (voiced by
Wallace Langham) is from the same alien race as the Madame President. He was a turn-coat working for Zurg when the Madame President's transport crashed on Karn. When Zurg and his Hornets drove away some Karnian creatures, he revealed his true intentions and the reason why Mira Nova was picked for that mission. When Team Lightyear rescue Mira and the Madame President, Smoltz and Zurg pursued them before being chased away by a mother Narlzak and her young. • The
Care-Bots (voiced by
Wallace Langham) are robotic butlers built by the owners of an incredibly large spaceship. They are the embodiment of the term, "neat-freak", as they believe that cleanliness is alpha priority. This led to disaster, as they believed that organic beings and XR caused disorder, and for the sake of their pristine spaceship they attempted to "take care of" every living being and XR on the ship using hi-tech freeze rays, including the pilots. This nearly caused their massive shuttle to crash into Capital Planet's sun, which would have caused a supernova and destroyed the surrounding galaxy. They were last seen drifting in space. •
Natron (voiced by
Diedrich Bader) is an ancient evil space
mummy. In his time, he ruled the universe as an ultimate "invincible" evil. Defeated and imprisoned by the Protector, he vowed to once again rule the universe, and is awakened by the LGMs on Planet X thousands of years later. He takes Warp's life force and begins using his technology to attack and freeze everyone on Capital Planet. He is stopped when the LGMs returned the stolen life force to warp and is imprisoned again. • The
