Description
Personality
Rokit always treats every task that he does as important, regardless of how important it actually is - just like a soldier does! This causes him to be easily annoyed by his tribe mates for not sharing this attitude. He is in a way dare-going because he was the only one who wanted to use his own Rokit Sauce - which resulted in an explosion!
Physical Appearance
Rokit has a yellow-green body and a large underbite with three teeth pointing up over the body. The top of the jaw has two teeth underneath, and a head with two eyes sloping up to a glass dome with a golden slab beneath a grey T-shape tilted 90 degrees to the left, with a white highlight at the bottom. Jutting out of the back of his body is a grey jet-pack with a red tipped top. He has arms with grey backs, and yellow-green fronts with red sticks pointing out, and black hands. He has white feet with golden circular toenails.
Ability
Rokit has two arms that can blast streams of lasers.
Biography
Early life
Not much is known about Rokit's early life. During Nurp-Naut's bedtime, he told him the story of the Glowkies, which ended up coming true as the tribe arrived to greet them. They ended up failing at a botched attempt to protect themselves as the Glowkies left in confusion.
First adventures
During an abduction of the Infernites with their Ship-Space, he and his brothers welcomed them to the Mixel Moon. Thanks to some misunderstandings, both tribes got into a Max battle, but befriended each other in the end.
He ended up the one to explain the big flaw in Orbitopia's dome design.
During a welcome party, he made Crater Tots, which were later stolen by a Nixel. He teamed up with Burnard to get it back by using Rokit Sauce to make him explode. He ended up eating another batch by himself, as there were no takers to the ones covered in Rokit Sauce. However, even he couldn't handle the spiciness.
During a supposed raid by the Glowkies, he teamed up with Meltus to fend them off. After clearing things out, he joined them in cave rave.
When it was revealed in Flamzer's story that he did not exist, he broke down in tears. ("Mixel Moon Madness").
Further adventures
Rokit had attended a special convention with his Orbiton brothers, fellow alien tribe the Glowkies, and new friends, the Infernites. At it, they competed in quite a few events. ("Mixels Convention Craze")
Rokit was one of many Mixels who were forced to outrun the Nixelstorm and help shut it down. ("Mixels Rush")
Rokit was one of almost all the Mixels that searched and fought for the Mixamajig. ("A Quest for the Lost Mixamajig")

LEGO Shop product description
Live life on the edge with Rokit!
Rokit, the unhinged trooper from the intrepid Orbitons tribe, does everything as if his life depends on it – and we mean everything! Whether getting a cup of coffee, waiting at a crosswalk or petting a kitten, this intense creature with laser-style probe arms approaches all day-to-day tasks with vigor. The other Orbitons just don’t seem to share his ‘all-in’ attitude, which annoys Rokit no end!

Background Information
- He replaced Flain, Slumbo, and Torts for Series 4 on the icon for Mixels on the LEGO.com products page. He was later replaced by Gox, and then finally, Kramm.
Trivia
- He seems to have some sort of mechanical brain inside his dome. This also proves that Mixels do indeed have brains, and possibly other vital organs. At the same time, his dome is detachable from his head, as seen when it pops up sometimes.
- His jaw is higher up on his animated model than on his static image.
- His guns often switch between being hand-held and being connected to his arms.
- His toenails are the most unique compared to others.
- He tends to call other Mixels "cadets", with the exception of Niksput, due to the fact that he is the leader. In his case, he calls him "sir". Additionally, he calls Nurp "little space cadet".
- He seems to have taken a leading position in Mixel Moon Madness.
- Rokit Sauce seems to be named after him; thus, he probably invented it. He also appears to be the only one to enjoy it, as in the episode Crater Tots.
- He seems to enjoy cooking Crater Tots.
Behind the Scenes
Early development
Rokit was originally going to look angrier and more serious, and his blasters were longer. He was originally going to have a more human, pink brain.[1]
Name and basis
Rokit's name is an intentional misspelling of "rocket".
Rokit appears to be based on an alien, as he is mostly green, has two laser blasters that are occasionally used by stereotypical aliens in science fiction stories, has an odd brain, and his element is based on space.
Voice
In the TV series, and where sound clips are used, Rokit's voice is provided by Phil Hayes. His voice has a slight Southern twang to it, a common trait in drill sergeant-style characters.
Real-life history
Rokit appeared with the rest of Series 4 through 6 at Toy Fairs in late January and early February 2015.
Rokit debuted in the TV series on March 9, 2015 in Mixel Moon Madness, while his LEGO set officially became available on February 1 with the rest of Series 4.
