Main

 * Noddy (voiced by Louis Ashbourne Serkis in Series 1 and Santiago Winder in Series 2 in the British English version, Valin Shinyei and Antonio Mattera in the American English version, and Brigitte Lecordier in the French version ) is an investigator in Toyland. Whenever Noddy finds a mystery difficult to solve, and says “This investigation  is really hard”, Bumpy, Big Ears, or Revs usually encourages him, and he always goes back to what Big Ears/ Mr. Squeaks always says, “A good investigator looks and looks again”, “thinks and thinks again”, or “investigates and investigates again”.  Whenever he knows that he’s solved the case, the bell on his blue hat rings, and he says “Ring a Ding”. He also uses his pad to help him solve cases to compare what he has taken photos of and asks, “who wears…”?, or “who has…?” At the end of each episode, he takes a group photo after the mystery has been solved and declares "case... closed!"
 * Bumpy the Dog is Noddy's dog and trusty sidekick. He licks Noddy’s face, whenever he says,this investigation’s really hard, and afterwards thanks Bumpy and then quotes Big Ears.
 * Big Ears (voiced by Jonathan Kydd) is Noddy's neighbour and mentor. He is a squeaky toy brownie. He is known as Mr. Squeaks in the North American dub. Prior to Noddy starting his investigation, Big Ears always asks him, “How are you going to solve this one Noddy”?, of “what are you going to do today Noddy?” Whenever Noddy solves a case, he says to him, “Well done Noddy, you’ve solved the investigation, how did you do it? Noddy then does a trick by twirling his pad on his finger, and says, “Thanks”, and explains how he did it.
 * Revs is Noddy's red and yellow car which is alive and communicates by using the horn. He can also transform into a helicopter.

Supporting

 * Pat-Pat (voiced by Martha Howe-Douglas) is one of Noddy's closest friends. She's a creative, kind and friendly Panda plush toy who wears a pink dress. She has three smaller panda friends called the Pockets. The Pockets are extremely high-energy and excitable. When running they transform into black and white tennis balls.
 * Deltoid (voiced by Bob Golding) is a male, futuristic toy superhero with a white sleeveless shirt, and tall, blonde hair. He is the strongest toy in all of Toyland, and aspires to be brave and noble, but is sometimes afraid and naive. He may have a crush on Smartysaurus. He usually makes statements like; “I, deltoid…” or “ha ha ha ha”, when showing off his athletic skills. He can also be something of a clutz, not least because he occasionally forgets things.
 * Smartysaurus (voiced by Jess Robinson) is a female, blue toy dinosaur who wears a white lab coat and clear goggles. She is a super smart scientist. She often adds "-saurus" or "-asarus" to the ends of words like when she describes herself as a "clumsy-saurus" or says "point-asaurus" when remembering how to perform a dance move. She also usually wears purple sunglasses and a lab coat, as such, making her Toyland's resident (and only) scientist.
 * Fuse (voiced by Jonathan Kydd) is a male, white, modern toy robot, with a blue coloured screen that shows his face. He can change his face by saying the way he feels, and the face that goes with the feeling he has said (like Baby from Kuu Kuu Harajuku) He is emotional, but gleeful.
 * Farmer Tom is a friendly farmer and near neighbor to Pat-Pat.
 * Tractor is Farmer Tom's tractor who communicates by using his horn.
 * Clockwork Mouse is a female wind-up mouse who dresses in a yellow blouse with daisies, who is the mayor of Brickabuild. She is loosely based on the character from the classic Noddy series.

 * Ninjas are four ninjas who live in Daredale, wearing blue, green, pink, and red.
 * The Knights – Five Knights in Fable Forest. They're shown to be somewhat clumsy, but not so much that they may be considered inept.
 * The Naughticorns are three unicorns who live in the Fable Forest Stables.
 * Hoof is an indigo, male Unicorn with straight, dark blue hair. He is emotional and silly, he often plays pranks on others, and sometimes it hurts their feelings. But inside, he has a good heart, and always apologizes when he does something wrong.
 * Bling is a pink, female Unicorn with curly, dark pink hair. She is very vain, and looks at her appearance often. She also thinks of herself a lot, and She sometimes makes remarks that aren't nice. But she makes up for them later, and tries to be a good friend to others.
 * Cloppycorn is a White, male unicorn with shaggy, light blue green hair. He is smaller than the other two, and is shy. Hoof and Bling often make him do things they don't want to do first. He always tries to get attention from them, but they sometimes forget about him. But they truly do like him, and try their best to be nice to him.
