Personality and Bio[]
Major Nixel was originally thought to be the Nixels' boss and leader. In reality, he is a high-ranking commander who works for King Nixel.
Major Nixel is a prominent villain for most of Season 1. His ultimate goal is to steal the Cubits everywhere from Mixel Land and destroy them so the Mixels cannot use their mixing powers, which is the only way said Mixels can defeat the Nixels.
However, he has a pretty bad memory, is easily angered, is a little bit cowardly and breaks down to tears.
Important Background[]
Mixed Up Special[]
Many say that Major Nixel's worst moment was in the Mixed Up Special (However, this is rivaled and overthrown by King Nixel's most cruelest event in the Season 3 Finale, Nixel, Nixel, Go Away). In the Epic Comedy Adventure Minisode, he arguably crosses the Moral Event Horizon when he attacks the Mixels during their annual Mix Festival. In the Special, it was revealed that Major Nixel has an aircraft shaped like a metal cloud; he flies over the festival in the aircraft and drops a nuclear atomic bomb/weapon hybrid called the Mega Nixel Mixel Nixer on the Mixels, turning every Mixel within range to transform into a zombie version of themselves and destroying their Cubits in the process (except for Flain, Krader, Flurr, Gobba, Kraw and Teslo).
The MNMN also required many Nixels to be sacrificed. Fortunately, not all of the Mixels were nixed because all the tribe leaders (with Gobba as an exception) had left the festival to get more hamlogna sandwiches after Zaptor ate them all. Major Nixel at first celebrated his victory, but when they returned, the tribe leaders tried to attack Major Nixel, only to be chased away by a swarm of his minions.
Major Nixel attempted to chase after the Mixels as well, but instead ran out of breath quickly and instead decided to make cupcakes, revealing that he is out of shape due to his old age.
Meanwhile, the tribe leaders collected the Rainbow Cubits from the top of Mixel Mountain by smashing the giant Rainbow Cubit, which undid the effects of the Mega Nixel Mixel Nixer and fought their way back to the festival, creating the Flain/Gobba Mix, the Krader/Kraw Mix and the Flurr/Teslo Mix. Then, Major Nixel is humiliated in front of all the Mixels when the Flain/Gobba Mix smashes cupcakes in his face, after Major asks what's missing in his cupcakes. He then swears revenge on the Mixels as he storms away, only to trip and run away crying in anger and agony.
Calling All Mixels[]
Major Nixel also appears in the Calling All Mixels app game as a boss. He carries a military baton which he uses to attack Mixels by whacking them with it. He can also call more Nixels.
On Cartoon Network's Calling All Mixels trailer, Major Nixel breaks the 4th wall multiple times by appearing on the screen and grabbing Cubits from the Mixels in the game.
Mixel Moon Madness[]
Major Nixel does not actually appear at all in this episode until the very end, where he receives word from one of his spies that there are Mixels out in space, on Mixel Moon. Frustrated by the news, Major Nixel claims that "If King Nixel gets word of this, he's gonna blow his top!". Major Nixel, long thought to have been the leader of the Nixels, gets approached by his now-known superior to address the news, which results in King Nixel shouting angrily, much to Major's fainting.
Mixels Rush[]
Not long after, the Major unleashed the Nixelstorm to blow away and separate the Mixels from each other; believing their weakness to be loneliness. However, the plan failed multiple times, and King Nixel got so enraged that he decided to take matters into his own hands.
A Quest for the Lost Mixamajig[]
Meeting with Major in his throne room, King Nixel scolded him on his many failures and threatened to take away his mustache, only for the King's mustache to fall off, to which the King says that the Major saw nothing and puts his mustache back on. Major Nixel pleaded for him not to, to which the King agrees to, and King Nixel then explained to him his "feeble" plan to turn the Mixels against each other. Major was then sent to find a Mixel to trick. Settling on Snoof, the Major ordered his Nixels to board an egg-shaped capsule, allowing the plan to be set into motion.
Later on, when all of the Mixels were in one place so King Nixel could exterminate them, they Maxed; destroying the sack that Major Nixel had trapped them in. Major then got scared and fled the scene in his boss' airship.
Nixel, Nixel, Go Away[]
Major Nixel assisted King Nixel by getting their Nixels into the city of Mixopolis and starting a colorless invasion. When everybody traded in their Cubits for the King's I-Cubit invention, they were rounded up by Major at Mixopolis Stadium to be nixed while he observed from the airship.
Back at the I-Cubit Building, a Glorp Corp Mixel named Booger, and his friends Zabo, Blip and Scrud, defeated King Nixel for good through "coordinated group dancing". Major, realizing their defeat, accepted it and rushed away from the city; telling the Nixel minion beside him that they had a nice long vacation ahead of them, as the two head off on their way to Rancho Cucamonga, California.
Trivia[]
- Major Nixel gets easily very out of shape and is not very active, as he tired out very easily when trying to chase the tribe leaders, and ended up leaving them for his minion Nixels to deal with in Epic Comedy Adventure.
- He has a white mustache and eyebrows, which means that he is old.
- This is further supported in the Japanese dub of the series, where he uses the pronoun "washi" to refer to himself. In fiction, "washi" is stereotypically used by old men.
- In Calling All Mixels, his epaulets' rope is colored gold, and his medal is colored red and gold, unlike in the series, where they both are black and white. Ironically, some loading screens show a picture of his animated model still using the black-and-white color scheme.
- Also, in that game, he carries a staff that he attacks with. This is the only appearance of it.
- His current appearance is the result of a promotion, as King Nixel often threatens to take away his mustache.
- He is the only antagonist to not receive a LEGO model.
