In the last All-Stars Racing title, fans pushed for NiGHTS and Ristar and ended up with NiGHTS making a cameo as the flagman and Ristar appearing alongside the track in the Death Egg DLC. Now, in Sonic & All-Stars Racing Transformed, NiGHTS moved his way up to the racing roster leaving the flagman spot open. Sumo Digital hinted that a flying character would take NiGHTS place, and fans speculated on a number of characters including Opa Opa. But in the end, thanks to a preview from ve3tro.com, Ristar has been confirmed as the game’s flagman.
Ad:You know the development team tried their best when the race starts and Ristar is cheerfully waving the flag. Each of the courses is a visual treat that will certainly make gamers smile. The various transformations that take place in real time make it even more exciting to look at.

Pretty cool. I still wish we could race as Ristar though.
Fantastic. I’m happy Ristar made it into the game!
awesome! glad he’s in the game!
Yea glad he is in the game. Saw it coming that he wasnt going to be playable. He is basically a black dot from behind. Pretty cool to have his appearance like that.
I hope they have redesigned him like they did with Alex Kidd.
I was kinda hoping that Omochao would be Flagman and Ristar would be playable, but this works as well.
Is the Character roster (not including DLC) final?
