Tropes used in Dino Breaker include:

• Anime Hair: Taken to an extreme extent.
• Bishonen: Robert. He's quite vain about it too.
• Butt Monkey: Gelato
• Conspicuous CG: The hand-drawn stuff was by Xebec, the CG was largely farmed out to CGCG, a Taiwanese CG company owned by Wang Film Productions and a studio by the name of Studio Galapagos. Not that it's as noticeable compared to other shows mind you.
• Conveniently an Orphan: All of F199.
• Everything's Better with Dinosaurs: Dinosaur mecha!
• Hot-Blooded: Jet Seigel the most, but a lot of other characters.
• Long-Lost Relative: Jet Seigel's brother Zack carbon-copies Racer X pefectly - he fakes his own death, then returns under the guise of Phantom Knight, with only his driving skills clueing Jet (and the audience) in on who he is.
• Ship Tease: Between Marcia and Tak in episode 8.
• Stock Dinosaurs: Each a different mecha.
• Team Pet: Moke
• Those Two Guys: The glory-hounding fake DICE team, which gets into trouble a lot.
• Transforming Mecha: Each dinobreaker transforms from a vehicle to a dinosaur shaped mecha.
• Tsundere: Puffy Angel towards Jet Seigel. She runs so hot and cold for him it's easy to see.
• Tyrannosaurus Rex: Two mechas shaped like it.
