 Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })C.O.P.S., which stands for Central Organization of Police Specialists, was an animated series produced by DiC Entertainment that premiered in 1988 as one of the many Merchandise-Driven 65-Episode Cartoons made for syndication. A few years later, it was re-run on CBS' Saturday morning schedule, this time under the name Cyber COPS for obvious reasons. The show was based on a toy line called C.O.P.S 'n' Crooks, which were futuristic police and criminal based action figures produced by Hasbro.Set in the year 2020, the show took place in the metropolis Empire City. The main story revolved around Agent Baldwin P. Vess, codename "Bulletproof", who has been sent out to stop Big Boss (no relation), a criminal mastermind who has taken over the city. However, after being attacked by the henchmen of Big Boss and suffering a near-fatal wound, Vess is taken to the hospital and given a new bullet-resistant torso. While he is recovering, he contacts Officer P.J. O'Malley (aka LongArm) and rookie Donny Brooks (HardTop) to find the best law enforcement officers around. They are able to recruit several people. Among them are David E. "Highway" Harlson, Colt "Mace" Howards, Stan "Barricade" Hyde, Tina "Mainframe" Cassidy, Walker "Sundown" Calhoun, Suzie "Mirage" Young, Hugh S. "Bullseye" Forward, and Rex "Bowser" Pointer and his robot dog, Blitz. Together these people make up C.O.P.S., using their combined power to stop Big Boss.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); })At the very same time as the cartoon, there was also a C.O.P.S. comic book by DC Comics, which had a much different storyline that was Darker and Edgier.Compare with You're Under Arrest!, an anime with a similar (if not more realistic & relatively modern) perspective.

 Action Figure File Card: The toys had them; they were written by Larry Hama, who also wrote the G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero cards. This may explain the Checkpoint)/Beach Head connection noted in All There in the Manual.
