comment
The first (and most popular) Animated Show in the G.I. Joe franchise.G.I. Joe was formed with the express purpose of stopping the terrorist group Cobra and the weapon distributors, mercenaries and scientists they hire. The Joes consists of military personnel from the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard with a variety of skills and military specialties.The series premiered with a Five-Episode Pilot in 1983. The writing and distribution of the series was handled by both Marvel Productions and Sunbow Entertainment. Animation was done by Toei Animationnote with feeder studios Sei Young and Dai Won and occasionally AKOM (both uncredited, as was normal for Marvel/Sunbow shows of that time). The show ran for two whole seasons along with three other five episode mini-series until it was cancelled in 1986 after 95 episodes.Following G.I. Joe: The Movie in 1987, DIC Entertainment took over from Sunbow. Animation was done by Sei Young. Starting with the Five-Episode Pilot in 1989, Operation Dragonfire, the DIC series ran for two seasons from 1990 through 1992, lasting 44 episodes.All character files beneath command level of both factions require entries.

Used twice in "Joe's Night Out". The main plot has Cobra holding a nightclub full of patrons (and three Joes) hostage in orbit to get back Dr. Mullaney (the scientist who had been rescued in "There's No Place Like Springfield") and his research on a not-yet-perfected turbine that uses nitrogen from the air as fuel. After everyone is rescued the good doctor worries that Cobra may still be able to finish his work with the research data he took with him, but Mainframe reveals he slipped the computer virus from "Cobrathon" onto his disks. Cue Explosive Instrumentation...

Artistic License – Biology: The giant tube worms from the MASS Device miniseries are unquestionably eels, as real tube worms don't even have mouths, let alone eyes, fins and gill slits. And then there's everything Cobra-la had to throw against the GI Joes. In one of the PSAs, Billy faints and wakes up eleven seconds later when a wet cloth is applied to his forehead. He also falls backward; in real life a person who faints falls forward.

Villain Song
 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_1ccad9a3
comment
Villain Song: The episode "Cold Slither" has the eponymous band formed by Cobra lip-synch to a rather catchy song that fits Cobra and their agenda for world domination. The movie adds an opening verse about COBRA to the show's usual heroic theme song. The lyrics aren't explicitly from the villains' POV, but the backup singers do use COBRA's Catchphrase and the lead vocal's tone is threatening.

Failed a Spot Check: "The Pit of Vipers" has a truly egregious one. The Pentagon buys "Watchdog", a special defense program from Dr. Hamler, who's said to have been checked out and "his credentials are impeccable". At the end of the episode (after Watchdog is exposed as part of a Cobra plot), Flint lampshades the Pentagon should have checked a little closer to discover the real Dr. Hamler died in 1978. Lady Jaye while breaking into a hideout during the episode "Spell of the Siren"; she was only four or so yards away from a dozen enemies.

Aborted Arc
 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_23698fa8
comment
Aborted Arc: The later episodes of season 2 reveal that Cobra regrets creating Serpentor and are returning to Cobra Commander. But because the movie was released before season 2, Serpentor is back in charge and everyone hates Cobra Commander. During an early season 2 episode, Mainframe and Zarana start dating but are unable to be together since they are on opposite sides of the war. When they met again in a later episode, they still have feelings for each other, but there's never a definitive end to the subplot. In the DiC series, however, Zarana starts dating Destro for a while, and Mainframe isn't even part of the cast. After the season 1 episode of the same name, it was planned for the Gamesmaster to return at some point.

comment
Only Sane Man: Cobra Commander, of all people, tends to be the only sane person on occasions. Incredibly, when Serpentor is being created, he is actually the one person who recognizes how bad this can turn out. Sure, it's mostly because he doesn't want to lose control (and his own incompetence got him dethroned to begin with) but he also makes a terrific point when Mindbender declares his plan to use Sgt. Slaughter's DNA in place of Sun Tzu's. He's also proven dead right warning Serpentor that a full-scale invasion of Washington D.C. is one thing but holding onto the city against the full weight of the U.S. military and G.I. Joe is going to blow up in his face.

Defanged Horrors

comment
Defanged Horrors: A show that shows war against Nazis-lite within the limits 80s censors would pass. Never Say "Die" is averted throughout, and while death is rarely explicitly shown, it's taken perfectly seriously in-story. War crimes and abuse of prisoners are either hinted at, or done in a bloodless, fantastic manner. Which sometimes inadvertently makes them more horrifying rather than less. Is physical torture always scarier than Mind Rape? Is it scarier to be shot cleanly than to be eaten alive by spiders?

Cast as a Mask: Whenever Zartan had to put on a disguise, he was then voiced by who previously played the person he was disguised as until he was revealed. Michael Bell played him and the French Scientist he impersonated in "Countdown for Zartan," while Neil Ross played both Shipwreck and Zartan-as-Shipwreck for "Once Upon A Joe". The same goes for Baroness, who sometimes would even disguise herself as a male. In "Twenty Questions" she's revealed to have been in disguise as a cameraman for most of the episode... a cameraman who until The Reveal previously had a male voice actor.

Custom Uniform: Half of the Joes have these. Notably, Scarlett's clothes don't resemble any sort of military uniform known to man, presumably for the usual reasons. Similarly extreme male examples include Quick Kick, Bazooka, and Snake Eyes. Could have also been for plausible deniability if G.I. Joe isn't an official branch.

Psychopathic Manchild: The titular villain of the episode "The Gamesmaster". Not only does he capture Flint, Lady Jaye, the Baroness, and Cobra Commander in order to kill them all as part of some twisted game, but he also has toy soldier minions, tends to taunt his captives childishly, and he throws temper tantrums when he doesn't get his way.

 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_3c878b40
comment
Uncleanliness Is Next to Ungodliness: Gnawgahyde from the Dreadnoks. He believes in living off the land, and regards the falseness of civilization as a sign of weakness. Therefore, he refuses to use deodorants or cosmetics of any kind, and will not eat processed food, or wear synthetic fibers. Gnawgahyde was chased out of Africa by his fellow poachers for cheating at cards, smelling bad, and being generally obnoxious.

The Chain of Command
 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_3ea5d33f
comment
The Chain of Command: The G.I.Joe chain of command is unusual in that Duke (a mere First Sergeant) explicitly outranks the likes of Flint (a Warrant Officer) and Ace (a Captain) thanks to his role as field commander. Justified in that the Joes are a combined service unit, with members from all branches of the military. There's still a bit of oddness in the chain of command, as Beach Head (who is fourth in command after General Hawk, Duke and Flint) is actually outranked by the likes of Shipwreck according to their ranks, but Shipwreck isn't in the chain at all. Likewise, Cutter is one of the highest ranking Joes, but is almost never involved with planning of operations unless explicitly requiring naval expertise. Cobra's chain of command is far less clear. Fanon states that the Vipers are a step up from the Cobra troopers, and that the Crimson Guard outrank everybody not part of the high command, but within Cobra's top ranks even Cobra Commander sometimes has to cajole the others into following his plans. Serpentor, in comparison, is a much more autocratic leader thanks to his ability to physically beat obedience into the others. Exploited in "The Most Dangerous Thing In The World" when a Cobra plot promotes three of the Joes to the rank of Colonel. Since they're completely unsuited to such high ranks, Joe morale and effectiveness plummets.

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: In "Raise the Flagg", a small group of Joes and Cobras, while trapped hundreds of feet below the ocean's surface, come up with a plan that allows them to get to the surface... but because they ascended very quickly, once they're up there, they collapse from the bends, spending the epilogue in a decompression chamber.

Bittersweet Ending: Not every episode had a happy conclusion. "Computer Complications" was essentially a tie between G.I. Joe and Cobra (both sides lost a carrier); "Sink the Montana", despite concluding with the Joes foiling Cobra's plot, still had a somewhat depressing ending. And then there's "There's No Place Like Springfield"...

Zartan sort of is a gender-flipped one to Scarlett, what with both being intermediate-level commanders in their teams and masters of disguise hailing from redhead badass families with a militarily unusual preference for archery over riflemanship.

Capital Offensive

comment
Capital Offensive: Cobra does this twice during the course of the series. The first occurred when they tricked the world into thinking that an Alien Invasion was coming, and that San Francisco and Vladivostok were going to be attacked. This diversion caused both the United States and Russia to move the bulk of their militaries towards those locations. Cobra then launched two raids against the White House in Washington, D.C. and the Kremlin in Moscow to seize the valuable military secrets of both nations. The Joes and the Russian Oktober Guard have to work together to stop them. The second was a full-scale invasion of Washington ordered by Serpentor at the end of his 5-part debut arc. However, the other Cobra characters point out to him that while he occupies Washington, the rest of America is still free and in the fight, and both the President and Vice President were away at the time of the attack. This realistically Lampshades how difficult attacking the U.S. mainland really is for conventional militaries. Serpentor should have listened to his subordinates as the Joes lead the retaking of the city in a Curb-Stomp Battle.

Stock Sound Effects: In-universe example: both the Joes and Cobra tended to use the same alarm sounds. Meta example: some weaponry and explosion sounds were similar to those of sci-fi shows and movies. GI Joe sidearms used SFX from the Cylons of Battlestar Galactica (1978). Cobra used the SFX from Disney's Theblack Hole, but only when both weren't using audio from Star Wars.

Kansas City Shuffle: In "The Traitor" 2-parter, Dusty, in exchange for assistance with his mother's medical bills, gives information to Cobra regarding the newly-developed armor treatment. He is convicted of treason after an ambush leaves Duke in a coma and later kidnapped by Cobra. While Flint, Lady Jaye and Shipwreck are surrounded and captured by Cobra to be used as human guinea pigs for the mind-control gas, Dusty enters the laboratory and tampers with the mind-control gas. When Cobra Commander puts Dusty in charge of the executions, he puts his plan into action, freeing them all. Once Cobra is foiled, Duke later reveals that he and the reinstated Dusty invoked this trope in secret to exploit their faulty armor treatment and hinder Cobra, but the plan initially fell through when Duke was rendered unconscious from the ambush.

Body Horror: "Glamour Girls" had Low-Light stop the "Transference Machine" from stealing the youth and beauty of his younger sister, Una, by destroying the linkage to her. The backwash, though, caused the machine to leave Madam Vale, the intended recipient of the stolen beauty, without a face. The reactions of Lady Jaye (horror) and Low-Light (hiding Una from the sight) show how bad it was—and only that we hear Madame Vail bemoaning her loss prevents it from being And I Must Scream.

Predatory Business: In the 80's show, the Red Rocket franchise pops up all over in one episode, even planning to buy out Roadblock's family restaurant (the owners won't sell, of course). Then it turns out that Cobra is involved, and the rockets adorning the buildings are carrying their latest WMDs, the warhead shaped Photon Disintegrators. The Joes stop the plot, and Roadblock's family restaurant becomes "The Joes' Place".

comment
Enemy Mine: The Gamesmaster in his one appearance ("The Gamesmaster"). He kidnapped Flint, Lady Jaye, the Baroness and Cobra Commander. When Destro realizes that a third party, not GI Joe, had kidnapped the Commander and the Baroness, he quickly calls Duke. Duke ends up begrudgingly agreeing. Also, COBRA themselves, in the episode where they tried to start a war between the US and Russia, and the Joes and their Russian counterparts got wise. When Destro sees Cobra Commander has a Synthoid of himself created, he decides to aid the Joes in stopping this plot as a warning to the Commander not to cross him. Destro again allies with the Joes when Cobra Commander attempts to use one of the horrific monsters Destro keeps contained in an attempt to destroy Serpentor. Cobra uses a hypnotic camera to capture women for an evil fashion magnate. Lady Jay and Cover Girl are also captured and when the other Joes try to rescue them, they get caught as well. However, while messing around, the Drednoks use the camera on Zarana. After beating his idiot helpers down, Zartan is outraged when Mindbender says they're going to allow Zarana to be used by the magnate to steal her beauty. Zartan thus frees the Joes to help rescue his sister (although Low Light does punch Zartan in the face and notes it's only Zarana causing Zartan to do this). The DiC series two-part episode "The Greatest Evil" had the Joes and Cobra reluctantly work together to take out the Headman, an alliance that was born from Duke and a Cobra member both learning that the Headman's drugs had harmed someone near and dear to them.

comment
Canon Welding: Supplementary material for the Japanese dub of the cartoon explicitly mentions that the Joe/Cobra conflict really begins in earnest after The Transformers awaken and begin their war. Laser weaponry is explicitly mentioned as being the result of the Transformers' presence, and it also explains some of the more high-tech elements like jetpacks both sides use. It's easy to imagine the Autobots agreeing to share some of their weapons technology with humanity so they can defend themselves against the Decepticons, and even in their own show it was mentioned the Autobots are basically allied with humanity, not explicitly the USA. (That said, this only applied to the Japanese dub, not the original.) The presence of Hector Ramirez is used to explain that the cartoons made by Sunbow (i.e. G.I. Joe, The Transformers, Jem and Inhumanoids) are all part of the same shared universe. In fact, in Inhumanoids one of the Earth Corps members, Sabre Jet, is hinted to be Joe member Ace, given a new code name after he was wounded in battle against the titular Inhumanoids. The fact that Hector Ramirez's actual physical appearance differs between the various shows is glossed over (same thing with Ace/Sabre Jet). The Transformers episode with Hector Ramirez also had a cameo of Daina from the Oktober Guard, the Russian equivalent to the Joe Team, piloting a plane. Season 3 of The Transformers finally confirmed the Shared Universe by having a washed-up Cobra Commander, under the alias "Old Snake", assist a mobster in putting the minds of Autobots into synthetic bodies (based on the synthoid technology previously seen in several Joe episodes). He even lets out the Cobra battlecry at the end of the episode, only to collapse into a coughing fit. Another connection from Transformers season 3 came via Marissa Faireborn, head of the Earth Defense Command. She looks like Lady Jaye a bit, but has Flint's last name. Further implication came via a fake hologram of her father, who looked like an aged Flint (and was even voiced by Bill Ratner). It was finally confirmed by one of the writers years later that she is indeed the daughter of Flint and Lady Jaye.

Artistic License – Military
 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_6eb4e408
comment
Artistic License – Military: How much this is in play varies to a considerable extent between the episodes, but generally speaking, GI Joe evidences considerably relaxed grooming and uniform standards, as well as a remarkably fluid chain of command, among other things. Likewise, both they and Cobra have women in combat roles and treat this as unproblematic, and there seems to be no problem with soldiers coupling up, whereas in real life this is still very controversial today (and was an absolute no-no in the 1980s, when the series was made). Much of this is arguably justified, since GI Joe is a small force of picked men for special tasks, and so not as much subject to the details of ordinary military discipline as the rank-and-file (just as with real special forces). And Cobra, of course, is a private military organization, so they can make their own rules however they like them.

Colour-Coded for Your Convenience: Gunfire from the Joes' weapons was red, and gunfire from Cobra's weapons was blue. (Although in the first miniseries, both sides' shots were simple white streaks.) The Oktober Guard, uniquely, had green blasts. Any other forces (third parties, police, etc.) tended to vary on what color their gunfire was. A parody of this show from Homestar Runner called Cheat Commandos (which cranked the toyetic elements up to eleven) even called the villains Blue Laser.

Put on a Bus: Clutch, Grunt and Steeler ended up staying behind in a parallel universe run by Cobra (in the cartoon). The three were part of the much plainer 1982 lineup, and thus were being written out in favor of the "cooler" new characters. At least they got a send-off in a two-parter episode and not just ignored (poor Zap).

Boss in Mook's Clothing: The Cobra trooper in "Cobra Stops the World". He was still beaten, but put up more of a fight than the named Cobra characters often manage. The BAT in "My Favorite Things". These are supposed to be slow, ponderous and stupid Mecha-Mooks, but this particular one shows both initiative and skill like the Joes themselves do. In "Haul Down the Heavens," a random Cobra Mook spots Snow Job fleeing in a helicopter to Bring Help Back. He races after the helicopter, grabs the landing gear as it takes off, and then manages to knock Snow Job out of the craft (although Snow Job drags the Mook down with him). When the two hit the ground, they spend several seconds wrestling, and the Cobra thug manages to stab Snow Job with a tranquilizer dart before being overpowered, causing Snow Job to pass out not far away.

By contrast, GI Joe defends the whole world against their oppression. Black-and-Gray Morality: Subverted in a few stories, where Cobra has some legitimate complaint about the present-day political or economic system that they use to recruit people or push their agenda, such as crusading against anarchic inner cities or financial corruption. They are still evil, but America is also shown to be less than perfect. Blue-and-Orange Morality: Cobra's plots were sometimes confusing and childish. note In the cartoon anyway.

comment
Cultural Translation: In the UK, the good guys were called Action Force, and the theme tune called them International Heroes instead of Real American Heroes. Over time this slowly changed to "GI Joe, The Action Force" (it was as awkward as it sounds) before eventually just using the GI Joe name. This dates back from the 60's, when Palitoy licensed the original G.I. Joe figure as Action Man. Two decades later, Action Force was launched as an independent extension of the Action Man line. This changed with Hasbro's acquisition of the Palitoy assets, after which the Joes were introduced with European birthplaces. Likewise, the Japanese dub of the Sunbow series (which only lasted 33 episodes) had most of the Joes' nationalities changed to make them an international team rather than having them be U.S.-centric. They also changed the Joe's catchphrase "Yo Joe!" to "Go, G.I. Joe!"

Shared Universe: With most of the other Marvel/Sunbow/Hasbro cartoons that followed it. The Transformers had Daina of the Oktober Guard cameoing in a season 2 episode, while season 3 had an aged Cobra Commander (now known as "Old Snake") appearing, and Marissa Faireborn, head of the Earth Defense Command, was implied to be the daughter of Flint and Lady Jaye (the Quintessons briefly making her hallucinate an aged version of Flint who she addresses as her father). Meanwhile, Inhumanoids, implied that Ace of the Joe Team and Sabre Jet of the Earth Corps were the same person (both were named Brad J. Armbruster, even if they didn't exactly appear or sound the same). And all three shows, plus Jem, were linked via the multiple appearances of Hector Ramirez. Also, the Action Figure File Card for C.O.P.S. member Checkpoint hints that he's a descendant of Beach-Head. G.I. Joe also shared many of the same music tracks with The Transformers in later episodes.

What the Hell Is That Accent?
 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_8829dfa0
comment
What the Hell Is That Accent?: The Baroness speaks with an accent that isn't just obviously fake, but doesn't seem to correspond to any real language. It's basically a blend of American stereotypes of Russian- and German-speaking villains. Destro's accent is (presumably) supposed to be Scottish, but sounds nothing like it. Most of the named Cobra villains have some more or less weird accent, though none as bad as the above. Storm Shadow talks, well, like you would expect of an 80s Hollywood ninja, and the Dreadnoks speak some kind of exaggerated Australian.

Decoy Convoy: one involved the Joes being asked to help transport a virus to a safe spot to destroy it, knowing very well that COBRA will try to capture it. After braving a whole lot of traps, ambushes and other risks, the team assigned to the convoy finds out that they were assigned to the decoy convoy and the virus was transported and disposed in a more covert fashion. They were not okay with the fact that they were not provided this information.

Justified Trope

comment
The G.I.Joe chain of command is unusual in that Duke (a mere First Sergeant) explicitly outranks the likes of Flint (a Warrant Officer) and Ace (a Captain) thanks to his role as field commander. Justified in that the Joes are a combined service unit, with members from all branches of the military. There's still a bit of oddness in the chain of command, as Beach Head (who is fourth in command after General Hawk, Duke and Flint) is actually outranked by the likes of Shipwreck according to their ranks, but Shipwreck isn't in the chain at all. Likewise, Cutter is one of the highest ranking Joes, but is almost never involved with planning of operations unless explicitly requiring naval expertise.

Later, the 3 3/4" figures were sold in the UK and elsewhere as Action Force. This incarnation reimagined Action Force as a European anti-terrorist organisation based in Europe, which sometimes cooperated with GI Joe. Their Big Bad was Baron Ironblood, who led the Red Shadows; when Hasbro took over and began introducing more GI Joe concepts into the line, this meant Baron Ironblood rebranded himself as Cobra Commander. (The Red Shadows later became Canon Immigrants in later continuities, though their exact role tends to vary.)

Longer-Than-Life Sentence: The episode "Cobra's Creatures" ended with Dr. Lucifer incarcerated. While visiting his cell, the Joes joke that he should look them up in the next 200 years, implying that his sentence will last that long. The DiC continuation features the trope in the two-part episode "D-Day at Alcatraz", which begins with Cobra Commander, Destro, Metalhead and several Cobra soldiers being sent to Alcatraz and has the warden mention that they'll all be serving 362-year sentences. The two-parter ends with Cobra Commander, Destro and Metalhead escaping as usual, with the generic Cobra soldiers being the only ones left serving their sentences.

While Lady Jaye is American and pro-democracy, The Baroness is vaguely European and vaguely fascist. Storm Shadow to Snake Eyes, obviously. Zartan sort of is a gender-flipped one to Scarlett, what with both being intermediate-level commanders in their teams and masters of disguise hailing from redhead badass families with a militarily unusual preference for archery over riflemanship. In one episode, they even showed some mutual respect for each other.

Took a Level in Badass: At the beginning of the DIC run, which picks up where the movie left off, Cobra Commander is still a snake, but is restored to human(oid) form by the Baroness and Gnawgahyde. He wrests control of Cobra back from Serpentor, gets revenge by turning Serpentor into an iguana, and then when he goes after the Joes they actually have a hard time defeating him!

Continuity Nod

Continuity Nod: Although most episodes were usually self-contained, occasionally, they did reference events or things that happened earlier. Some examples: In "Computer Complications", Zarana infiltrates the Joe base to help Cobra's plot and falls in love with Mainframe in the process, but obviously, them being on opposite sides means nothing can come of it. Later in "Grey Hairs and Growing Pains", it's revealed Zarana still has some lingering feelings for him, which the Joes are able to use to get her to help them stop Cobra's plan. In "Memories of Mara", Shipwreck falls for the titular character, but they can't be together cause she can't live long outside of water. Cobra was apparently aware of this because when they trap him in a fake city in "There's No Place Like Springfield" his wife is a now restored Mara. In "Glamour Girls", a red-haired character named Satin is shown as a friend of Low-Light's sister. Whether this is the same Satin from the "Pyramid of Darkness" 5-parter is unknown. In "Nightmare Assault", Iceberg goes out to a Drive-In Theater with Mahia, who first appeared in "Iceberg Goes South". Used twice in "Joe's Night Out". The main plot has Cobra holding a nightclub full of patrons (and three Joes) hostage in orbit to get back Dr. Mullaney (the scientist who had been rescued in "There's No Place Like Springfield") and his research on a not-yet-perfected turbine that uses nitrogen from the air as fuel. After everyone is rescued the good doctor worries that Cobra may still be able to finish his work with the research data he took with him, but Mainframe reveals he slipped the computer virus from "Cobrathon" onto his disks. Cue Explosive Instrumentation... The nitrogen engine itself is a nod to "The Greenhouse Effect", although that episode was about fuel developed by a different chemist.

On occasion, even big names like Duke or Flint would be reduced to non-speaking appearances, instead being used to fill out crowds. A couple of notable examples include "The Most Dangerous Thing In The World" (where Duke is seen among the Joes trying to defend Joe HQ during the climax, leading to the logical question of why he isn't taking command from Shipwreck, Lifeline and Dialtone), and "Sink The Montana" (where he's part of the Joe assault force attempting to retake the Montana but isn't involved in planning the operation alongside General Hawk at all).

Cut Lex Luthor a Check: Cobra would have been far more successful by marketing a lot of their inventions. Think of how much money you could make (or charge, if you keep it to yourself) with the weather dominator, just doing "good" things like turning aside hurricanes or bringing rain to drought-plagued regions? How much would the world's billionaires fork over for a turn in the anti-aging steam room?

Off-Model: Joe and Cobra vehicles were often inconsistent in size and even shape over the two Sunbow seasons. Cobra Commander switches between his hooded and helmeted appearances between episodes, though at least one episode depicted him switching between the two (in heavy shadow), so it's more a personal (read: animator's) choice. Very roughly, he wears his helmet in the field, and his hood while in a base. One infamous layering error from "Primordial Plot" results in a T-Rex and Triceratops phasing through a wall.

Ink-Suit Actor: Sgt. Slaughter played his cartoon version — and his "Real American Hero" angle carried over into the WWF for a while. Also interesting to note as he's credited by his birth name (Bob Remus) throughout the cartoon run, but credited as Sgt. Slaughter (as himself) in the movie opening credits.

Demoted to Extra
 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_b8e3f20a
comment
Demoted to Extra: Many Joes had reduced appearances and importance after their toys left the aisles. Among the hardest hit was Stalker, who went from being prominently featured in the intro of the first mini-series, to only being featured in an handful of episodes of the first regular season (most of them being non-speaking appearances in crowd shots), to not appearing at all in the second. On occasion, even big names like Duke or Flint would be reduced to non-speaking appearances, instead being used to fill out crowds. A couple of notable examples include "The Most Dangerous Thing In The World" (where Duke is seen among the Joes trying to defend Joe HQ during the climax, leading to the logical question of why he isn't taking command from Shipwreck, Lifeline and Dialtone), and "Sink The Montana" (where he's part of the Joe assault force attempting to retake the Montana but isn't involved in planning the operation alongside General Hawk at all).

Market-Based Title
 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_b9c673a6
comment
Market-Based Title: Rather more extensive than usual At a basic level, the cartoon's tagline ("A Real American Hero") was changed to "The International Hero" outside America. In the UK, the original 12" figures were renamed Action Man, and eventually gained their own, separate canon. Later, the 3 3/4" figures were sold in the UK and elsewhere as Action Force. This incarnation reimagined Action Force as a European anti-terrorist organisation based in Europe, which sometimes cooperated with GI Joe. Their Big Bad was Baron Ironblood, who led the Red Shadows; when Hasbro took over and began introducing more GI Joe concepts into the line, this meant Baron Ironblood rebranded himself as Cobra Commander. (The Red Shadows later became Canon Immigrants in later continuities, though their exact role tends to vary.)

Cool Boat: The ridiculously gigantic USS Flagg built into a seven-and-a-half-foot long, three foot tall aircraft carrier, making it the largest playset in the line (though not the most expensive) and one of the biggest toy playsets ever released. Many futile notes to Santa were written requesting it.

 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_bce728ca
comment
Mistreatment-Induced Betrayal: Raven, a loyal Strato-Viper, served Cobra with daring and passion because she believed in their cause and knew her comrades would never let her down. Unfortunately, Doctor Mindbender had no use for such quaint notions of military honor or ésprit de corps, and unceremoniously turned on her as soon as it was the least bit practical in the short term. As a result, she quit Cobra altogether, and it was even hinted that she would apply for GI Joe service instead.

Lighter and Softer: Than Larry Hama's comic book, which despite some comedy elements, depicted more of the consequences of war. Besides, later animated series, comic books and live action films depict the Joes as trained and merciless killers - with some characters only heroes because of the side they're on - whereas except for some Early-Installment Weirdness the term "kill count" is all but alien in the original series. Ironically, that didn't stop the show from being lambasted by moral guardians of the day; they didn't know that someday Scarlett would start aiming for the eyes.

Screw This, I'm Outta Here: In the episode where a street gang works for Cobra, one of them runs off to save her little brother from a burning building. One of the Dreadnoks tries to stop her, reminding her of her job. But she doesn't care anymore and runs, with Scarlet (who she's been antagonistic towards) helping her. The other gang members (who laughed at her little brother for trying to join in) decide to leave as well.

Contrived Coincidence: In "The Viper Is Coming", the Joes receive frequent phone calls about the mysterious Viper meeting them, dropping hints of his arrival. Suspecting a Cobra agent, they manage to foil every Cobra plan and demolish a few secret bases. It turns out to be this trope, frustrating both sides, and the "Viper" is just an old man coming to "vipe the vindows". The PSAs that ran at the end of some episodes makes one think: Why is it that a GI Joe always happened to be close by when a kid was about to do something dangerous, wrong, or just plain stupid?

Art Evolution: Some Sunbow episode artnote starting with episode "The Wrong Stuff" was improved due to being made at the same time as the animated movie. The DiC series had a more vibrant and slightly more stylized art style than the Sunbow series. Many characters were also given somewhat drastic redesigns. Storm Shadow, Snake Eyes, and General Hawk are among the characters most notably different from how they appeared in the Sunbow series.

The first occurred when they tricked the world into thinking that an Alien Invasion was coming, and that San Francisco and Vladivostok were going to be attacked. This diversion caused both the United States and Russia to move the bulk of their militaries towards those locations. Cobra then launched two raids against the White House in Washington, D.C. and the Kremlin in Moscow to seize the valuable military secrets of both nations. The Joes and the Russian Oktober Guard have to work together to stop them.

Suspiciously Similar Substitute: Vehicular equivalent of this trope. Some vehicles on both sides were based on real ones at the time, like G.I. Joe's M.O.B.A.T., based on the MBT-70, a prototype which never saw action in real-life. Their Skystriker was also clearly the now retired F-14 Tomcat, with a different paintjob. Cobra's Rattler was less of one, only having a passing resemblance to the A-10 Thunderbolt/Warthog.

Heel–Face Return
 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_f9892096
comment
Heel–Face Return: Storm Shadow apparently reformed at some point between the Sunbow and DIC series, as the latter inexplicably depicted him as one of the Joes and had an episode where the plot revolved around him appearing to return to Cobra.

The Remnant
 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_f9c17447
comment
The Remnant: "The Great Alaskan Land Rush" features a Hidden Elf Village of Alaskan cossacks, descended from the crew of a ship that got lost when Russia owned Alaska and later decided to remain separate from the outside world. They initially take the Joes prisoner in the name of the long-dead Tsar Alexander II, but ultimately work with them to thwart Cobra. In "Raise the Flagg", a Cobra cook has spent months trapped in the eponymous sunken ship, managing to recycle air and grow food with the help of several robotic soldiers. He believes that he is the last survivor of Cobra and is determined to keep the organization alive. This goes out the window when he learns that 1) Cobra still exists at the same strength as before and 2) they never sent any rescue parties to see if there was anyone left alive on the Flagg (only diving down to the wreck for an unrelated salvage job). His dedication to preserving and following Cobra rapidly vanishes.

Washington D.C. Invasion
 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_fa5699d9
comment
The second was a full-scale invasion of Washington ordered by Serpentor at the end of his 5-part debut arc. However, the other Cobra characters point out to him that while he occupies Washington, the rest of America is still free and in the fight, and both the President and Vice President were away at the time of the attack. This realistically Lampshades how difficult attacking the U.S. mainland really is for conventional militaries. Serpentor should have listened to his subordinates as the Joes lead the retaking of the city in a Curb-Stomp Battle.

Discovering Your Own Dead Body
 G.I. Joe: A Real American Hero / int_fbe24ca5
comment
Discovering Your Own Dead Body: In the two-part episode "Worlds Without End", a few members of the team found themselves in an Alternate Universe where the world was taken over by Cobra. Grunt and Steeler (who weren't with the group that discovered the alternate dimension) stumble upon the skeletons of three Joes. They're shocked to discover one of them is Clutch (who's also with the group) while the other two are themselves.

comment
Canon Immigrant: Certain characters were originally created for the comics and cartoons before they were introduced to the toyline such as the Baroness, General Flagg and the Oktober Guard. The minor character Sparks from the Sunbow series was made a convention-exclusive toy in 2007. Night Creeper Leader was created for the first season of the DIC series before being exported to the toyline and comic three years later (albeit with a drastically different appearance).

comment
Master of Disguise: Zartan and the Baroness are both very good at impersonating people. Lady Jaye and Scarlett are also pretty good at it. And Flint, sometimes. Major Bludd, of all people, pulled off a very convincing disguise in one early story, complete with a good voice impression.
