* SmokeShield: The Megaforce vehicles have the capacity to toss out smoke, which they use at the climactic battle to confuse the tank blockade. For some reason, the designers of the Megafighter motorcycles thought it was a good idea to place the smoke projectors somewhere on the bike's handle bar, meaning that when the smoke starts blowing out the first person it affects is the bike's own driver, who gets all of it right to the face.

* ThePreciousPreciousCar: In payback for him stranding them on the wrong side of the border, Megaforce blows up Byrne-White's beloved helicopter.
* SillyRabbitCynicismIsForLosers: The first time that [[GoKartingWithBowser Hunter and Guerrera meet to talk things mid-mission]], Guerrera talks about how things have gone more crap-sack in TheEighties and he's pretty much just fighting for the strongest side. During the final battle, wherein everybody in the Megaforce assault team is racing to get on the evac plane, Hunter takes some time to knock on Guerrera's tank hatch Bugs Bunny-style and tell him when he opens it:
-->'''Hunter''': (with big grin) Oh, I just wanted to tell you that good guys ''can'' win. Even in TheEighties!
-->'''Hunter''': (with big grin) Oh, I just wanted to tell you that good guys ''can'' win. Even in TheEighties!
