History Trivia / Inhumanoids

* The [[https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kvsAfP0eynmpR99egbIZbckjjkJzwtiL/view first pitch]] for the series, the ''Force of Light'' from Marvel's Tom [=DeFalco=], was much different. The idea here was that meteors would begin to bombard Earth (here TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture) and the UN contacted Dr. Charles Gibson for help; on his advice, massive "light shields" are constructed around portions of Earth. They work, but then Gibson's geologist friend, Dr. Jason Bright, finds some of the shields have been sabotaged. While space aliens are initially suspected, he and Gibson's daughter Sandra instead discover the meteors have caused mutated beings dubbed "mutores" to arise; living BeneathTheEarth, they're determined to eliminate mankind and keep the meteors coming. Consequently, Bright and several allies construct "light helmets" so they can battle the Mutores themselves. Not much of this draft survived into the final product, with the name "Mutores" being reassigned to the creatures that battle and sealed the Inhumanoids away in the past, while Sandra Gibson evolved into Sandra Shore.

* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Likely tying in with the above situation, the failed Hasbro experiment ''[[Trivia/Revolution2016 Unit:E]]'' reimagined the Inhumanoids as ''Primordia'', with different designs and potential to be a ChaoticNeutral; it's also suggested in story that they were what happens when you cross the fairies (as in, ''[[TabletopGame/CandyLand Princess Lolly]]'', for real).

** Interestingly, IDW later published a new comic that was confirmed to take place in the defunct ComicBook/HasbroComicUniverse -- specifically, a new story starring the Dire Wraiths. They go up against the human cast of ''Inhumanoids'', albeit with slightly tweaked, copyright friendly names (such as Hank Armstrong instead of Herc). A few of said humans even make oblique references to facing "inhuman monsters from beneath the Earth". Whether this means the Inhumanoids really do -- or did -- exist in this universe in some form, or is merely another EasterEgg, remains to be seen.

* PlayingAgainstType: Dr. Derek Bright, mechanical master and general badass, is voiced by Richard Sanders- '''[[Series/WKRPInCincinnati Les Nessman]]'''.
* ScrewedByTheLawyers: [[WordOfGod Per Aubrey Sitterson]], the Inhumanoids were supposed to appear in ''ComicBook/GIJoe2016'' (and therefore the ComicBook/HasbroComicUniverse), but when they sent in the script to Creator/{{Hasbro}}, it transpired that Hasbro had lost the rights, therefore any ''Inhumanoids'' characters couldn't be used, forcing Sitterson to rewrite the characters into the "Fatal Fluffies" (enemies from the 80s' ''Joe'' cartoon).

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Unlike its fellow Sunbow shows such as ''WesternAnimation/TheTransformers'', ''WesternAnimation/GIJoeARealAmericanHero'', and ''WesternAnimation/{{Jem}}'', this show never got rereleased on DVD by Creator/ShoutFactory. There ''were'' previous DVD releases by Rhino Entertainment, but those only covered nine of the thirteen episodes and have since gone out of print.
