* NoEnding: [[spoiler: The series ends without the core story of Action Man's former past life being resolved.]]
Added DiffLines:
* ScrewedByTheNetwork: The series never aired on terrestrial UK television (The UK being the largest sales for the Toyline) due to laws over toy advertisement. (Toys may be made from existing shows, but shows may not be aired if they are based on existing toys). Either Hasbro wasn't aware or forgot, meaning the series was canceled due to poor viewings and sales.

[[quoteright:325:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/actionman_complete_mce.png]]
In 1995, an animated ''Franchise/ActionMan'' series with live-action segments was released by Creator/DiC[[note]]It wouldn't be the first time they've done [[Series/TheSuperMarioBrosSuperShow such a show]].[[/note]] where Action Man was part of a Global Defense team called Action Force (including Knuck, Natalie, Jock, and their dog Raid) but has complete amnesia and only tends to have minor flashes of memory at various times. The Action Force is often called upon to deal with the threat of a paramilitary organization lead by Dr. X.
----
!!Tropes associated with the 1995 cartoon series include:
* AllThereInTheManual: Action Man's lost past was detailed in the series bible. [[http://www.bloodforthebaron.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=40&t=1564&start=0 One page is available here.]]
* TheDragon: Ursula.
* EveryEpisodeEnding: Each episode ends with Action Man reflecting about the missing memory he has recovered during that episode.
* GeniusCripple: Jock/Jacques.
* LandmineGoesClick: One character steps on a pressure mine. To escape, he unties his boot and does an unnecessarily impressive backflip as the mine goes off.
* LargeHam: Dr. X.
* MadScientist: Professor Gangrene.
* MorallyAmbiguousDoctorate: Dr. X is of the "evil" variety.
* QuestForIdentity: The Action Man has no memories of his past life. The now-notorious DVD ''Action Man:Past Performance'' indicates this.
* SpellMyNameWithAnS: Jock or Jacques? The latter pronunciation is particularly valid, on the assumption that the name is French (plus the fact that the guy's voice actor used a French accent).
