History WesternAnimation / GIJoeRenegades

* ZettaiRyouiki: Jinx sports this.

* PunnyName: The "M.A.S.S. Transit Device", [[GIJoe get it?]]

It now has a [[{{Characters/GIJoeRenegades}} character sheet]].

* {{Expy}}: Not necessarily for past ''GIJoe'' characters, but for ''Series/TheATeam''. Roadblock shares B.A.'s role as the MrFixit and on occasion, the ScaryBlackMan (he's usually a GentleGiant), while Flint and Lady Jaye fill the roles of Colonel Lynch and Captain Sosa respectively. And Dr. Mindbender is a lot like [[WesternAnimation/TransformersAnimated The Headmaster]], minus the leetspeak. Tunnel Rat is a human [[WesternAnimation/BeastWars Rat Trap.]]

* HourglassPlot: Snake Eyes and Storm Shadow share one. After Snake Eyes is accused of poisoning Hard Master, Snake Eyes is forced to flee the Arashikage and live as a ronin which sets him on the path of joining the Joes. Meanwhile, Storm Shadow becomes de facto leader of the clan with his uncle's death. Towards the end of the series, Storm Shadow realizes that he was indirectly responsible for Hard Master's death and exiles himself from the clan, while Snake Eyes's is absolved.

* ThreeDEffectsTwoDCartoon: The Bio-Vipers and some vehicle scenes occasionally drift into being computer generated in an otherwise 2D-animated series. Ripcord's Bio-Viper form and the Sewer Viper from "The Anomaly" are also noticeable.

* ConspicuousCG: The Bio-Vipers and some vehicle scenes occasionally drift into being computer generated in an otherwise 2D-animated series. Ripcord's Bio-Viper form and the Sewer Viper from "The Anomaly" are the most notable offenders.

* RoleReprisal: Creator/CharlieAdler reprises his role as Cobra Commander from ''WesternAnimation/GIJoeResolute''. However, this is the only role he reprised (Gung-Ho doesn't appear and Hard Master, Flint, and Stalker had different voice actors).

** "Shipwrecked": Hector Delgado (Shipwreck), [[CaptainObvious of course]], but he also has a poster of Courtney Kreiger (Covergirl).

* TheManIsStickingItToTheMan: A borderline version, but the writers of a Hasbro property poking fun at corporate public relations in the first thirty seconds or so of the first episode might be a bit of this--Hasbro isn't nearly the size of, say, Halliburton (whose commercials would be in the category mocked), but it's still the kind of multinational MegaCorp that outsources manufacturing to Chinese companies that pay minimum wage...''Chinese'' minimum wage, even.

* FiveManBand
** Also FiveTokenBand.

* NeverSayDie: Averted [[spoiler:with Ripcord's [[NeverFoundTheBody APPARENT]] death in the first episode, as well as the traitorous major]]...although they still haven't ''said'' "die" yet.
** They're also allowing for at least discussion of some rather visceral ideas, such as [[spoiler:battlefield tracheotomies, though that was averted by Tunnel Rat's natural 20 on a Survival check to find a plant to treat Scarlett's allergic reaction. [[LordOfTheRings Aragorn]] would be proud.]]

* BloodlessCarnage: There is some violence in this series, but no blood.

* ArmorIsUseless: Averted. Scarlet is shown putting it on in the first ep and later survives a hit because it was under her coat.

* AbledInTheAdaptation:
** Most versions of ''Franchise/GIJoe''[='=]s General Hawk has the use of both eyes. In ''Renegades'', [[ComicBookMoviesDontUseCodenames General Abernathy]] is shown wearing an eyepatch over his right eye, suggesting at the least that he's lost the vision in it.
** As part of [[NonUniformUniform the rather lax dress code]] of [[WesternAnimation/GIJoeARealAmericanHero the original team]], Airtight wore a hazmat suit to protect himself. In ''Renegades'', he's infected with an infectous disease by Cobra and wear the suit to protect ''others'' from his condition.

** She eventually does discover an approach that works, in a CrowningMomentOfFunny at her own expense.

* AdaptationalBadass: As is the trend, Cobra Commander is pretty far removed from the screechy and ineffectual BigBad of the 80's show. He is never caught off guard and when he vows vengence for a defeat he MEANS it.

** As part of [[NonUniformUniform the rather lax dress code]], Airtight wore a hazmat suit to protect himself. In ''Renegades'', he's infected with an infectous disease by Cobra and wear the suit to protect ''others'' from his condition.

* AChildShallLeadThem: [[spoiler: When Jinx returns to the Arashikage clan.]]

* CoolCar: Major Bludd's ''MadMax'' inspired ride and the Joe's commandeered van, the Coyote. Both also count as a WeaponizedCar.

** In "Prodigal", Cobra Commander dons a full, featureless faceplate like many Cobra Commanders before him have worn. Prior to that, his look is based more on "the Doctor" version of the character from the first live action film.
