History WesternAnimation / Inhumanoids

* GreenRocks: Glavacite.

* UngratefulBastard: Blackthorne cries out for the Earth Corps to save him from Tendril in one episode. When they do, he shouts, "Thanks, SUCKERS!"

* OnceAMan: Herman Manglar dies horribly, and is brought back as the hideous undead monstrosity Nightcrawler. He's [[SincerityMode delighted]] with his new condition.
--> D'Compose: It is ''hideous!''
--> Nightcrawler: And I trust you will make me even more so.

** At the end of the series, he drinks a solution that [[ItGotWorse removes his weakness to sunlight.]]

* BodyHorror: And how! Just one example: [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Ge-s4AnuLs DECOMPOSE!]] 6:37 into the video. "He's turned her into a nightmare!" indeed.
** [[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jDKyL6y7FZ8 Just the "good" part]]

** Metlar, Tendril, and D-Compose qualify too, with the added bonus of the NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast!

* NamesToRunAwayFromReallyFast: Who the Hell names their kid "Blackthorne?"

* SharedUniverse: Hector Ramirez, a NoCelebritiesWereHarmed version of Geraldo Rivera, is the subtle link between this, ''GIJoe'', ''{{Transformers}}'', and ''{{Jem}}''.

* StandardFemaleGrabArea: Averted. Sandra Shore is grabbed by her brother's security goons and manages to fight them off even after one of them has made contact with her forearm.

* WeaksauceWeakness: D'Compose, badass human-corrupting [[NinjaPirateRobotZombie zombie dinosaur man]] is vulnerable to two things: sunlight and ''tree sap.''

* GreenRocks: Glavacite
* HeyItsThatVoice: Chris Latta as D'Compose. He was also recognized for other Hasbro villains such as [[GIJoe Cobra Commander]] and [[{{Transformers}} Starscream]].

* IntercontinuityCrossover: With all those related cartoons in {{the eighties}}, like ''GIJoe'' and ''{{Transformers}}'', with sharing Hector Ramirez.

* MichaelBell: The voice of Auger.

** Obviously they get re-absorbed by the main Tendril or they die offscreen like uprooted plants. In the Marvel Comics, Metlar tells Tendril that his clones will no longer be necessary, and then Tendril causes them to decay away.
* WhenTreesAttack: The Redwoods are senitent trees that give assistance to the heroes every so often.

The show in its day had a lot of FamilyUnfriendlyViolence and remains a great source of HighOctaneNightmareFuel. More importantly, it was an unusual kids' show for its use of good subplots, strong pacing and suspense.

* GeniusBonus: The three Inhumanoids represent all three of the scientific "kingdoms", and these three kingdoms arguably help define the Inhumanoids' respective roles.
-->'''Mineral:''' Metlar. Since the planet itself is mostly made of various mineral substances, it makes sense that he's the leader.
-->'''Animal:''' D'Compose. Quite a few animal species are at least somewhat intelligent, so it makes sense that he's intelligent as well, making him Metlar's Dragon.
-->'''Vegetable:''' Tendril. No plant species are known to have any intelligence as we understand it. In fact, the term "vegetable" is often used to describe a person whose higher brain functions have stopped. It wouldn't make sense for Tendril ''not'' to be a Brute.

* WhatDoYouMeanItsForKids: It is, despite being violent and dark.
** Particularly any episode focused on D'Compose's signature touch of undeath.

* IAmNotShazam

The main story focuses on a group of scientists called the Earth Corps. An enormous monster, called D-Compose, is discovered encased in amber in the Big Sur. By taking him out, they don't realize that they have unleashed evil on their world. Following that, many more discoveries of grotesque monsters happen. Tendril and D'Compose are two of those {{eldritch abomination}}s. With the help of The Redwoods, they try to put down the monsters again.

* YourSizeMayVary: The best flaw this show is known for is the size of the giant monsters changing between episodes or even frames. One episode they look about 20-30 feet tall and can fit indoors, in another Metler is just as tall as the Statue of Liberty.
