Line 10:
{{tropelist}}
* [[Actually a Doombot]]: {{spoiler|Ming at the end of the first season, as the real Ming flees.}}
* [[
* [[Amazon Brigade]]: Princess Aura had an elite guard of female warriors under her command known as the [[Witch Species|Witch-Women]].
* [[Apparently Human Merfolk]]: The people of Corallia, who are green but otherwise look human. As opposed to Ming's grotesque gill-men.
* [[Back for the Finale]]: The first season climaxes with almost all the allies Flash has made through the course of the series gathering together for one big attack against Ming.
* [[Beast Man]]: The Beast Men.
* [[Big Door]]: The Beast Men's drawbridge that takes up most of a cliffside.
Line 23:
* [[Heavyworlder]]: It's occasionally mentioned that Mongo is smaller than Earth, so Earthlings have above-normal strength there.
* [[Kaiju]]: Anywhere and everywhere. Notable ones include the two-headed {{spoiler|blind}} Tesak, and Azura's giant energy caterpillar Voltana.
* [[Killer Rabbit]]: Squirrelons--killer flying squirrels who attack in swarms, and whose venom causes madness.
* [[Kirk Summation]]: Flash gives one of these early on to Barin and Thun because he's sick of their racial bickering, and says the only reason a tyrant like Ming is able to hang onto power is that the peoples of Mongo are busy fighting each other instead of uniting against him. Thun comes to agree with him pretty quickly, but Barin takes a couple more episodes to convince.
* [[Lizard Folk]]: The Lizard Women. There are Lizard ''Men,'' too, they just don't show up as often. Also the reptillian bounty hunter from the second season.
Line 32:
* [[Redshirt Army]]: Hawkmen.
* [[Reptiles Are Abhorrent]]: Well, the Lizard Women may not be very ''nice'', but one [[Cute Monster Girl|wouldn't exactly]] call them ''[[Non-Mammal Mammaries|abhorrent]]''.
* [[Retro Rocket]]: Most of the Mongonian rocketships are streamlined to look a little more like aircraft, but Zarkov's rocketship is a classic cylindrical [[Retro Rocket]].
* [[Robot Master]]: Dr. Tav.
* [[Slave Revolt]]: Flash ends up leading a ''lot'' of slave revolts. Mostly because the bad guys keep, well, [[Why Don't You Just Shoot Him?|trying to enslave him]].
