Line 552:
* Used once in ''[[Recess]]'' when Gretchen wins a NASA contest because of her essay, and thinks she's going to be going on the space shuttle. This comes to T.J.'s attention, whose life-long dream is to go on one of those, so he puts her through "training". One part has her having to swing from a rope attached to the top of the swing set while a group of other kids throw dodgeballs at her, and she starts fooling around before they do, prompting T.J. to say this:
{{quote|'''T.J.:''' Gretchen! You're an astronaut, not a cartoon character!}}
* ''[[Transformers Generation 1]]'' has a couple of episodes with scenes that seem to make a reference to this being a [[Market-Based Title]] where the characters are representations of toys. In one episode, several members of the cast wind up in a child's bedroom on an alien planet with a technology level similar to ours, but where the inhabitants are much larger; thus they are the size of the child's other toys. In another episode, Optimus Prime needs to load a bomb into a gun in order to dispose of it, with Megatron's alternate form being the ideal weapon, but Megatron is injured and cannot transform; Prime does so ''manually'', much like one would with a Transformers action figure.
