* Kiryuu Michiru and Kiryuu Kaoru of ''[[Futari wa Pretty Cure Splash Star]]'' are the [[Dark Magical Girl]] [[Evil Counterpart|Evil Counterparts]] of Saki and Mai, the original owners of the [[Frills of Justice]], and eventually part of the [[Nakama]]. Despite other non-Cure allies [[Futari wa Pretty Cure|Shiny Luminous]] and [[Yes! Pretty Cure 5|Milky Rose]] getting ''tons'' of merchandise and appearing prominently in ads, Michiru and Kaoru may as well not exist to the toy companies and marketing department.
* While introducing most of the [[Loads and Loads of Characters]] in the series, the ''[[Baccano!]]!'' [[Title Sequence]] deliberately leaves everyone's favorite [[Ax Crazy]] [[Psycho for Hire]], Claire Stanfield, unmentioned. {{spoiler|Not to say that he doesn't a make a visual appearance in it -- just look for the redheaded conductor.}}
** The same thing happens in the [[Post Episode Trailer]] of episode 8. Episode nine is titled "Claire Stanfield Successfully Completes the Mission", but most of the clips in the trailer focus on Rachel, which helps to hide Claire's identity again. {{spoiler|And once again, he does make a small appearance in the trailer -- his is the face shown right at the start of it covered in shadows and blood. Yeah, he's like that.}}
*** The focus on Rachel becomes another bit of [[Fridge Brilliance]] when you realize that the withholding of Rachel's name up to that point combined with {{spoiler|Claire's [[Gender Blender Name]]}} make it easy for new viewers to assume that Rachel ''is'' the Claire in the episode title.
Line 84:
* ''[[Blades of Glory]]'' tended to overlook the Van Waldenbergs in their advertisements. This was despite them being the main villains and [[Love Interest]] of the movie and all three being played by relatively well-known and funny actors.
** In an even stranger case, some TV and online ads left out Jon Heder despite being the film's second billed actor.
* Brian Cox in ''[[RedRED (film)]]''. He didn't appear in any of the trailers or posters but plays a very large and significant role in the movie.
** Especially since he also fits the bill (i.e. Retired Extremely Dangerous), even though he's not actually retired.
* [[Jack Nicholson]] had a prominent role in ''[[Broadcast News]]'', but he didn't want to be credited because he didn't want to divert the attention from the eventual Academy Award nominated trio of [[Holly Hunter]], [[William Hurt]] and [[Albert Brooks]].
