Line 44:
* [[Communications Officer]]: Link Static serves this role in the Commando Elite.
* [[Conservation of Ninjitsu]]: In the finale, an {{spoiler|entire store line of Commandos}} are defeated by half a dozen Gorgonites with no casualties; the only part with any suspense is the showdown with (one) Chip Hazard.
* [[Cut Lex Luthor a Check]]: It's implied in the ending that the CEO of GloboTech plans to sell the Commando Elites to the military as essentially mercenaries against [[The Cartel|The Cartels]]s .
* [[The Determinator]]: A villainous example, no matter ''what'' you throw at Chip Hazard, he's very likely going to come back.
* [[Disney Death]]: See the ''[[WALL-E]]'' example. {{spoiler|After Alan sets off an EMP to take out the Commando Elite, he finds Archer lying in the yard, inanimate.}}
Line 85:
* [[Gonk]]: MAJOR points for many of the Commando Elite and Gorgonites. Best examples are [[The Brute|Nick Nitro]] and [[The Brute|Brick Bazooka]] with their [[Slasher Smile|giant]], [[Technically a Smile|ever showing mouths of teeth]] and Scratch-It with her own chompers and strange looks.
* [[Heroic Build]]: Somewhat inverted, The Commando Elite are made out to have muscular, almost [[G.I. Joe]]-esque designs, and they're the villains of the film.
* [[Humans Are Bastardsthe Real Monsters]]: The Commandos are all human soldiers (for a dash of [[Armies Are Evil]] as well), while the good ones are nonhumans. The fact that the peaceful Gorgonites were designed as aliens from the start seems to indicate that Irwin at least holds this opinion.
** Then again the two lines (Commando and Gorgonite) were not originally intended to be used together, adding a in universe case of [[Executive Meddling]] to the mix.
* [[Improvised Weapon]]: The Commando Elite are experts at this. Among the household implements they convert into weaponry are a toaster that fires flaming CDs, a tennis-ball launcher firing kerosene-soaked balls, and a catapult made from a mousetrap and a spoon.
