I removed the following "Fun Facts" from the article:

  • If you zoom in on Gunhaver's binoculars, you can see the Blue Lazor tank.
  • PRiCE STYLE's capitilasation could be a reference to the album SMiLE by Brian Wilson.
    • More eerie weirdness: They were both released on the same day.
  • The voice of Crackotage is done in the style of Wordsworth from the 80's cartoon Heathcliff (and the Catallac Cats), whose voice was done by Stanley Jones. Wordsworth was a rhyming cat that also had headphones on but unlike Crackotage, Wordsworth rollerskated.
    • Actually, since Cheat Commandos is a pretty direct parody of the G.I. Joe cartoon, Crackotage is a parody of the G.I. Joe character Roadblock, who also spoke in rhymes.
  • The grocery store "muzak" is a different version of the main Cheat Commandos theme. Some cartoons such as Inspector Gadget would also have all the background music as a rehashing of the main theme as well.
  • The grocery store "muzak" also sounds like the Nook 'n' Go music from Animal Crossing.
  • Reynold's voice is similar to that of Brains from the 60's TV series Thunderbirds.
  • Reynolds' voice seems to be a mix between Dilbert and Drew Carey, although the scene where Reynolds trys on the backpack might have been inspired by the scene when Louis Tully (Rick Moranis) in Ghostbusters II, puts on the proton pack and wants to be a ghostbuster.

Not only are several conversational, but a few contradict each other. And others are just downright silly. -- Tom 18:37, 28 Sep 2004 (MST)
