editIt'd be nice to have a screenshot or something. If I found one online, what would the copyright ramifications be of posting it? uriah923(talk) 02:33, 19 December 2005 (UTC)
Ninja Battles?
editThere was another CGI cartoon called Ninja Battles that came out after Valor VS Venom, yet I don't see it here. Evan1975 19:08, 9 September 2006 (UTC)
Animated ads.
editThis article doesn't mention the animated ads that Sunbow produced for the comics and toyline that preceded the series. I think they at least deserve a mention, since they're what inspired the series in the first place and later ads featured concepts and designs from the unproduced third season of the Sunbow series.

Aired in Japan as...?
editWhy is that mentioned so prominently in the first sentence? Why should the Japanese title take any precedence over other languages it was presumably dubbed with? DPr77 06:01, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
- Agreed. I'm going to be bold, and remove it. Also the mention of Japan as a country of origin in the infobox. Sunbow was an American company, and Hasbro is an American company. This is not a Japanese show in the least. oknazevad (talk) 17:16, 1 February 2009 (UTC)
- They did farmed out some of the animation to Toei, but it was very common practice for American production companies to outsource their animation Japanese or Korean studios. GI Joe is otherwise American-produced. Jonny2x4 (talk) 17:48, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
Censorship
editThe title of this section should be changed since it was not actually censorship. Censorship only happens when a party deletes parts of something that they see as not acceptable. Since the show was originally written without the consequences of violence in the show, no censorship took place. The title should say the the show is unrealistic, not censorship 71.227.91.156 19:35, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
Suspension of Disbelief
editThis section should be removed as it is redundant. It is already stated that the show is fiction and therefore it is inherent that there be a suspension of disbelief. The author of this section seems concerned about the portrayl of violence which is another issue that could be covered in an entry on animated programs for children in general. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.217.107.242 (talk) 16:21, 9 November 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:GiJoe TV-Title1985.jpg
editImage:GiJoe TV-Title1985.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Release dates
editIMDb shows the series starting two years later than Wikipedia, giving release dates for each specific episode: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0086719/episodes?season=1 Alex McNeil's Total Television, while not great on animated series, also says the show started in 1985. --Scottandrewhutchins (talk) 14:53, 11 October 2020 (UTC)
See List_of_G.I._Joe:_A_Real_American_Hero_episodes. One miniseries in 1983, a second in 1984, and the first full season in 1985. Dimadick (talk) 18:18, 12 October 2020 (UTC)
