** Alpine swinging on a rope to knock some B.A.T's from atop Lady Liberty, and then using his grapple gun to hook onto a Firebat and punch out the cockpit, grappling onto a stolen Cobra flight pod piloted by Snake Eyes.

* The opening to the movie, with practically '''every''' Joe member from the series fighting Cobra over the Statue of Liberty.

-->'''Serpentor:''' "[[BadassBoast None may challenge Serpentor!]] ''[[BattleCry This, I command!]]''"

* Cobra Commander saving [[spoiler:Falcon]] from another snake while being a snake himself.

G.I. Joe is there!'''''

** A crowning moment for series storyboard artist Larry Houston, who designed the whole three minute sequence. His composition and theming, in combination with the new rendition of the G.I. Joe theme song, makes this into one of the most memorable animated movie introductions of its type. it spends a solid minute building up the threat of Cobra and making it seem like a DarkestHour situation, only for the lyrics to take a turn for the bold and inspirational as the song answers its own question.

'''''G.I. JOE! G.I. Joe is there!'''''

** A crowning moment for series storyboard artist Larry Houston, who designed the whole three minute sequence.

* Counts as heartwarming. When the ambushed Joes wake up and return the favor, Wet-Suit gets hit in the jaw, only for Leatherneck, of all Joes, to floor the Royal Guardsman responsible one second later.

** Duke blasting Major Bludd from the sky, and with a cry of "Yo Joe." Leading dozens of jetpack wearing Joes into combat while Sky Hawks rise to meet Cobra forces.

-->'''Serpentor:''' "[[BadassBoast None may challenge Serpentor!]] ''[[BattleCry This, I command!]]''"

** Roadblock gets a brief but amusingly awesome scene by being the stealthiest jetpack-wearing heavy-machine-gunner ever, smugly grinning as he drops down behind two Cobra troopers, grabs them by the heads, and [[BringTheirHeadsTogether bashes them together]]. Way to [[FailedASpotCheck fail your spot check,]] Cobras.

-->"This is for Gung-Ho, Alpine, and Bazooka!" (Lift and slam) "This is for Falcon!" (Falling elbow slam) "This is for me!" (Another elbow slam) "This is for Duke!" (Third elbow slam) "[[PatrioticFervor AND THIS IS FOR THE U.S. OF A.!!!]]", (Kirk style double fist) "You make me sick" (Throws him into abyss of oblivion as the finisher).

** Not to mention taking out a [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever giant mantis]] by hitting it in the face by swinging a rifle at it like a baseball bat because it misfired.
