Per TRS, Now Which One Was That Voice was moved to Trivia and renamed to Unspecified Role Credit. Moved to Uncredited Role because it fits that better.


* NowWhichOneWasThatVoice: Although sources vary as to whether the dub was a union or non-union production, the ending credits are infamous for being very short and leaving out a lot of the production info, including even just the voice actors' names. The actors were later revealed through Usenet posts and from those who had worked at Sandy Frank.

* ActingForTwo: Justified, due to the limited voice acting pool used in the dub:
** Peewee and Aggie, as mentioned above, were both voiced by Barbara Goodson, who also provided the voices of several different female characters (including Galactor's female commander) and many young boys. The episode "Invisible Enemy" opens with a youth soccer match where Goodson spends a whole '' sequence'' talking to herself as all the players.
** Aside from voicing Dirk, Cam Clarke also voiced Red Impulse and numerous side characters.
** Galactor and various goons and bit parts were all voiced by Bill Capizzi.
** Hooty, Dr. Brighthead, and Computor were all voiced by the same actor, who took on other roles of mooks and civilians as well.

Hey Its That Guy cut by TRS decision. Ditto for Hey Its That Voice.

** Before Fred Ladd was enlisted, Turner tested a much different production team in 1985 (The Media 360 Group). Episode 26 was dubbed as a pilot, although Turner opted to not go through with the adaptation due to the expenses, and wanted a cheaper production. Rather than being dubbed in California, Media 360's version of ''G-Force'' had actors based out of Georgia, and had a completely different set of names for the characters (the final "Guardians of Space" names are listed in parentheses:

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: The first six episodes of G-Force were spread across the first six DVDs of Rhino's "Battle of the Planets" releases as extras, but this practice was discontinued. A random selection of seven episodes would be released on DVD in 2004, and nothing further came after that. However, a PAL release of "Battle of the Planets" did include the workprint versions of G-Force's pilots.

* TheOtherDarrin: The roles of Hooty, Computor, and Dr. Brighthead alternated (at still-unspecified exact points) between being voiced by either Gregg Berger or Jan Rabson. Cam Clarke was also absent for the recording of "The Monster Plants"/"Those Fatal Flowers" (episodes 39 and 40), which lead to Dirk and Red Impulse being voiced by an unknown stand-in (either one of the others in the voice pool or a completely different actor).

** Hooty, Dr. Brighthead, and Computor were all voiced by the same actor, who took on other roles of mooks and civilians as well.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: The series was originally meant to have all the music replaced, with no Gatchaman score remaining. Due to time and budget constraints, Dean Andre only got to completely rescore episodes 18 and 87 (recorded first), while all other episodes kept the Japanese [=BGM=] (except when the infamous "G-Force" backbeat was used to plug up silence).

** The workprint versions of episodes 18 and 87 on the PAL DVD release of "Battle of the Planets" exhibit a completely different score even from the broadcast airings of the episodes, and include much different opening and ending themes (with a different narrator).
