* AnimationBump: Season 2 has undeniably higher quality animation than it's stiffer, cheaper looking forebear run of episodes. The character models and color palette feel more on par with the best, hand drawn content Marvel was producing around this time.

* MerchandiseDriven: Likely the reason why the first season featured Iron Man and Force Works vs. the Mandarin's LegionOfDoom (it was a very similar setup to ''{{Transformers}}'', ''WesternAnimation/{{ThunderCats|1985}}'', and ''WesternAnimation/HeManAndTheMastersOfTheUniverse1983''), and ''definitely'' the reason that season 2 gave Iron Man the ability to switch armors on the fly to adapt to any situation. Marvel had looked at the success of the multi-colored Batman toys in the wake of ''Film/BatmanReturns'' and were trying to copy its success with Iron Man by giving him an armor for every occasion (and compared to Batman, IM's different armor variants made sense most of the time). It didn't take off as well as Marvel had hoped.
