Continuity mistake: When Howard Stark is saying he doesn't remember how he ended up being a captive of A.I.M., his head and pillow are closer to the top of the bed than they were in all previous and subsequent shots. (00:07:19 - 00:08:01)

Iron Man (1994)
Revealing mistake: When Tony Stark is approaching his father Walter in the hospital bed, what looks to be a hair on the animation cel appears to the left (viewer's right) of Walter's head, beginning on the pillow and extending off the bed, and then disappears after a few frames, just before Tony steps into the shot. (00:07:32)

Fantastic Four: The Animated Series (1994)
Plot hole: After Psycho-Man, disguised as Reed, lures Sue away from the outdoor tables of the cafe where she was dining with Alicia, Johnny and the real Reed walk up to Alicia a mere three seconds later and ask where Sue is. Reed and Johnny should have easily seen Psycho-Man impersonating Reed and walking away with Sue, because they approached Alicia from the street, it's not like they turned the corner out of some alley. (00:07:01)

Fantastic Four: The Animated Series (1994)
Continuity mistake: When Reed is showing everyone the new element, he is wearing a white lab coat. When Sue tells him to take a night off to go to the movies, he is suddenly wearing a light-blue suit jacket, and Sue holds up a white lab coat in front of him like the one he was just wearing. (00:00:13 - 00:00:34)

Iron Man (1994)
Continuity mistake: When Walter Stark is first shown in the hospital bed, his pillow is brown, and looks to be made from a hard material, judging from the light reflection coming off it. When the shot changes, the pillow is beige and looks soft like a pillow should. (00:07:19)
16th Dec 2020
Iron Man (1994)
Continuity mistake: When Iron Man says "Stealth One out," Nick Fury has a toothpick in his mouth. When the shot changes, the toothpick is gone. (00:01:20)
16th Dec 2020
Fantastic Four: The Animated Series (1994)
Audio problem: When Reed is saying "The psychic explosion freed her from Psycho-Man's control," his mouth isn't moving. (00:19:31)
16th Dec 2020
Iron Man (1994)
Factual error: When Iron Man and Rhodey first begin defending Stark Enterprises from A.I.M, the moon in the night sky is far too large. (00:15:34)
16th Dec 2020
Iron Man (1994)
Continuity mistake: When Tony is shackled to the platform, the distance between the top of his head and the top of the platform, and his feet from the floor vary throughout the scene. (00:18:19 - 00:18:52)
16th Dec 2020
Iron Man (1994)
Continuity mistake: When Tony is asking his father if he remembers anything about Nick Fury, he leans up against a control panel, there is a large monitor behind him, and he is standing with his left profile to his father. When the shot changes, it is now a bare wall behind Tony, and he is directly facing his father. A couple of shots later, Tony is suddenly standing several feet away from his father, nowhere near the control panel. (00:10:41)

Iron Man (1994)
Continuity mistake: When the reporter is talking about Walter Stark being rushed to the hospital, the emergency vehicle behind her changes in appearance when the shot changes. (00:08:09)

X-Men (1992)
Slave Island - S1-E7
Stupidity: At the beginning of the episode, Pyro is among the Genoshan prisoners, and he is wearing his flamethrower device. While his inhibitor collar will suppress his mutant power of pyrokinesis, he can still use the flamethrower itself as a weapon. This would be akin to a prison allowing an inmate to walk around with a loaded gun. (00:02:12)

Iron Man (1994)
Cell of Iron - S2-E3
Revealing mistake: When Iron Man is flying towards Star Well as it is hurtling towards Earth after clearing out Sunturion, you can see the animators didn't depict it actually moving towards Earth, it is motionless. (00:19:09)
16th Dec 2020
Iron Man (1994)
Cell of Iron - S2-E3
Factual error: When Iron Man is floating away from the asteroid after his thrusters and repulsors have malfunctioned, he somehow comes to a dead stop in the vacuum of space. (00:07:27)

Storm: No, Gambit. We cannot endanger human life.
Gambit: Maybe you can't. (00:20:09)

Iron Man (1994)
Cell of Iron - S2-E3
Continuity mistake: When Dum Dum Dugan is holding up the documents for Iron Man to see, his right hand is grasping them by the top-center. When the shot changes to the documents reflected in Iron Man's helmet, Dugan's hand is missing from the reflection. The words on the document are also gibberish. (00:03:12)

X-Men (1992)
Continuity mistake: When Wolverine takes the spear out of Kiyoek's hands, it is silver. When he throws it into the water, it is brown. (00:14:36)
11th Dec 2020
X-Men (1992)
Other mistake: When Gambit, Storm, and Jubilee get into the back of the taxi, you can see the window seat behind the driver is unoccupied, which would suggest the three of them are occupying only two of the backseats. (00:12:51)

Inhumans Saga: Part 3: Beware the Hidden Land - S2-E4
Factual error: When Maximus is looking at the video feed of Earth, the numbers for the yardlines on the football field are backwards. They should be marked as 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50, but instead say 1, 02, 03, 04, and 05. (00:18:44)

Revealing mistake: When Black Bolt tackles the Seeker, the edge of an animation cel is visible on the viewer's immediate left of the Seeker. (00:16:58)
