    Okay, so I once thought I wouldn't be playing O-12. But then, I saw that O-12 has Hippolyta *and* Parvati (two troopers I really like). Then, I recalled a late 1980s cartoon named COPS. Then, I looked at O-12 again. And then it all clicked for me... O-12 as COPS!

    And so, here's my first O-12 list inspired by the idea of Central Organization for Police Specialists:

    COPS: It's Crime-fighting Time!
    ──────────────────────────────────────────────────

    YUDBOT PARA CC Weapon(-3). (0 | 3)

    2 SWC | 296 Points

    Open in Infinity Army

    7 Specialists, 3 non-Specialists (but still cool characters). I guess I could've ditched Shona and used Dredd Lawkeeper instead, to keep it even closer to the theme. But I liked the idea of Hippolyta and Shona being bash sisters and going into CC together...

    Feel free to rip into this list :D

    I don't remember that cartoon! I thought I knew all 80s cartoons too. Since I think I watched most of them at that time lol.

    It looks a lot of fun. I Hope you don't play mission to kill specialists with it. but it looks relatively easy to switch out some if you need to.

    C.O.P.S. had a pretty damn epic title seqeuence, and looking at it again it actually almost fits the Infinity aesthetic:

    Oh, I'm not saying it was truly good cartoon or something... :) Still, it's one of those cartoons I still remember. And when I put Hippolyta and Parvati on an O-12 list and thought "Hey, it's Hippolyta & Parvati, the Super-Cops!", my mind immediately made a connection...

    ... just when, this morning, I looked at Nyokas and my sleepy mind came up with O-12 Section COBRA: Covert Bureau of Retribution and Assasination :)

    Ah, yes, true. There are missions where you score by killing Specialists...

    Unfortunately, the rest of the cartoon didn't look as good. Not that it was an uncommon thing: it wasn't the only cartoon that seemed to have blown a lot of its budget on a rad intro...

    I remember it had a line of "action figures" who all went to the same gym as He-man (and the later "Power of the force" SW figures). It was like GI-Jingo but with cops instead.
