** And almost ''every [[Power Rangers]]'' team has an episode in which the [[Big Bad]] creates [[The Psycho Rangers|bad Rangers]]. The Jungle Fury season did a variation on it, with the "Five Fingers of Poison," poisonous animal-based Monsters Of The Week, as an [[Evil Counterpart]] team rather than an [[Evil Twin]] team. They later did have an [[Evil Knockoff]] the Spirit Rangers, senior members of the Rangers' order, with original suits and attacks based on the masters' own animal spirits.
** The [[Mighty Morphin Power Rangers|original series]] did this most memorably in "Return of the Green Ranger" when White Ranger [[God Mode Sue|Tommy]] was cloned and the clone became the Green Ranger.
* Princess Ardala created several copies of the eponymous hero in ''[[Buck Rogers]]''. One of them was to be sent to Earth to act as a spy; the others... were to be kept by Ardala [[LampshadedIf DoubleYou EntendreKnow What I Mean|for her own private purposes]].
* In an episode of ''[[The A-Team]]'' a villainous landowner hires some thugs to pretend to be the A-Team to terrorize his enemies, with a fake Hannibal, fake B.A., and a fake Face. It ends as well for him as you might imagine.
* [[Get Smart|KAOS]] created Gropo the robot to destroy Hymie (who was created by KAOS in the first place, but changed sides).

** And in ''358/2 Days'' it seems that {{spoiler|Xion, an imperfect Replica of Sora, was a failed [[Evil Knockoff]]}}
*** Ooooh, that's a really ''complex'' one. {{spoiler|Roxas is important to the Organization, because he can use the Keyblade, meaning that unlike the entire rest of the Goddamn Organization, he can actually contribute to it's ultimate goal. But Roxas is kind of a wild card and the higher-ups don't like that, so Xion was created to siphon off Sora's memories from Roxas, and his ability to use the Keyblade, so that they could have someone they could control. So she's actually meant to be an [[Evil Knockoff]] of ''both'' of them, and no, that's not redundant}}.
* In ''[[Nicktoons Unite!|Nicktoons: Attack of the Toybots]]'', [[Tim Curry|Calamitous]]' evil legion of [[Living Toys]] are backed up by robotic clones of [[SpongeBob SquarePants]], [[Danny Phantom]], his archnemesis [[Jimmy Neutron]], [[The Fairly Odd Parents|Timmy Turner]], and [[Tak and the Power of Juju|Tak]] who, beyond looking like those heroes, have zilch to do with them in abilities. The proposed explanation for this is that these robots are built from Master Models, figurines holding data from characters around the multiverse that Calamitous kidnapped and then dumped back home and mindwiped to keep his secret plans, uhh, secret (Except that the first two were never seen captured at all during the storyline, though their previous clash two games ago might fill in for that.). And considering what Master Models you collect in game, we have to question what makes him consider that ''[[Hey Arnold!|Arnold]] is as worthy as [[Avatar: The Last Airbender|Aang]].''
* The [[Big Bad]] in ''Dengeki Gakuen RPG: Cross of Venus'' sends out copies of various characters (none of which are of the playable characters) to act out his evil plans of [[Canon Defilement]] on the featured [[Light Novels]] (really). All of those fakers are bosses (in fact, it'd be easier to list which bosses are ''not'' clones) and while looking exactly like the genuine characters (except for the [[Toradora!|Minori]] and [[To Aru Majutsu no Index|Kanzaki]] clones, who both have villainous eyes), they are also [[Power Creep, Power Seep|weaker]] than them (except for the Minori clone again, considering what kind of story ''Toradora'' is in the first place) as one of them admits after defeat.
* In ''[[Endless Frontier]]'', the {{spoiler|Einst}} create copies of Haken and Excellen, and later even produce versions of the Personal Troopers.
