(Fantastic Four cartoon episode, "Nightmare in Green") - While visiting New York City, the X-Men, in their civilian guises, enjoyed the view over the city from the Empire State Building' observatory. But they were in for a surprise when suddenly the Fantastic Four's Aircycle flew over, with the Human Torch and Rick Jones on it. Quickly thereafter a black crow followed them, the X-Men were unaware it was one of Dr Doom's machines following the duo.
Comments: Created by Thomas McLaughlin Jr. (director), Glenn Leopold (writer).
These are the X-Men of Earth-534834, the reality designation for the Marvel Action Hour consisting of Iron Man: The Animated Series (1994-1996), Fantastic Four (1994-1996) and later The Incredible Hulk (1996-1997) cartoon shows. They were clearly meant to look like the X-Men from the X-Men: The Animated Series (1992-1997) show which is Earth-92131, even their outfits are the same. Nicely done! Therefore these version and their particular personalties/powers are closer to the X-Men cartoon than the comics.
Rick Jones acted as Dr. Bruce Banner's assistant while working on a cure for the Thing's rock-like physique.
Another cameo was made in the same scene by the Scarlet Spider who was the Spider-Man at the time.

Juggernaut was seen rising out of the ocean pulling himself up onto New York City's Brooklyn Bridge.
Note: Although it's just a 1 second cameo of the Juggernaut it's in fact a subtle nod to the X-Men's cartoon "The Phoenix Saga: Cry of the Banshee" in which the Juggernaut was launched into the Atlantic Ocean by the Imperial Guard's leader Gladiator.
