Wonder Woman and She-Ra were indeed two of the people I was thinking of. Looked up Princess Nida, and while she's skilled with disguises... she's otherwise a normal human, and isn't called by any other name.
I didn't think "superheroine" was too vague a category? I'd meant that the character has another name and/or costume while doing heroic deeds.

Since the computer's acting up and I may not be on again for a few days, I'm cutting short this question. Sorry, people... Someone go ahead and post.

OK I would argue over Princess Nida. Having seen the cartoon, she didn't just don a wig or mask, her features and voice would magically transform, thus she had a super-power. The whole team act as superheroes even if they do not use costumes or code-names.
I would be interested to know your third.
OK, I am taking the question based on Seth saying someone should and having gotten two of the three officially correct.
QUESTION:
Who "when he gets in a scrape, he makes his escape with the help of his friend, an ape named Ape"?

Okay, I hadn't seen that series in recent times (though I know it's been on Boomerang). The info I found on the Net about Nila is that she was a master of disguise, not that she was Mystique. Let's see... I was thinking Gravity Girl, of the Galaxy Trio; unfortunately, while she was revealed as the princess of her world, her actual name was never given. So I may not have been able to count her, under my own rules. Usagi Tsukino (Sailor Moon) was the reincarnation of Princess Serenity, and could mystically transform into that form to fight foes too strong for Sailor Moon's powers. Chibiusa (Rini in the English translation) is likewise a princess in her native 30th century.

In "Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!", what was the initial reason for Velma losing her glasses at inopportune moments?

Scooby or Shaggy would bump into her while fleeing in panic?

Sorry, let me rephrase the question:
Why did the writers/animators decide to have Velma lose her glasses at inopportune moments? Not what event would make her lose the glasses; that was my fault. I was trying not to be too obvious in the initial question.

Because otherwise she'd always find all the clues?

Still not right.
Hint: it was something that happened while they were still creating the first episode that decided this.

One of their first sponsors was for contact lenses so they wanted to show why it's inconvenient to still wear glasses?

Is it something as simple as they animated a scene and forgot that she should be wearing glasses so had to come up with an explanation for where they'd gone? Basically, a continuity fubar.
