Other notes

Animation and/or technical glitches

• When Slizardo and Bosch approach Astrotrain, Slizardo's animation cell does not change, resulting in him appearing much smaller than Bosch.

Continutity errors

• In terms of airdates, this episode is DEFINITELY played out of order, as we've seen several of the characters that are still trying to escape from Aron's planet in Child's Play on Earth prior to this one.

Miscellaneous trivia

• Slizardo would eventually return in the season 3 episode Grimlock's New Brain alongside the Skuxxoid.
