Trivia

Errors

• The story XR tells of his first meeting with Buzz is completely at odds with their actual first meeting in The Adventure Begins. This may have been intentional, given XR's tendency to lie in order to make himself look better, but could also be an internal continuity error.
• Throughout most of the episode, Buzz has a Saturn ring around the Star Command emblem on his suit.
• In one shot, the red edges at the bottom of Zurg's chest armor are grey.
