Animation and Technical Errors[]
- Near the end of the episode, a black male wearing Bazooka's uniform fires on the retreating Cobra forces.
- Dusty is shown with jet black hair at the beginning and end of the episode; all other times in the series he is portrayed with dirty-blond hair.
Continuity Errors[]
- Cover Girl is identified by Zartan as being a "make-up expert." Although she is a former model and shares her codename with a brand of make-up, Cover Girl is actually an armor specialist and mechanic. Lady Jaye is the Joe team disguise and make-up specialist, as featured in episodes such as "Money to Burn."
