• On the comments for Magee's reblog of Kazumi's challenge, there are users with pictures of people cosplaying as members of the G Team sans Quatre Raberba Winner. Patrick Colasour is one of said users, cosplaying as Trowa Barton.
• The commentors on Kazami's challenge reference a bunch of mechs from throughout the franchise in their user pictures, including Holy Machine Soldier Gunrex, SYSTEM ∀-99 ∀ Gundam, GF13-009NF Gundam Rose, Kuromajin Yami Koutei, and even a RX-79BD-1 Blue Destiny Unit 1 modeled after the obscure Gekitaman Gundam model line.
  • The last one is notable because the original Gekitaman Gundam line never featured the RX-79BD-1 Blue Destiny Unit 1.

  • Prismatic Mobiles - A series of artbooks for mechanical designs of Mobile Suit Gundam Unicorn and its related spin-offs.
  • Blanc d’Amour Team - A Neo Zeon Mobile Suit team based aboard the Garencieres-class ship Blanc d’Amour from the Manga Mobile Suit Gundam U.C. 0096: Last Sun.
  • 1/144 - The most common scale for Gunpla.
  • Fresberg - An Earth Federation corps from the Manga Mobile Suit Gundam U.C. 0094: Across The Sky.
  • School of the Undefeated of the East, West, South, North, and Center - An excerpt from Master Asia's infamous "Super Asia" speech in the Mobile Fighter G Gundam episode "All Fighters Gathered! The Final Battles Begin".
  • Battle-Rave - The Trading-Card Game Fusion Clashes: Gundam Battle-Rave.
  • Is the Order an INLE? - A reference to both the Advance of Zeta mechs RX-124 Gundam TR-6 ［Inle］& ARZ-124INL ［Inle］ and the Yonkoma Manga series Is the Order a Rabbit?.
  • The Beast of Possibility - A symbolic nickname for RX-0 Unicorn Gundam.
• The preview of the next episode is narrated by the previous protagonist of Gundam Build Divers series, Riku.
