  • One promotional poster showed Yu Tendo alongside Masamune's Ray Striker D125CS rather than Yu's own Flame Libra T125ES.
  • The Japanese DVD release included a Rainbow Ver. Ray Unicorno D125CS, actually a re-release of the Aurora Ver. with a new sticker sheet.
  • A scene shows Gingka glancing at a calendar reading August 21, 2010 — an easter egg matching the film's real release date.
