Trivia[]
- The alternate universe was likely inspired by the mirror universe in Star Trek, a parallel universe where many of the same people existed, but with opposite moralities — hence the term "mirror universe" to describe it. However, in Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, the only one whose morality is opposite to his prime universe counterpart's is the Evil Buzz Lightyear.
- Evil Buzz's goatee is also a reference to Star Trek, as Spock in the mirror universe also had a goatee.
Errors[]
- At the picnic at Buzz's house, one of the Space Rangers is seen in his uniform in one shot, then in off duty clothing shortly afterwards.
