Trivia
- In April 2014, this episode aired on Cartoon Network for the entire Latin America. However, there was no announcement of the premiere of the second season, which supposedly would air on March 6.
- When this episode was released by the official YouTube channel, it was incorrectly listed as "Rise of the Ultralinks Part 1". The description also featured Blast Link's name as Boom Link.
- Its description also specifies the characters and gear that debuted in the episode, something that was made by another YouTube user at that time prior to the release of the video.
- There were design changes applied to Max's Turbo Speed Mode and Turbo Flight Mode, now having green lines and a shield on the head, respectively.
