The animation model of Roboto, based on the action figure by Mattel, was developed by character designer Harry Sabin.
Because this series was produced to be broadcast in syndication, and did not have a set broadcast order, Modulok appears here before his origin story, Mistaken Identity (1985).
The drilling machine activated by Modulok was used earlier by Skeletor in The Search (1983) and The Games (1985). It also appears as the Roto-Rocket used by the Heroic Warriors in The Energy Beast (1984).
The animation of He-Man using his mighty lungs to blow something away was first seen in The Once and Future Duke (1983) and was also used in The Rarest Gift of All (1984), Betrayal of Stratos (1984), A Trip to Morainia (1985), Just a Little Lie (1984) and The Greatest Show on Eternia (1984).
