Trivia

The long winded name for the weapon (Illudium Q-36 Explosive Space Modulator) was taken from a weapon of planet destructive calibre by Marvin the Martian in Looney Toons, designed over 2000 years to destroy Earth, of all reasons because it obstructs his view of Venus. In that episode, like in this film he insists on saying the mouthful of a name for the weapon many times.

Due to being a Saban Entertainment production, the film features multiple references to Saban Entertainment and reused costumes from Saban productions

The costumes of Eye Guy, Snow Monster and Stag Beetle from Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Combat Gnat from Big Bad Beetleborgs were used. The Piranhatron suits from Power Rangers Turbo were also used, albeit repainted and modified.

In one scene, a missile hits the Blue Ranger from Power Rangers In Space (appearing via reused footage from Denji Sentai Megaranger).

Michelangelo from Ninja Turtles: The Next Mutation can be seen flying in outer space in another scene.
