* Some believe that the Ghost of Starmen enemies are the same Starmen that Ninten defeated in EarthBound Beginnings.
* In the EarthBound Player's Guide, a tip regarding the enemies fought in Onett later in the game claim that the Ghost of Starmen are capable of dropping items such as Multi-Bottle Rockets, but in the final game, it is only capable of dropping the Goddess Ribbon.
* The Ghost of Starman is called "Starman's Ancestor" in Japan, and at one point was going to be called that in the English version.
* At the end of every battle, it has a 1/128 chance of dropping the Goddess Ribbon, Paula's best ribbon in the game.
