## Trivia

* During early production, Evil Macaque's mech was called the "War Rig", and in place of Rumble and Savage, would have used the LEGO monkey piece molded fully in black.
* The battle featured in this set bears a striking resemblance to the episode "The Winning Side", as both the episode and set feature Macaque using his mech to battle against MK, Mei, and Sandy in the desert.
