* ActorAllusion:
** In "The Motor City Maniac", Vinnie comments that he finds Napoleon Brie familiar for some reason, with Brie responding by suggesting that they may have gone to high school together. This is a reference to the fact that their voice actors Ian Ziering and Luke Perry both played characters on the teen drama ''Series/BeverlyHills90210''.
** In the third part of "Once Upon a Time on Mars", the Biker Mice get into an argument on what kind of maneuver to use to destroy the Plutarkian Tug Transformer, all of their suggestions being allusions to their voice actors. Vinnie (voiced by Ian Ziering) suggests the Zip-Zapping Ziering Zero, Modo (voiced by Dorian Harewood) suggests the Harewood Crooked 10, and Throttle (voiced by Creator/RobPaulsen) insists on using the Rob-bobbin' Paulsen Doggle 2.
