1* ActorAllusion: In episode 8, Yomi is seen eating a lollipop. Her voice actress, Creator/IoriNomizu, previously voiced both Febrie and Janie from [[Manga/ACertainScientificRailgun To Aru Kagaku No Railgun S]] and the TrademarkFavoriteFood of the latter two are lollipops.
2** Like the first series, there have been more than a few ''Creator'' Allusions to animation director Creator/MasamiObari, such as Team SRSC's Ez-8s being {{Expies}} of the [[Anime/MetalArmorDragonar Dragonar Team]] or Transient Gundam being based off of Anime/TekkamanBlade
3** Shia's Gundam Portent has a color scheme similar to [[Music/{{Vocaloid}} Miku Hatsune]], who is also voiced by Creator/SakiFujita.
4* AscendedFanon: After years of MS Girl fanart and custom figures, we finally have an official Bandai [[MoeAnthropomorphism MS girl]] model kit in the [[http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10345145 Super Fumina.]] With three variants (Titans Maid, Axis Angel and Winning Fumina) and two totally new characters (Hyper Gyanko and China Beargguy), the MS Girl subline can qualify as its own thing.
5* ContestWinnerCameo: The three winners of a series of Gunpla Making competitions for a custom Gunpla, a recolor, and a custom unit in Gundam Breakers were among the extras who helped to blasted apart the Rafflesia in Episode 25. They are as follows (in order of appearance): A Custom GM with a Sazabi head, a Sinanju torso and a Crosbone Gundam X1 cape titled "Go! Go! Our Captain Char!" (customized to resemble Char's classic outfit from the original series) from ''Gundam Breaker 2'', a Unicorn Gundam recolored to resemble the RX-78 or the [[VideoGame/GundamVsSeries Extreme Gundam]], and a Custom Gundam Zephyranthes named "Gundam Albion". The Ξ Gundam from ''[[Literature/MobileSuitGundamHathawaysFlash Hathaway's Flash]]'' also made an appearance as the unit voted to be included in the series.
6* CowboyBebopAtHisComputer: During ''Build Fighters Try'''s run on the Singaporean kids' channel Okto, a commercial was made to promote the series, featuring clips from ''Try''... [[Anime/GundamBuildFighters but the narration was reused from the previous series, which describes it as "Sei Iori meets Reiji"]]. This was eventually fixed with a new narration a few weeks later.
7* CrossDressingVoices: A number of the boys in the series are voiced by women, similar to season 1.
8** The male character Sekai Kamiki is voiced by the female voice actress Kazumi Togashi.
9* TheDanza: Yuuma Kousaka is voiced by Yuuma Uchida, younger brother of Creator/MaayaUchida.
10* LifeImitatesArt: After the first episode's surprise appearance of the Build Burning Gundam, Gunpla enthusiasts checked and yes, it ''is'' possible, albeit with some customization work, to [[http://gundamguy.blogspot.com/2014/10/hg-1144-build-burning-gundam-cast-off.html fit the Build Burning Gundam inside the shell of a Dom]]. Gunpla stores also had to put up signs saying that the HGUC Dom kit does ''not'' come with a bonus Build Burning hidden inside.
11* MarthDebutedInSmashBros: Lucas Nemesis' Crossbone Gundam X1 Full Cloth is a rare straight-build Gundam given special focus in the show ''and'' made in HG 1/144 for the first time, necessitating the addition of "Type GBFT" to its model name.
12* TheOtherDarrin: Due to a sudden illness, Mr. Ral's voice actor Creator/MasashiHirose will be replaced by Katsuhisa Houki starting in episode 5.
13* WordOfGod: The speculation that the Build Burning Gundam was named in reference to the English dub of ''[[Anime/MobileFighterGGundam G Gundam]]'' got shot down in an [[http://yaraon.blog109.fc2.com/blog-entry-26917.html interview]] that revealed the Gundam was named by director Watada, who had no idea at the time that "Burning" was God Gundam's US name.
14* WhatCouldHaveBeen: [[https://vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/gundam/images/4/4f/Winning_Gundam_Design.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20170811073706 The Winning Gundam went through a lot of changes]]. It's loadout had various ideas, such as making it a tinier version of the Powered GM Cardigan or something akin to the Super Gundam. It could have also been a Guncannon, a GM that turned into a Ball or even a Guntank that turned into a Gunperry and a Type 71 tank. As well, the power ups for the Build Burning were different, including a shoulder cannon, a claw and a version of the fist that fired out Fumina's Core Fighter.
