The unknown G.I.Joe vehicle (right) that briefly appears while Cross Country

Afterburner (left).

| An early Crankcase character design is seen after General Hawk enters the transport plane. |
|
 |
| The first appearance of the Swampfire is much larger than the later appearances. |
|
 
Snow Job and Duke switch places while traveling to the tomb of Ivan
the Terrible in a Snow Cat.

Although Lift-Ticket was flying the helicopter, he was accidently included in the distant background.
