* The color plate of Studio Nue/VMI art included in the ''ComStar'' sourcebook for the ''Nexus'', ''[[Raijin]]'' and ''[[Grand Crusader]]'' referred to the ''Nexus'' as the ''Star Python'' and the ''Raijin'' as the ''Galahad'' ([[Glass Spider (Galahad)|a name already elsewhere]]) in conflict with the rest of the written text and later [[Technical Readouts]]. When queried decades later, the [[Line Developer]] at the time would clarify the ''Star Python'' existed only in error and the correct name was the ''Nexus'', until ''Moving Forward'' would repurpose the ''Star Python'' name for the Clan Goliath Scorpion version of the 'Mech.
