Math Magic[]
A majority of these instances are done with Reks (unless otherwise specified):
- 2 + 2 = 4 (penny coins and Reks)
- 2 + 1 + 1 = 4 (penny coins)
- 4 + 4 = 8
- 5 + 3 = 8
- 8 + 2 = 10
- 5 + 1 = 6
- 10 - 1 = 9
- 6 + 3 = 9
- 5 + 4 = 9 (penny coins)
- 10 + 10 = 20 (Numberblocks)
- 5 + 5 = 10
- 10 + 4 = 14
- 7 + 3 = 10
- 5 + 2 = 7
- 10 + 7 = 17
Trivia[]
- This episode aired exactly twelve years after the Alphablocks episode: Box.
- This episode marks the return of the robots since Steps Versus Squares.
- This is the latest appearance or mention of Numberblock planets after Flights of Fancy, Heist and One Giant Step Squad.
- This episode may take place after the Alphablocks and Numberblocks crossover special: Making Friends, because not only is the entire episode taking place in space, but One arrives in a rocket and she said that she “saw so many things”.
- This is why the Magic Mirror doesn't appear in this episode.
- This is the first appearance of Reks, Rekenrek and Decablobs.
- However, Reks and Decablobs only appear in this episode, because Rekenrek can be found in the next episode.
- This is the first, if not only, time where aliens speak in sentences.
- In Building Blocks, an alien appears, but it only says “Up”.
- This is the first and currently only episode where Twenty's hat is mainly in the centre instead of the sides.
- Additionally, this is the only time he appears in Series 6. He wouldn't be found until the first three episodes of Series 7, which come after this episode's next episode.
- This episode implies that Numberland coins do not follow real-world UK denominations exactly (the Decablob family pay with a 17-pennycoin).
- However, a coin with face value 17 has been issued before in European history, see 17 Kreuzers in Austrian Empire.
