- TriviaConsidered to be a prequel to "Toy Story". The baby in the short film is considered to be Andy Davis, the owner of Woody, Buzz Lightyear, and the other toys in the "Toy Story" film.
- GoofsThe number of panes in the reflection of the window from Tin Toy is inconsistent with the number of panes in the shadow cast on the wooden floor. This was deliberate by the 3D modelers as they wanted a cartoon 'bubble'-like feel to the reflection on Tin Toy and not a realistic one.

Featured review
A simple but engaging plot
This animated short is about the constantly changing interaction between a toy marching band figure and a baby.
The story is simple but engaging. The marching figure has a mind of its own, first avoiding the terrible baby who terrorises toys (and even the boxes of the toys). When the baby cries, the marching figure decides that he has sympathy and compassion, and bravely goes back out to cheer the baby up. I got alarmed when the baby puts a bag on his head, and I was lifted up by the bravery of the marching figure.
The animation looks sub standard in modern day standards, but when I look back twenty years ago, the 2D animations I watched when I was a child were nowhere as good as this.
