Trivia
- Nex's 1.0-styled helmet is based on his 2.0 helmet from 2068 Nex 2.0 while he never had a 1.0 set.
- Nex is one of the four only sets to have a transparent green Hero 1.0 head piece, the others being 6202 ROCKA, 6203 BLACK PHANTOM, and 6218 SPLITFACE.
- Rocka has a shorter left forearm than his right for an unknown reason.
- Since Nex did not appear in Episode 8: Breakout Part 1 or Episode 9: Breakout Part 2 for an unknown reason, he does not have his own Breakout Animation.
- Strangely, Nex does not have his own level in the Breakout game, neither did XT4 or Mechna appear in the game.
- This is the final Nex set, as Nex does not have his own Brain Attack or Invasion From Below sets for unknown reasons.
