Trivia
- The level's introduction sequence is a spoof of the introduction to the television series Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.
- The music of LOGBOX 720 has a small portion of the music from Gruntilda's Lair mixed in, and also features, at one point, a robotic voice (similar to L.O.G.'s) singing the following lyrics:
- "Welcome to my world,
- Stupid bear and bird.
- Lots to do and see,
- Stop 'n' Swop on 360."
- Grant Kirkhope had originally composed a tune for LOGBOX 720 that remixed sections of the Grunty Industries theme. Though this version did not make it into the game, Grant has released a download of the original composition on his website.[1]
