Trivia[]
- Jeppe Riddervold provides The Royal Blacksmiths' singing voice, though he is only credited for this in the 2012 blooper reel (as "The Mega Ultra Dragon Quartet") and "Day of the Departed".
- The band uniforms are an altered version of Indiana Jones' white tuxedo torso from LEGO Indiana Jones.
- In "The Royal Blacksmiths," the ninja take The Royal Blacksmiths' place and perform as a band called "Spin Harmony."
- At certain points in "Day of the Great Devourer" and "Rise of the Spinjitzu Master," Lou is replaced with a second version of one of the other members.
- One of the member's hair piece was similar to Lou's, up until "Day of the Departed", when it was replaced by a black version of Lloyd's original teenager hair piece (later used on Clutch Powers). The reason for this is unknown, though possibly to avoid confusion.
- The character designs of two of the members (the one using Lloyd's Pre Season 8 hairpiece and the one using Ed/Dr. Julien/Griffin Turner's hairpiece) appear multiple times in the crowd of the concert in "Day of the Departed".
- It is unknown when the group was formed, but it is known that it existed during Cole's childhood, as a painting of The Royal Blacksmiths appeared in "Dungeon Crawl!."
