Goofs

- In the first shot of the video game store, Sonic and the Sheep Villager are shown barely reaching the height of Knuckles' shoulders. In the next shot however (which occurs immediately after the first one), Sonic and the Sheep Villager are much more elevated, almost as if they are standing on the porch in front of Knuckles (which they did not in the previous shot).
- The shade of Cubot's yellow color scheme differs between his body and gloves.
