Errors

 * Wildmutt's lips are black instead of orange.
 * Ultimate Big Chill does not have an Ultimatrix symbol.

Trivia

 * On iTunes the icons of the following volumes include the following aliens: Volume 1 - Ultimate Humungousaur, Volume 2 - Ultimate Big Chill, Volume 3 - Ultimate Spidermonkey, Volume 4 - Rath, Volume 5 - Echo Echo.
