- Derrick also worked on Alien Force and Ultimate Alien, albeit mostly just doing freelance work. For example, he did concept art for Eatle^{[DJW 2]} and designed SevenSeven.^{[DJW 3]}
Derrick is an avid toy collector and owns toys of Ben 10 characters throughout the original continuity.
Derrick reviewed most of the Omniverse figures in various stages of production. Sometimes he makes notes to Bandai to make the toys be more on model.^{[DJW 4]} He also contributes to some toy-exclusive design, such as Toepick's tentacle covered face.^{[DJW 5]}
When asked about the most fun thing to design when working on Omniverse, Derrick stated that he liked designing the civilians based on Ben's aliens.^{[DJW 6]}
Derrick's favorite Omnitrix alien is Grey Matter.^{[DJW 7]}
Derrick's favorite episodes from throughout the Classic Continuity are Ben 10,000 for the original series, X = Ben + 2 for Alien Force, Double or Nothing for Ultimate Alien and Universe vs. Tennyson for Omniverse.^{[DJW 8]}^{[DJW 9]}

- Other aliens he had considered having include Echo Echo, Juryrigg, Walkatrout, Whampire, and Antigravitesla.^{[DJW 12]}^{[DJW 13]}
- The only outliners are Ultimate Goop, as Ultimate Forms can only be accessed using an Ultimatrix, and Big Chuck, as alien fusions can only be accessed using the Biomnitrix.
An ideal crossover with Omniverse that Derrick has in mind would be with the 2011 Thundercats animated series.^{[DJW 14]}
