Card Trivia:Dragon Nails
- This card has a retrained Rush Duel counterpart: "Meteorite Dragon Nails".
- This card's additional effects in the OCG/TCG are based on its appearance during Katsuya Jonouchi (Joey Wheeler) and Bandit Keith's Duel in the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga, and the equivalent Duel in the anime.
- This card's effect to prevent the equipped monster from being destroyed by card effects is based on a scene where Joey Wheeler uses this card to protect "Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon" from being destroyed by the self-destruction effect of "Blast Sphere" by increasing his monster's ATK to become greater than that of the 2900 ATK "Blast Sphere".
- In the manga, "Blast Sphere" self-destructed at the end of Joey's turn, and Joey managed to draw this card that turn. In the anime, "Blast Sphere" self-destructed at the end of Bandit Keith's turn, and Joey already had this card Set.
- This card being able to equip any DARK monster, rather than just DARK Dragon monsters, references how "Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon" is a Machine monster in the OCG/TCG.
- This card's second effect to Special Summon the equipped monster from the Graveyard after it is destroyed by battle, and then equipping this card to that monster, is based on a scene from two turns later in the same Duel: Joey uses "Time Machine" to bring back "Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon" after it was destroyed by battle with "Slot Machine", and Summons it exactly as it was at the start of that turn, when it was equipped with this card.
- This card's effect to prevent the equipped monster from being destroyed by card effects is based on a scene where Joey Wheeler uses this card to protect "Red-Eyes Black Metal Dragon" from being destroyed by the self-destruction effect of "Blast Sphere" by increasing his monster's ATK to become greater than that of the 2900 ATK "Blast Sphere".
- This card has the longest OCG import time of any Equip Spell Card, released over 23 years after its first appearance in the Yu-Gi-Oh! manga on March 29, 1999.
