* As seen in [http://i.imgur.com/GJEdi.jpg this image], many of the stone transformations are [[Call Back|Call Backs]] to other [[The Cameo|characters]] and elements of the series, with some of the forms like the block with the gold star, the weight, and the bodybuilder coming directly from ''[[Kirby Super Star]]'' and the Master Hand transformation being a reference to ''[[Super Smash Bros.]]'', with him previously appeared in ''[[Kirby and The Amazing Mirror]]''.
* Many riffs from KSS' theme appear in several endgame tracks, including the ever-present Milky Way Wishes fanfare.
* The {{spoiler|sudden SHUMP level before the final boss is reminiscent of the Nova sequence from Milky Way Wishes.}}
* As mentioned below, {{spoiler|Magolor's}} final form is referred to as {{spoiler|Magolor Soul}} in Extra Mode, a nod to Drawcia and Marx. In addition, {{spoiler|Magolor's}} first form is reminiscent of Nightmare, and {{spoiler|Magolor Soul's}} mouth forms a large eye similar to Dark Matter and Zero. His second form in normal mode has one too, although it's a lot less noticeable, only visible in certain attacks.
* {{spoiler|Magolor's}} battle music also contains a couple of [[Call Back|Call Backs]] to previous bosses. {{spoiler|His}} first form has a loose variation of Dark Matter's theme from Dream Land 3, while {{spoiler|Magolor Soul's}} music is reminiscent of Nightmare's, and around the 1:50 mark contains the triumphant fanfare from Milky Way Wishes.
* There are some [[Recurring Riff|Recurring Riffs]] that are heard in the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=160KrZAERaM credits]. The Milky Way Wishes ending theme and the trailer music for the cancelled Kirby GCN can be heard in it near the end, and are sprinkled throughout the song.
