- Bill Fletcher and Laura Dubuk, the face models for the Portal 2 personas Cave Johnson and Caroline respectively, appeared in costume while signing.
- Approximately 200 additional Sandvich toys were released in the Valve Store on December 7th, 2012. The package for these toys is marked as "Valve Store Edition", and the included card with serial code is plastic instead of paper; Aside from this, nothing else is different. This limited re-release sold out in hours.
- On October 17th, 2013, the Omnomnomed Edition of the Sandvich toy was released in the Valve Store. These toys sold out in less than a day, and contained several additional Sandvich Boxes.
