Card Trivia

 This card is the first Level 10 Dragon monster.
This card has the same theme as Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon and Dark Eradicator Warlock as each of them is an advanced form of their original counterparts.
This card follows the same theme as Red-Eyes Darkness Dragon, as they are an advanced, armless version of their original counterparts, have the same original ATK and DEF, are 2 Levels higher than their original counterparts, and gain 300 ATK for each Dragon-Type monster in the owner's Graveyard. The main difference being that while Red-Eyes Darkness only requires its original counterpart as a Tribute and has no further effects, this card requires the fused form of Blue-Eyes White Dragon, Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, as a Tribute and has the rather unique effect of allowing the controller to choose which effects can affect it.
In the TCG, Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon was released in August 2004, before Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon, which was released in January 2006; until then, Blue-Eyes Shining was unplayable, even though it was legal for tournament use.
This card was Kaiba's special card for the movie, like Sorcerer of Dark Magic was Yugi's special movie card.
Also like Sorcerer of Dark Magic, this card has an additional effect in the movie which it lacks in the TCG/OCG.
This is one of the harder monsters to Summon due to the fact that three copies of Blue-Eyes White Dragon is needed to create the Blue-Eyes Ultimate Dragon needed to Summon this card, unless the user uses cards such as Future Fusion, Dragon's Mirror or a Fusion Substitute Monster.
Despite being called Blue-Eyes Shining Dragon, the original color of this monster's eyes was yellow.
This monster and Cyber End Dragon have similar blue orbs on their wings and chests.
Despite being a Dragon-Type monster, its appearance is more like a Machine-Type, similar to Blue-Eyes Solid Dragon or Number 107: Galaxy-Eyes Tachyon Dragon.
The German version of card mentions Blauäugiger Ultradrache in his card text, which was used in the German dub of the Yu-Gi-Oh! Anime instead of Blauäugiger Ultimativer Drache. Later this was fixed.
