Trivia
- "Idaho" is a codename used for Marketplace items related to A Minecraft Movie.
- The name and design of the cape is a reference to a quote from the film, wherein Steve recounts his origin story of "yearning for the mines",[3] which quickly turned into a meme before the movie had even been released.
