Anecdotes
On making the movie, director Joe Dante recalled "originally I was told to make an edgy picture for teenagers, or when the sponsor tie-ins came in the new mandate was to soften it up as a kiddie movie. Too late as it turned out, and there are elements of both approaches in there. Just before release, it was purged of a lot of action explosions."

Gaffes
When Archer looks at the other Gorgonites on his box, Troglacon is shown after the Gorgonites rebuilt him. He should look the way Erwin designed him.

Citations
Major Chip Hazard: Are you scared? We're all scared. You'd have to be crazy not to be scared.

Générique farfelu
The soldiers are credited as "The Original Dirty Dozen" and the Gorgonites are credited as "Spinal Tap". Many of the character voices actually come from those two movies.

Autres versions
The DVD features some deleted scenes:
Alan meets the principal of his new school, who tells him he doesn't like troublemakers.
An extended version of the scene where the dish technician tells Phil a lot more about the way the dish works and why the tree has to be moved.
Some added dialogue for Stuart and Irene about their old home Chicago right before Phil starts to saw off the branch.
The Gorgonites search Alans encyclopedia for Gorgon. Instead of their home they find the daughter of the Greek God Phorcys.
A discussion between Alan, Christy and their parents about what happened.
Phil and Stuart discover that Alan and Christy get away through a window.
The Toys discover Christys parents, her brother and Irene in the storeroom and ask for "any last requests".

Here's why it's good.

When "Small Soldiers" came out, it was right after back-to-back school shootings (plus the murder of Phil Hartman), so there was some controversy about having a movie where toys get violent. But this movie is actually quite good. You see, it's not some ridiculous, rah-rah military movie; it sides with the Gorgonites (the soldiers' adversaries), showing how - whether or not they win or lose - they always remain supportive of each other.

As for the cast members, this is a Joe Dante movie, so Dick Miller and Robert Picardo get supporting roles. In this case, they play a delivery man and clean room technician, respectively. Phil Hartman is probably the funniest cast member, playing the ultimate suburban consumer (he wants to remove his neighbor's tree to make room for a satellite dish). All in all, this is definitely a movie worth seeing. As far as I remember, Joe Dante always does a good job.
