Product Information

Irwin: What if this kid's telling the truth? We can't have toys out on the market that may be dangerous.

For the film's effects shots, Dante stated that the original idea was to use mostly puppetry, using puppets provided by Stan Winston. However, Dante said that while shooting, it was "simpler and cheaper" to use computer-generated imagery (CGI) after the scenes had been shot, so the film is "one-third puppetry and the rest CGI." [4] Dante believes that the studio had hopes that Small Soldiers would be the start of a film series.

Gil Mars: These hideous, ugly freaks-- these guys are the enemy. And our guys have to seek 'em out and vaporize 'em. As the parents meet and begin arguing about what has happened, Larry and Irwin of the toy company arrive in response to Alan's earlier phone call. They have learned about the dangers of the X-1000 chip (and a possible weakness) from its designer, and are trying to circumvent any lawsuits. Gentleman, if war is hell then let's give em hell. We didn't start this war but we're damn sure gonna end it!General Ripper: Chip Hazard. He's obsessed with exterminating the Gorgonites, since that's what he was programmed to do: wipe out the enemy.

Bait-and-Switch: When Ralph (Robert Picardo), the X-1000 chip's creator, mentions that there was a problem with the chips, Irwin and Larry immediately assume it's that said chips caused the weapons they were inserted into to rebel. In actuality, the problem was that the chips were vulnerable to Electro-Magnetic Pulses, and the government didn't want to fork out the extra cash for the necessary shielding. All right, ladies.

Is a Crapshoot: Subverted. The chips enhance programming that is already present, so the militant Commando Elites become bloodthirsty, monstrous warriors and the weaker Gorgonites become cowards who only hide from battle. (They're obeying their programming to the letter; the fault actually lies in the guy who programmed them and had no idea the chips would do that.)
