Even the Gorgonites hold their own towards the end, and realise it’s better for them to fight than hide. If you’ve seen the movie, you will know the Commandos are a bunch of ruthless bastards. Like what seems to be in every post lately, this is the part where I take some issue with things. Before I look at the set, here are the accompanying micro figures, Chip Hazard, Butch Meathook, Slamfist and Archer. The best one was the 2 in 1 attack zone.Īs you can see by the box, it’s actually two playsets in one, either the kitchen combat site or the garage battlefield. I had a bunch of the figures as a kid, but it was the nineties, so naturally there were a few micro playsets released based on the movie. It’s pretty dark for a kids movie, kind of like a post watershed Toy Story and although not as good as Gremlins, it’s still worth chomping popcorn to. Like Gremlins, it features lots of scenes with peoples homes getting trashed and wanton destruction. Both factions accidentally end up with military grade computer chips inside them during manufacture, and the Commando Elite will not stop until the peace loving Gorgonites are destroyed. Directed by Joe Dante (whose former hits included both Gremlins movies) the story is about a kid who ends up in ownership of a set of ‘Gorgonite’ action figures which are supposed to be interactive toys who battle with the Commando Elite. If you haven’t seen Small Soldiers, I’m not going to implore you to go and watch it but it is a fun movie. I don’t think I’ve really mentioned Small Soldiers on here before which is somewhat of a travesty considering how important the film was to me as a kid.
