  • Very cool trailer. New, but nostalgic at the same time. Attention to detail is amazing, from the background set pieces, to the way the characters move like real action figures come to life. A lot of variety in the figures too, my personal favourite is the winged Necronite with the glowing claw and little minion creatures. Toys didn't seem this cool when I was a child, lol. And it's impressive how much emotion is brought out of "plastic" faces. I could tell there was some serious history between the two main characters on the first watch. And THEN I paused and read the back of the packaging in the box. Serious kudos to the team behind this. Excellent work. Comadran Studios seems to be a games company, so no movie, but will be interesting to see what style of game this turns out to be.

    That ninja that came out of the cop car was insane. The idea of the sword sheath turning into a gun is amazing

    I am so glad people haven’t forgotten Small Soldiers. It still remains one of my favorite childhood movies
  • I really do hope this gets a greenlight. This new style and motion would do the original justice.
  • Whatever this is: TV Series, movie, game, shorts, TOY LINE; as a fan of the original, I'm there, and bringing my kids.

    I love how you guys kept the idea of the monsters/"bad guys" being ironically more human than the "good guys". That's one of the things i loved a lot about Small Soldiers
  • That moment when the necronite leader placed his hand on the soldier's, just to be attacked through the glass and the Necronite leader gave her a sad look, almost like saying "I'm sorry it has to be this way". Its amazing what can be expressed with so little facial expressions.
  • @marsfeathers
    The sadness in his eyes when she refuses to see him as someone equal!!! The emotion conveyed in just a tilt of the head!!!! This is just incredible 🤩!!!
  • The one small soldier with the katana was smooth af with the transition
  • @tooclosetokyle
    The one Nekronite that spread their wings and then little dudes came out as sort of shields was dope as hell.
  • @toanuva6178
    I like how the Necrons design looks generally more opposing like these guys could be seen as a threat over their cuddly forefathers. And the leader has a cool stoic vibe to him
  • I like the small touches in this proof of concept trailer. Like on the box for the main Necronite guy says that he is Ray’s brother (Ray is the pov toy in the trailer) and kinda explains what happened to him.
  • @Oniqueen
    Small Soldiers is so underrated and it’s so amazing to see this concept being honourable to the original yet unique to itself. But also, Ooooh there some tension between the Nekron leader and Ray that I am alll here for, I really want to see that explored in detail.
  • @skunkpelz
    The way they actually move like toys is incredible. I can tell that was no easy feat, the rigging is honestly impressive.

    You've made all of us old chaps that loved Small Soldiers as kids, and grew up with it in the back of our memories like a forgotten box of beloved toys in the attic, very happy with this! The sheer love and animation skill involved to make it feel exactly in the spirit of the original movie... dear god. "Proof of concept" and it's already a work of art.
  • @JTauruian09
    Would love to see this turned into a Small Soldiers sequel! Maybe even do some call backs to some of the original cast and creatures from the 1st!
  • @JarharaJaiArik
    I absolutely love how even the art style of the characters on the box arts and cardboard standees matches the original movie
  • @Bobby90
    Makes me want a Small Soldiers 2 movie more than a game.
  • I LOVE the small bit of lore we got on the back of his box, knowing that he is ray's brother makes that moment so much more impactful

    Imagine playing with your bionicle and the thing came to life and start fighting each other
