Trivia
Beta version
The beta version of the game had much more graphic violence. An early trailer found as an extra feature in the VHS copy of the film
Small Soldiers depicted enemy soldiers spurting out blood when shot and being blown apart into chunky pieces from grenades or bazookas (with appropriate amounts of blood and gore).
