==Production Information==
*This special takes after the format and transitions created for [[Mixels Special]], a compilation of 17 shorts from the first season; however, that special did not broadcast in the United States, so this is considered by many fans to be the first half-hour special, and served as the formal reveal for most of the [[Crew|voice cast]] (as the shorts did not air with credits in English).
*A videocassette containing this special is archived in the Library of Congress catalog.<ref name="LCC"></ref>
**In the data provided to the catalog, it is given the production code of 300. However, previous information used by TV providers listed it as 200 instead.<ref name="CNService"></ref>
*When the [[Mixels (franchise)|Mixels]] franchise was first announced, it was stated that the length of the series could be extended for longer storylines, if and when needed;<ref>[http://www.animationmagazine.net/tv/mixel-invasion-begun/ The Mixel Invasion Has Begun! | Animation Magazine] ''("This month, CN will debut the first wave of Mixels as a collection of shorts, in various lengths, from 30 seconds to five minutes total. The shorts will then be formatted as a 22-minute special on the air and go into a series version.")'' ([http://web.archive.org/web/20190918164727/http://www.animationmagazine.net/tv/mixel-invasion-begun/ Archive])</ref> this being an example.
*This special features "paint-on" captioning, where the text in the closed captioning gradually appears over the course of the line. They additionally scroll up, a feature unique to "roll-up" captioning, which would be used again in [[Mixel Moon Madness]]. Other episodes and specials use the more standardized "pop-on" captioning format instead.
**This format is retained on Google Play; on Amazon, it is converted automatically so that only one line is on screen at a time.
*A short clip of Murp Romp was released prior to the special's airing, in anticipation of its release.<ref>[http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/tv_shows/mixels/video/murp-romp-clip.html Murp Romp - Mixels Videos - Cartoon Network] ([http://web.archive.org/web/20140821023431/http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/tv_shows/mixels/video/murp-romp-clip.html Archive])</ref> A trailer was also released on TV and on [[Cartoon Network|Cartoon Network's]] blog.<ref>[http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/blog/post/meet-more-new-mixels-in-the-half-hour-special-event Meet More New Mixels in the Half-Hour Special Event | Cartoon Network]</ref>

==Broadcast Information==
*This special includes, in the following order listed:
**[[Epic Comedy Adventure]] (highlight)
**[[Changing a Light Bulb]] (TV debut)
**[[Hot Lava Shower]]
**[[Mailman]]
**[[Wrong Colors]]
**[[Another Nixel]]
**[[Elevator]]
**[[Nixel "Mix Over"]]
**[[Murp Romp]] (highlight)
:Both of the new minisodes are 5-6 minutes in length.
*This is the first episode to air and premiere at a specific time (6:00-6:30 PM Eastern/Pacific, 5:00-5:30 PM Central) instead of during a commercial break and/or in between shows.
*This episode first aired as part of the "Labor Day Weekend Clarence and Friends Sleepover" event.
*This episode's airing revealed the Check It 3.0 (the branding used at the time by [[Cartoon Network]]) up next bumper for Mixels. Unlike most shows on the network, the spinning cube in the bumper simply contained a still image of [[Flain]] rather than an animation.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hi2lcZpZlbY</ref>
**In England, however, the show DID get an animated next ident featuring a Nixel blowing a raspberry <ref>https://youtu.be/oq1CL67yroU?si=o_-bi_ArpK5uTnuV</ref>
*Due to the lack of a special dedicated to [[Series 5]], this special and [[Mixel Moon Madness]] re-aired in Japan in [[June]] 13th and 25th, 2015, this was also done a few days earlier in England, on June 6th and 7th of the same year.<ref>[http://www.animetopics.com/news.php?news_seq=14706 AnimeFan News : カートゥーン ネットワーク × レゴ社、共同開発アニメ「ミクセル」新商品発売を記念し、６月より特番編成や新シリーズWave 5の放送を開始！] ([http://web.archive.org/web/20160410134230/http://www.animetopics.com/news.php?news_seq=14706 Archive])</ref><ref>[https://twitter.com/dom_o_rock/status/610271821598822400 Colby(コル���ー) / ども6 on Twitter: "「ミクセル スペシャル」 やっと観られた再放送！3期のフェスティバル、マジックショーの2つをメインに、1,2期の番組の間にも流れているショート数本を入れ、30分番組としてまとめたものだった！やっぱり長いストーリーで作って欲しいね！"] ([http://web.archive.org/web/20160410134241/https://twitter.com/dom_o_rock/status/610271821598822400 Archive])</ref>

==Trivia==
*The bumper in-between [[Nixel "Mix Over"|"Nixel Mix-Over"]] and "Murp Romp" includes a bunch of the ''Mixels'' logo falling on top of each other. This bumper originated from the beginning of some of the stop-motion videos from [[LEGO]].
*On September 3, 2014, both Epic Comedy Adventure and Murp Romp became available to watch from the website.<ref>[http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/tv_shows/mixels/video/the-biggest-and-most-epic-mixels-minisode-ever-clip.html The Biggest and Most Epic Mixels Minisode Ever - Mixels Videos - Cartoon Network] ([https://web.archive.org/web/20140906043446/http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/tv_shows/mixels/video/the-biggest-and-most-epic-mixels-minisode-ever-clip.html Archive])</ref><ref>[http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/tv_shows/mixels/video/murp-romp-minisode-clip.html Murp Romp Minisode - Mixels Videos - Cartoon Network] ([http://web.archive.org/web/20140821023431/http://www.cartoonnetwork.com/tv_shows/mixels/video/murp-romp-clip.html Archive])</ref> They are unavailable on Cartoon Network's website, but were retained on YouTube by them and LEGO until 2019.
*Strangely, in the Brazilian Portuguese version, most of the voices in the intro are dubbed, while the Series 3 tribes aren't.

==Broadcast==
This episode aired on August 31, 2014 directly following the Cartoon Network premiere of ''[[wikipedia:Stormbreaker (film)|Alex Rider: Operation Stormbreaker]]''. It is unknown how many viewers this episode garnered.

==Errors==
*During the end credits, [[Flurr]]'s name is misspelled as "Flur", and [[Kraw]] is absent.
*In the closed captioning:
**Flurr's name is misspelled as "Flur," similarly to the credits.
**Towards the end of [[Hot Lava Shower]], Vulk's lines are misattributed to Volectro.
**In [[Mailman]], Shuff's line, "Guys, I have rock and solid plan!" is misheard as "Guys, I have rockin' solid plan."
**In [[Murp Romp]], when the Spikels and Glorp Corp spot the [[Scorpi & Glurt Murp]], Glurt's name is misspelled as "Glort."
