==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 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.
**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.
*When the Mixels franchise was first announced, it was stated that the length of the series could be extended for longer storylines, if and when needed;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.") (Archive) 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.Murp Romp - Mixels Videos - Cartoon Network (Archive) A trailer was also released on TV and on Cartoon Network's blog.Meet More New Mixels in the Half-Hour Special Event | Cartoon Network

*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.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hi2lcZpZlbY

==Trivia==
*The bumper in-between "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.The Biggest and Most Epic Mixels Minisode Ever - Mixels Videos - Cartoon Network (Archive)Murp Romp Minisode - Mixels Videos - Cartoon Network (Archive) 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==
