Dale Carman had previously directed the 2004 film GI Joe: Valor vs. Venom which had a similar plot to Action Man: X-Missions. Many CGI character models from Valor vs. Venom were re-used in X-Missions but for entirely different characters.
Release
The film was released direct to DVD and VHS and was sold commercially unlike its predecessor which was given away free with Action Man Comics and News of the World. Woolworths stores gave away free stickers with the purchase of the DVD. The film was rated PG.
Sequel
A third film titled Action Man: The Gangrene Code was released direct to DVD in 2006 along with a new wave of toys but only in Mexico (where Action Man was hugely popular). Therefore, the film is only available in Spanish.
