There actually
is a thread on the subject, though I'm not surprised you didn't find it with the rather generic title of "Crossovers". Never the less, it is
HERE.
I'm still waiting for
Munchkins vs. Oompa-Loompas.
As I detailed in that earlier thread...
On the surface it may seem like a close call with evenly matched, colorfully outfitted lil' opponents, but upon reasoned examination the smart money has gotta be on the Oompas.
Most important to consider, the Ompah-Loompas have the diabolically insane and eccentric billionaire William Wonka to bankroll their war against the Munchkins. Because of this easy and overwhelming military and technical superiority, coupled with the fact that they seem to have no trouble following orders even when it means pain and suffering for small children, I am confident they could not only defeat the residents of that bright corner of Oz, but bring candy-powered annihilation the likes of which has never been seen. Essentially they would bomb the starting point of the Yellow Brick Road right back to the Stone Age…assuming Oz had such an equivalent period of history (I'm sure a great Darwinian study could be made following the fossil record to horses of different colors). The Oompas would wield not only superior conventional warfare, but the Wonka factory would be busy manufacturing its special brand of chemical and biological agents. No matter how stalwart the Lollipop Guild may be, they won’t do much good as inflated blueberries. The only hope I see for the Munchkins is to form some sort of unholy alliance with the vested flying monkeys, who without the Wicked Witch as their employer/overlord may well be roaming the countryside like masterless Ronin, and could conceivably help defend Munchkinland in an Ozian version of
The Seven Samurai/
The Magnificent Seven. While tactical glass elevators would still give the Oompas overall air superiority, winged chimp sorties could go a long way to leveling the battleground. A now courageous Lion might lend a paw as well, but ultimately I imagine the Oompa-Loompas would prevail decisively in combat.
The only real question would be, does Wonka have a plan to secure the peace somewhere over the rainbow?
