I was reasonably appalled to discover that the villains of one of my
urban 
fantasy series, the "Borrible" books, were based on these Wombles, who
never 
made it over here to the US.  The "Rumbles" were discribed as these
horrible 
rat-like humanoids, and the protagonists killed them with gleeful
abandon.  I 
had no idea that they were slaughtering beasts who were essentially
muppets....

Hmmm...anyone for Full Metal Muppets at next years' GZGECC?
