Mayor Munchkins (also known as Mayor Roegiers) is a character exclusive to the PC versions of Mario is Missing!, appearing as the fictional mayor of Bombay, India. Like all other mayors in the game, they contact Luigi via videophone upon his arrival in the city, as well as after all of the artifacts in the area have been returned to their rightful locations. In the first call, Mayor Munchkins states that the entire town is pillaged by keepsake-crazed Koopas.

Once all of the artifacts have been recovered, Luigi receives a second call from Mayor Munchkins, who thanks him for saving the city from the Koopas and wishes him luck on the rest of his adventure.

Both versions depict Munchkins as a woman with different appearances.

Notes

• Mayor Roegiers is named after the technical producer of the Macintosh version of Mario is Missing!, Marc J. Roegiers.

Quotes

• "Thanks for coming, Luigi. You're talking to Mayor Munchkins. We're in desperate straits here, as you can see from the headlines I've sent to your videophone thing. This entire town is being pillaged by keepsake-crazed Koopas. Once the landmarks go, who knows what could be next. Playgrounds? Palaces? You must collar the Koopas, collect the artifacts and backtrack until they're all correctly put back."
• "Luigi. You've saved our city from the Koopas, and the people are grateful. Thank you, good luck and good bye! And say hi to Mario when you find him!"
