Instead of getting gizmo, billy gets the full set of the Commando elite.
The teacher gets gizmo, and a few days later, we get stripe and company.
Chip Hazard decides that Billy is worth saving, so they go to war.

Haven't seen Gremlins, but the Commando Elite are a bunch of demented McGyvers and a real credible threat to humans. They've got flaming tennis-ball launchers, full-auto nail guns, helicopters, all sorts of stuff.
How much prep time do the CE get? They did all that stuff in an hour or two

On the other hand, any gremlin can create an entire army by finding a swimming pool. Hell, Stripe manages to do it in the first movie after his first army is burned alive in a movie theater.
They do show some ability with technology, but it's mostly the fact that any access to water can make a bajillion of them that would ruin the Commandos.
If we get into Gremlins 2 territory, we'll also have the ridiculous mutant gremlins, though I don't think the OP intended for us to have those.

True, but the CE also began to build their own army with access to just a girls room.
In the end this is actually a really difficult scenario to call. With adequate resources (A tool store, a toy shop and maybe a mechanics) the CE should be able to take this easily. Moreso if they discover the whole water = more Gremlins issue. "Ok boys. Time to shut off the town's water supply" (Not that it should help a great deal, IIRC it was snowing in the first Gremlins.)

It would be awesome if the Commando Elite found a way to make more soldiers, but not very likely.

Have you seen the movie? It was incredibly easy for them to do.

But they... did that thing.
That is a thing, that they did.

I thought I remembered a fixed number of Commandos making a bunch of vehicles and stuff, but I don't remember them building more commandos. They would need those super-secret military chips to do that.
Then again, it's been about a decade since I saw SS.

They build an entire army out of dolls and are able to produce large quantities of their own chips as well.

They could use the chip of a dead commando to make zombie Barbies, but they didn't seem to be reproducing the chip. Just using it to jump-start the zombie barbies, somehow. They were seemed like vaguely intelligent zombie-frankenstein barbies, though, so it's not a huge problem.

Yeah, it was about as soft as Sci Fi gets but either way they were making more commandos.

You should. It gets a bit of flak but it was my favorite movie of my childhood and I still think its a pretty good flick still.

I don't think the zombie barbies where as good as an actual CE. Still, nothing wrong with expendable
plastic shields.

with prep i give this to the ce. they find a toy store and a normal garage and create weapons of super death.
not to mention that it stated that they were always learning and evolving http://smallsoldiers.wikia.com/wiki/X-1000_Chip
no prep it go's to the gremlins most likely

The gadget re purposing is nice, but how does breaking the 4th wall help? Do they ever do anything with such awareness or knowledge

I'd give it to the Gremlins, they are bigger and can replenish their number much faster, given the Commando Elite needed to pick apart dead comrades to make zombie Barbies and ultimately the microchips are gonna run out.
Still, it'd be a fight worth seeing.

They used one guy to turn an entire bedroom filled with dolls alive. It seems like a pretty infinite process.

If given prep time, the commandos can find a toy store and cone up with some neat "kill you" things. But without prep, the massive size difference would quickly destroy them.
They need to make a small soldiers 2, seriously

Ha! Theres a laser tag next to Toys R Us where I live. Then the commandos would arm themselves with laser rifles.

It looks like they're installing chips into their chest.
Also does no one else love that the munitions chip that was made for guiding missiles for some reason has von neuman protocols built into it?
