So Harry's "wild" head didn't get approved, huh? Which one have we been seeing in pictures (the wild Harry head the approved one)? What's different?

Hey, Ken, I'm happy to know that everything is going swimmingly over in China. Just enjoy the rest of your working vacation, since you bring so much happiness to us fans. Now you said that if we had any specific questions that we should post them.
1 You can't let us in on what the Series 4 playset will include just yet, and that's fair enough for now. However, can you say what each of the four regular figures will have as accessories, and what are those accessories? Will Dr. Strangepork have the MaMMA robot and lunchbox? Will Link have his magazine and ray gun? What will Rizzo and Sam Arrow come with?
2 You already addressed the issue of releasing pictures of Series 4 "in development" figures, so I won't ask you again. However, since you've seen what these figures will look like, I'd like your professional opinion on which custom project would be the likeliest to look the best.
a. Series 1 Miss Piggy customized into either Annie Sue or Spamela Hamderson.
b. Series 4 Miss Piggy customized into what her Series 1 counterpart should've looked like.
c. Series 1 Miss Piggy customized into what she should've originally look like.
3. Are your plans for Series 5-8 already set? I only ask you this one to know if you're still accepting ideas for future figures for the next few waves so that I can send them through the club's E-mail once I receive my package.
Thanks for all the great work you've done on this wonderful figure line.
The Count.

to try and take some of the pressure off Ken, i shall answer as best i can. if i am wrong, or if Ken wants to add something...THEN he can jump in...otherwise these threads get waaaay convoluted.
according to the FAQ ( http://www.muppetcentral.com/news/2002/tms_figures.shtml ) the accessories are:
Link Hogthrob (with Starhog Magazine, SwineTrek Model, Ray Gun and Cape)
Julius Strangepork (with MAMMA Robot, Dissolvitron and SwineTrek Lunchbox)
the others have not yet been announced, though a couple guesses can be made. Rizzo is going to be in Muppets Tonight form, so a headset is not out of the question, and there is a high probability of cheese.
Sam is a little tougher, but i personally would guess at least a tri-corner hat, and maybe a rolled up treasure map or a sword. i would also LOVE to see him come with a little rowboat and oars, but that's just me. i THINK it was Aerosmith who mentioned the idea of a "Ghost of Samuel Arrow" variant, which sounds like a good possibility as well.
hope that was helpful...
