(Apparently I now fall into the category of 'older adult'-- yikes! when did that happen?).
What I want from a mini line (if there is one) is a wide vairety of characters. I want TONS of Muppets out of this. And I want them in forms we couldn't get in the regular line. I don't want Dare Devil Gonzo, I want Gonzo in some odd pose or outfit. And characters we don't get anywhere else, not just Muppets that don't make it into the regular figure line, but characters that don't make it into any merchandising. Hilda, Wayne and Wanda, Uncle Deadly (though I am still campaigning for an Uncle Deadly regular fig). Frackles would be great. I don't want to see a set with Kermit, Piggy, Gonzo, Animal and Fozzie in it-- if all the big guns come out in one, who will be able to carry the more unusual characters? I'd like to see Kermit in the white suit he wore on the Linda Ronstad (spelling?) episode. Maybe holding some crushed flowers. Fozzie with Chuckie. Sam in the outfit he worse on the Elton John outfit, perhaps eating his hat. Maybe the gargoyle from the Debbie Harry ep.
I'm not concerned about the price, personally. The price will reflect the level of detail and number of Muppets included. A largers number of smaller sets would likely end up costing more than fewer larger sets (and probably mean fewer obscure Muppets) but fewer larger sets would likely put the minis out of some people's price range.
