No. The new main "baddie" looks like a cross between Baron von Baron and
Ogel (Ogel from the Alpha Team II/Underwater series)... you can still call
him Mr. Hates. Baron Ogel is what I call him.

It looks like 4 figures (but its hard to tell)... Johnnie Thunder, Mr. Hates/
Baron Ogel, it looks like 2 other non-character minifigs (I can't tell for
sure and I don't remember what they were on the box).

No. Those are the names I made up...except maybe the Maharaja Palace and the
Trouble on Everest (I think those are the official names). I guess we'll have
to wait for them to be available from Shop@Home.
