As someone trying to hoard all of the werewolves and Nesquik bunnies that he
can, I'd have to say yes. I have a project that I need these all for, but
really can't progress untill I can get a bunch of those bunnies for a lot
cheaper than the sporadic eBay auction. 8?/

Not the same way. Perhaps all minifig scale but with a more whimsical
bent...fun elements, lots of rounded parts, maybe a bit Seussian. I'd like
that. Strange point: when the first rumors of the soccer software started,
I'd heard about the possibility of non-human characters. I started
speculating wildly on how great it would be if there were many animal masks
for minifigs a'la the Nesquik bunny. I'd still love to see this happen as well.

The previous thought of filling the Jack Stone/City Jr. slot with a Fabuland
replacement is correct. This would be the way to go, IMO.
