I disagree--Australia itself was half the prison. ;) Not much chance of
someone coming back from THAT far away!

"Appropriately scary?" I think the European minifigs are scary enough, given
that they're coming to subjugate people in their own lands. Perhaps they should
be "appropriately indignant?" I'd like to see more Islanders, though--that was
a good theme. However, if you want to come forward of the early 18th century,
they'd just be regular ol' yellowfaces.
