Long hair with a ponytail has been around quite awhile in black and red. I
have both kinds myself. It remains to be seen whether the new color will be
brown or blonde. I think Liam Neeson's hair is definitely more brown.

I don't think so. I think it would be great if TLG would make a little
break from their usual style with alien minifigs. It reminds me of the
original TV series Star Trek aliens. They were almost exclusively bipedal
humanoids who breathed oxygen and spoke perfect english. Boring, and
ultimately uninteresting because they're just not very different compared to
the supposed humans.
If TLG did make different shaped heads, I'd be really pleased. As long as
they fit on every torso, I won't complain.
