The ultimate Mungo figure wishlist

If Mungo Baobab does someday get made into a modern figure, I think it's safe to say that it will only happen once. There will be no redo's or updates on this one, so Hasbro should do a bang up job the first time around. That being said, here's my recommendations for what a potential figure of Mungo Baobab should look like.
BASIC APPEARANCE
The figure should be wearing Mungo's merchant fleet uniform. The alternate costume's that he wore would be nice, but like I said, if there is a figure of Mungo, there will only be one. This is the obvious choice. 
The figure should also come with the bag seen above. Mungo was often seen carrying this slung over his shoulder.

ACCESSORIES
1. Mungo's Seed Blaster
This blaster fires out seeds that immediately grow into an entangling vine on impact. 

2. Droid head
Mungo wore a droid disguise in The Great Heep, so while there may never be a figure of a disguised Mungo,  it would be nice to at least include an alternate head so we can pretend that he is just starting to put on his disguise.

3. Green Cloak
Mungo and C-3PO stole these cloaks in The Frozen Citadel to use as disguises. The addition of a cloak would give a Mungo figure an instant alternate outfit.

And there you have it! Now hopefully fans and Hasbro will get on board so we can finally get our Mungo Baobab figure!
