Numbers are complete guesses but I'm trying to be realistic...

Lens name: SMC Pentax-FA* 400mm f/4.0 ED IF
Length: 300mm (not including hood)
Diameter: 120mm (not including hood)
Weight: 2500g
Filter Thread: 49mm (rear)
Other: Focus limit switch, AF/MF clutch, bayonet-mounting hood, minimum 
focus distance 2 metres, f/4.0~f/45, rotating tripod collar.

Basically a faster FA*400mm f/5.6 with a focus limiter added.

--------------------------------------------

Lens name: SMC Pentax-67 65mm f/2.8
Length: 75mm
Diameter: 90mm
Weight: 550g
Filter Thread: 77mm
Other: Built-in tulip hood, f/2.8~f/22.

I'm glad you didn't specify 35mm format only :)
This focal length would fit nicely in a kit with the 90mm f/2.8 (the 75mm 
f/2.8 is a little close for my liking).

--------------------------------------------

Lens name: SMC Pentax-M 1:1.4 35mm
Length: 62mm
Diameter: 65mm
Weight: 420g
Filter Thread: 58mm
Other: M-series

My third choice is this prototype.  Runner-up for third is a 35mm f/4 
rectilinear for 6x7.  Now that would be expensive.
