That's pretty cool artwork. Doesn't remotely resemble a troglodyte, but it's still a nice pic

But then it will always come down to this, as I have come to know creatures by the 2nd and 3rd edition conceptualizations, and anything different just wont be the same (so to speak).

It looks ok with me...

It's not anything new.

Although I still kinda like 2nd edition artwork more than 3e... Like the god summoned monster, tarrasque. Or the original ogre, kobold, kender, should I go on? This is nothing new. Every edition makes major artwork changes.

Just a simple traveler from the swamps of Dagobah otherwise known as Florida. Also known as Hurricane Alley!
I always try to send through delivery confirmation, and I expect the same. It's only 55 cents extra, so it's just a little more than a pay phone call, so just do it for the Kai. I prefer to trade with people in the US and Canada, sorry everyone else.

Cool pic but doesn't it seem like the new 4e art is going the way of WoW?

IMO trogs should have a cave man feel.

I guess I won't buy any new Trogs then, I'll have to stick with what I have.

Too dinosaur like for my tastes.
As is, the leg structure is all wrong, knee bends back like a humanoid, not forwards like a raptors.
And the torso should be more horizontal
Personnally I'd prefer it to look like a veloceraptor with a club.
And then they could call it a "Cave-dwelling-raptor" not a "Troglodyte".

Don't worry about the current metagame. It doesn't matter if it's ugly, bad, or the best ever. In 2 years time, set rotation will ban everything.

I should have said anthropomorphized dinosaur.

It's important that monsters be structured so that we can make costumes out of them for humans to wear.

Here's another pic of the new Trog that I like even less. Maybe he's a friend of Barry Bonds....

Not sure I like either the (presumably) gargoyle or the trog from that picture. The gargoyle looks psionic (third eye) and the troglodyte looks like a neanderthal hybridized with a dinosaur.

I didn't quote the article the pic came from, but the green thing is some sort of mind control gem put in by some evil wizardish mastermind who evidently isn't smart enough to realize that it would make them ridiculously easy to target and see from a distance in the Underdark.
