Two things:
1) Do you mean Wooly Mammoth?
2) This has been the leading theory since Preview X went up. | |

| The big questions are 1) what's riding it? and 2) what size is it?
Definately some sort of proboscidian mammal.

| | I was hoping for a Frost Giant on a Mammoth, but since it's probably not a huge (slots are gone?) the Dwarf idea might be right... (making it a large?) | |

| | Judging by the look of the base and the fact that standard elephants are huge, I'd say this has to be some kind of giant on a mammoth or elephant. My guess is frost giant on war mammoth. | |

| Hello,
I think a giant of some sort on a Mammoth or Elephant is most likely.
I know that the possibility is mentioned in Frostburn, but not illustrated.
Five more days and we will know.
Cheers [:)] | |

| | I'm with Omand. I think it's a "Frost Giant on Dire Wooly Mammoth." And it will have that exact 6-word figure name, following the example of the "Sorcerer on Black Dragon". | |

Your math perplexes me....[?]
Sorcerer on Black Dragon is 4 words/7 syllables. Maybe I'm missing something....
If Omand's prediction is correct I'd assume it would be titled "Mounted Frost Giant (Jarl)." Jarl is optional [:D] | |

| Sesame Street theme....I love it!!! You know oscar the grouch would have some sort of "difficult" and Mr. Snuff could be invisible or something.....at least in my days of Sesame Street he was imaginary. I understand now everyone sees him....what a scam!!! [)]
As to X #16. I hope that it is a frost giant on big wooly pachyderm with the abacus of doom.....[:o)]
Regardless of what it is carrying, the cool factor will be a big deal... | |

| OMG, this one's being posted tomorrow!
I was talking with Millygoat and we pretty conclusively figured out what it is. If you look at the silouhette right, it's clear that it's a Wooly Mammoth.
And then you can see a Medium White Dragon riding the Mammoth. And a Kobold riding the dragon, and a Mephit riding the Kobold, and then a Stirge riding the Mephit.
I'm not sure if there's a wizard's toad familiar riding the Stirge or not. It's hard to tell from just the outline. | |

Bah, we differ on one critical point though. I say the stirge is fiendish, Benni claims that it's normal. I mean, why would a normal stirge be riding a mephit!?! It's lunacy. It's obviously fiendish. | |

Then you take it all and throw it in a deep fryer. It's the ultimate turducken [:P]
For the record, Millygoat is right. Who ever heard of a non-fiendish stirge riding a mephit [?] | |
