Just thumbing through the PH2....I'd speculate that in DQ or BW we'll likely see:

Displacer Beast Skeleton (didn't Shoe say we'd likely see a new Displacer Beast in an upcoming set?)
Luminous Assassin (now that clear plastic is in use....)

I'd also love to see minis of some of the Iconics based on the artwork in the PH2 (most notably Hennet, Gimble, and the Marshal complete with standard).

Personally, I think we're more likely to see a Fiendish/Feral/etc. Displacer Beast before we see an undead one. I mean, tentacles don't normally have bones...

The only thing that would differentiate (that I can think of) a D-Beast from a Big Cat would be the extra legs...

A Zombie D-Beast? Ugh. Maybe, but still "ugh".

Give us another Rare or Uncommon live one, then go freaky.

I'd prefer uncommon. They certainly are not rare-worthy based on their attack/damage/hps or conceal 11 -- even with a template.

Make it uncommon so everyone can finally get them and call it a day (for a sertain number sets, of course)!

I'd really love to see a Human or Elf Duskblade for CG. I've constructed sample stats for them, and they would actually do quite well.

I think we are likely to see a Dragon Shaman, Knight, and Dusk Blade in some upcoming sets.

I don't know. I mean I've got five of the little buggers already (one Chainmail, four Harbinger)...I've already traded one away or else I'd be up to my eyeballs (OK, maybe not quite "eyeballs").

If *I* don't need one, nobody else should, right? [)]

I wonder how many Pack Lords I'll snag in my WDQ...Hopefully, I'll get at least two.

Scary...I've got 4 Chainmail and 1 Harbinger. We're like evil, inverted twins or something [:O][:D]

I'm thinking I'd like two packlords to go with the pack. One would suffice, but they look so darn nifty.[:D]
I'm contemplating picking up a few more Chainmail D-Beasts, but I'd rather get a new uncommon version in Blood War or Unhallowed.

Maybe get a Dragon Shaman next set, since we seem to always get a few peices in the set after the one they'd be perfect for heh. So maybe, just maybe we can see what a Dragon Shaman can do in skirmish =)

I must be the good-looking one...[}:)]

I just finally saw that the rarity of the Pack Lord is Uncommon--I don't know that I believe that, but it'd be OK if it were true.

After getting the Pack Lord in WotDQ, I really think a normal large uncommon one is inevitable. Hope its fiendish and will come out in Blood War.

An undead one (in Unhallowed) would be fine as well, but in that case a zombie please and not a skeletal one. A zombie can proxy for a live one, and a skeletal DB would be identical to a dire lion/tiger skeleton.

No, the hallowed Displacer Beast must remain elusive.
