WotC has previewed a few Spelljammer monsters over on D&D Beyond, including Scavvers, Space Eels, Space Hamsters, Space Mollymawks, and Space Swine.

Scavvers are 10-ft space sharks, space eels are ethereal serpentine critters, the infamous space hamsters ar about the size of a bear, space mollyhawks are birds which travel in flocks, and space swine are winged boars. Yup, flying pigs.

Flying pig,
Flying pig,
Does whatever a flying pig does!

... if we ever encounter these in-game, I am certain that every player at the table will sing this.

I’ve never even picked up a Spelljammer book… are these for real? Or is it August Fools or something?

Spelljammer's a bit wacky, yeah.

They look dangerous. Will we be able to find a shelter from pigs on the wing?

I feel curiosity about the possible future playable races lineages: the xixchills (I can imagine a player revamping the biohacker class from Pathfinder), the rastipedes (what can these offer?), the drakon (they were there before the dragonborns were so popular) or the gromman (with a great potential in the hands of the right designers).
