[QUOTE="BB Shockwave, post: 9668915, member: 6799257"] I still dislike the new 2025 Dragon designs, which the book partially uses... I say partially as it seems they are reusing old art from 3E and other sources too. But one thing does make me happy - the Sapphire Dragon looks exactly like in Fizban's. That gives me hope they will not update the Gem Dragons and we can still get proper miniatures of them. I mean Wizkids still has not done Sapphire Wyrmlings or a young sized Emerald and adult sized Amethyst Dragon. Why not, she has a lot of free time on her hands in Avernus. And she has 5 heads, one can dictate letters or write them with mage hand while the others give orders to her minions. :) She also has avatars and aspects to do her hands-on business in the material plane... like masquerading as Takhisis on Krynn. :) I know 2E had the Lung Dragons, but I cannot find where exactly they were present. Probably in the Kara-Tur Monster Manual appendix? And yes, the Gold was still wingless in AD&D 2E. [ATTACH=full]406495[/ATTACH] Though I think by the end of 2E, art started to portray them with wings and proper quadrupedal bodies without the super long and thin asian look. Ah yeah, I know. It was in the short-lived Council of Wyrms setting. [ATTACH=full]406496[/ATTACH] I also vaguely recall that some art showed them with big hair-like manes and again, with wings. Maybe it was some of the Dragonlance books? [/QUOTE]
