A ton of these are very specific variants of the True Giants. Fizban's didn't bring back Yellow Dragons, Brown Dragons, Mercury Dragons, and others similar to those. I feel like this would be the equivalent of doing that.Already in 5e.Granted. Those could be good.Already in the 5e Monster Manual. And merrow are mutated merfolk, not Giantkin. Not a Giant, but a 4-armed Gorilla.Very setting-specific. Are they really going to put something like these in a Fizban's-style monster book?This is just 29 versions of the Troll. D&D 5e already has some of those. And the rest . . . are just too much.Not really a giant, more of a Hobgoblin-Ghoul than a Giant. No reason why it would appear in this kind of book.I get that there have been a lot of random variants of Trolls and the True Giants in D&D's history. Dragons had even more, and barely any of them made it into Fizban's. I don't think that they'd spend a whole book filled with a bunch of trolls and true-giant variants that no one was asking for.</blockquote>
