I thought that the MM made some admitions of alot of the good Monsters in 1st edition. some of my personal favorits, such as the "false beholder" and "quickling" were left out. to make up for it though, they did put in Gem Dragons and Werms. It was a long overdue adition to the pitifuly incompleat MM

With 136 new monsters, the second edition of Monster Manual is anything but light reading. The creatures range from undead horrors,such as the banshee and crimson death, to to mundane animals such as bats, mastadons, and titanic frogs. Also included are creatures for those epic-level adventures, such as the corpse tearer and the hellfire wyrm, and psionic challenges like the Gem Dragons. From a DM's perspective, this book has already added some variety to our campaign setting, and therefore pushed the characters' limits to new heights. Although it still lacks some of my personal favorites from 2E, namely the living wall, it does introduce a new system for creating new monsters to challenge any party.
