Glavenus = Abiorugu Ripoff

Astalos = Rathalos Ripoff

Mizutsune = Royal Ludroth Ripoff

Gammoth = Seltas Queen Ripoff

Not as inspiring? Berukyurosu has the smart AI, Rukodiora is a friggin magnet dragon, Akura Vashimu is not only a badass scorpion but also uses crystalization (blastblight before blastblight), Orugaron's are wolves, Pariapuria has the meat gimmick, Baruragaru is a vampire leviathan with unique abilities comparable to Mizutsune.

Your opinion only applies to few frontier monsters.
