I'm ok with it personally. Its a bit different for me after all. Plus it could be a Fanged Beast within the game, but not canon obviously. I highly doubt Capcom would let it be in World's Free Hunt after all, just keep it Quest Exclusive (and even then, only in an Event Quest, where it makes more sense). But I Know what you mean Cotton.

On a side note, I wonder what other Colabs they may plan soon, with originals and returning monsters in the mix too, just to balance it out.
