A suggestion that is 7 months old, and on Reddit. Herobrine is about as old as Minecraft, and besides that.... No, I'm not going to discuss Herobrine. Anyways, pigmen are likely. I'd be happy if we could befriend them, and give them things.
Was he? I think the game had been out for at least a year before that.
I hope Thomas the Sheep comes back.

Allocators are no longer the future, we have Hoppers now. I still like them, though.
I'm more intrigued by this 'incredibly old suggestion that keeps popping up'. Colored lights??
Since Dinnerbone says the mob is new I'm guessing it's not the Pigman because we've known about the Pigman skin for a long time now. My guess would be Wearwolf, Vampire (unlikely), Mummy (also unlikely because everyone's been suggesting that one), or some absolutely new utility mob.

Under no circumstances do I want villagers building ugly little houses in my world. That's my job. Link Removed
I hope it's a pigman riding Thomas the sheep, that removes your hunger bar and says "congrats everything is back the way it was a year ago".
Then, every single block and mob from after 1.7.3 explodes with a power 15 explosion, lights everything on fire, and suddenly every single enemy ALWAYS KNOWS WHERE YOU ARE.
Also, the Jungle biome is replaced with pits into the Nether that spew ghasts.
When you die, it prints on the screen "&e0", and the buttons read "long ago, the map was deleted on your death."
"old but popular Minecraft suggestion that keeps popping up now and then..."
its gotta be pigmen. that description could only be pigmen. maybe he could nail a few targets at a time and make a rare island biome with pigman villages in the middle of the ocean.
i was hoping for dragons soon, but this sounds fantastic... dragons are next, though.

I hate to break it to all of you, but from his tweets it seems like he is making an entirely new mob. If he was adding Pigmen, then he wouldn't need to make a new skin since one has existed for a long time now.
2 or 3 people on this thread have suggested Dragons and Pigmen, have you been playing the same game that I am? Don't you remember that there ARE Dragons and Pigmen already, the latter being Zombified of course.
Well pigman (Normal) and Red Dragon (Not Ender one) is kinda planned mobs...
I've never heard of that, then again I don't follow jens and nathan THAT closely. It would really suck if they did add those though, I for one, was against the idea of Dragons, I play minecraft to get away from those crap games, but in the end (no pun) I really like the ender dragons.
I still say it's a zombie testificate(with tattered robes) just redone as a new mob instead of a normal zombie with a testificate head.
I guarantee that isn't the case. Not only is that not a new mob (it wouldn't require that much code), but let's look at the evidence:
* Dinnerbone is making it. I'm not sure if he does modelling for the game or not, but it would be very easy to just use a humanoid model that already exists. On top of that, there is already a texture for regular Pigmen in the files of the game. Also easier.
* It is something that purportedly should be clothed but isn't. This means it likely is not an quadripedal animal. Red dragons are unlikely, and don't count on them being in 1.4. Unless Jeb decides he really wants to add them, they're not getting in the game.
Yes, and we know that he is working on zombie testificates.
There are also models for testificates.
Yep, testificates aren't quadripedal and they should be clothed. If he's changing testificate clothing, to tattered robes for instance, then he may have naked testificates running around since he hasn't finished with them yet.
But, unlike the pigman texture, which, by the way, IS naked at the present moment, there are no naked textures for villagers. And yes, there are villager zombies. But they are already finished. They are the same mob as the zombie. Get the 12w32a snapshot, and spam zombie eggs. Occasionally you'll see a zombie villager pop up.
Zombie pigmen wear loinclothes, and with 1.4, armor. And, Jeb has stated that he will eventually add Red Dragons to the game, since Notch promised them, but he hasn't found a good way to do it yet.

A NEW mob isn't a planned mob. The so called "Red Dragon" had been removed and the enderdragon took it's skin. Pigmen are only there to hold up Zombie pigmen.
Also, If a mob is new, that means no varients of it exists in minecraft.

Other than the fact that it doesn't wear clothes
I am ninja'd far too often.

yeah sure
Nether villagers maybe? Pigmen in Nether Brick houses?

...but that's just like, my opinion, man.
