Can you share a link for the trailer you speak of. I did a quick search for the E3 trailer, watched two and didn't see a diplo in either.

I don't think that exact model is used in game. The art work change between this trailer and the release version. There are similar dipos in game

A more useless thread without pics you cannot find

I've seen that type of Diplo in game. Maybe not with those stripes, but the head is common. The problem I find (and its a known bug) is when I adopt a diplo like that, the first time its summoned, it becomes a younger version with a stubby neck. Very annoying.

The animal in the trailer is far too large to be supported in the game. There is a difference between a promo trailer and a running game, . This difference - and other things not in the game based on the trailers - did make a huge *storm of threads at game release.

How can you tell how large that animal is in the promo? That looks like a 6.7m size diplo with slender neck, no fins, and small head with no funny hats. I'm pretty sure I've seen that ingame, but didn't bookmark it.

Then you should look more close to the trailer to see the proportions...
In-game animals can be up to 6m in high as for their descriptions, more than that the entire animation would be messed-up, that's why there aren't really big animals. There are plenty of animals like in the trailer, but not that big, and surely not moving like in the trailer. A trailer - and this trailer in particular - is a buying-sweetener, a fake construct put together, nothing else, keep that in mind.

At game release the reality was that one:

In the years after it got better but still far away from the trailer:

Because in the original video (which was 100% fake, non-game footage) a character was moving past the diplo, which made it easy to gauge its size.

After they were taken to court and forced to defend themselves against charges of blatant false-advertising amid an active campaign of intentionally-misleading marketing headed by Sean Murray using the aforementioned prerendered video (which was found to be one of several used for that purpose), the original video was remade with the game's actual engine (although still prerendered) to show that the game could technically create such a creature if the right RNG combo aligned.

Can you provide evidence that they were taken to court, because I live in the UK and know nothing about this?

This is the one I have bookmarked (6.7m):
