Amusingly, my mother watched the episode (a fan of the series) and abhorred this one. Her main statement being “he looks like he came from 70’s knock off cartoon.”

The what in the where
Yeah, they only happened in season 1 with Red and red no2 aka “green”.

Correction: that’s a classic medieval dragon

Okay?  
That dragon disguise was meant to look ridiculous and fake, now we‘re at the point were actual dragons look like that.

Where things like making sure that fantasy characters are drawn “right” for a cartoon is concerned, there really is only one lesson.
 

 
It’s pretty universal. For me, it works for lots of stuff like this.
 
I’d love to chat about it more, but someone else desperately needs my attention about something that seems super important to them, so I must focus on that for a bit. Might be a while.

They’re Flash Animation. You save on work by reusing the same model. That’s why many background ponies are clones of each other. Any unusual design requires additional work. It’s literally the opposite of what you said, I’m afraid.

The season 1 wyrms were likely to difficult to animate being more intricate designs, teeth and slender body. Fat basic dragons with simple designs are much more cost efficient.

I don’t care about the ages of the dragons. The point I (and Starswirl) are trying to make is these types of dragons aren’t a new occurance.
 
I honestly think Garble’s design is both goofy and ugly and is a poor example of a badass looking dragon. I never really got a serious or sleek vibe like I did with Ember and Smolder because I think his head and snout shape look really off.
 
This new character is implied to be his father. He may very well not be his dad.
