Will at any point during the game will the rare mobs be reappearing if so when and how will we know?

I've seen both mewkats and impostocubes lately, and I gather others have seen love puppies. What other rare mobs might you be referring to?

The known rare monsters that

The known rare monsters that spawn in place of other monsters are:
Love puppy (replaces any turret)
Mewkat (replaces any kat)
Impostocube (replaces any jelly cube)
Soul Jelly (replaces any lichen)
Rock Jelly (replaces any stone block!)

Rock jellies are actually a feature of Grim Gallery, so are not really that rare anymore. Otherwise, they tend to spawn in T3. Slooms, while technically not a rare monster, are considered such because they were taken out of the regular level spawns but not out of the monster table entries, and thus have a chance to spawn in any monster cage (Scarlet Court, Aurora Valley levels, and maybe some others).

Edit: There are supposedly other implemented but unused entries in the monster table like Tortodrones as well; it's possible someday in the future they may make a comeback.

I've seen a love puppy (once)

I've seen a love puppy (once) and several impostocubes in the past month, so yes, the rare mobs are here. You're just unlucky.

In the past three months,

In the past three months, I've seen:

1 Mewkat (In a regular clockwork tunnels level. Teammate killed it 'cause we were both only playing for one day)
1 Sloom (Gloaming Wildwoods: Terrilous Trail) I believe they took Slooms out completely in the update that removed Sleep UVs.
1 Love Puppy (Firestorm Citadel: Charred Court)
2 Rock Jellies (One in Firestorm Citadel: Smoldering Steps, One in Lockdown: Necropolis on the test server)
7 Impostocubes (All in Garden of Goo or Red Carpet Runaround)

Have yet to see a Soul Jelly.

Right after I read this thread I saw a few Love Puppies in Jigsaw Valley, possibly Jade Tangle I. No trinket drops though.

A couple days ago I saw two

A couple days ago I saw two Mewkats in the same room in Scarlet Fortress. In total I've seen 3 Mewkats, 4 Impostocubes, 1 Soul Jelly, over 10 Rock Jellies outside of Scarlet Fortress and somewhere around 9 Love Puppies. Still not run into a sloom.

From the wiki: "The

From the wiki:

"The Impostocube is simply a well styled Jelly Cube variation, that easily stands out in a crowd of other, petty Jelly Cubes. No rare drops have been found from this devilishly handsome gentleman that would not be found on its not so well groomed counter part. However, the Impostocube seems to be rich enough to always drop a gold coin when killed."

I've killed this numerous times, and I'd say more times than not, it doesn't drop anything at all. Not a single coin or heat orb. I probably killed four or five of them before I ever got any type of drop from them (coin or heat).

Encountered my first love

Encountered my first love puppy today :)
Unfortunately it was in a danger room, so I had to kill it in order to progress the level. It didn't drop anything special - just a few coins and some heat.

I saw an impostocube last week, which was my first ever encounter with a rare mob. And it did drop a gold coin.

Personally...

I've seen a few impostocubes. The only one I have beef with is the lovepuppy. JK run, last arena room on the 3rd stage. Lovepuppy spawned in the first wave. a guy, a PRO guy, killed it. He walked into a corner before shouting: OMG I JUST KILLED A LOVEPUPPY!?!? OMG NOOB!

Slooms and soul jellies...

I don't think I've ever seen a sloom or soul jelly, but then again I could just not have looked for them.

I've definitely seen a few really ridiculously good looking impostocubes, though, in the Royal Jelly Palace, along with a couple of love puppies. It always sucks to kill a love puppy at the end, but you never know when it'll drop a trinket! Rock jellies are a bit of a norm in the Scarlet Fortress for me as well. My friend encountered a mewcat in Scarlet Fortress one time, too, and shield bounced it through the level until they reached a barrier. It made such a racket. haha

Tortodrones sound awesome. I hope they bring it back!

I think I've seen a vog cub before, in a beast are of tier 2, not sure if it was because we killed it pretty quick...

Didn't get a picture though :(

The vog cub is no longer in the game. The one you see must have been a fire variant of uh wolver.

I've seen like 5 impostocubes and a Vog Cub believe it or not, although this was a few months ago. I took a screen shot if anyone wants to see.

Left him alive until we'd cleared out all 4 rooms, then sadly put him down.

@Razudmezeghis and Varja:

@Razudmezeghis and Varja: Sloombargos no longer exist. They were taken out when Shrine of Slumber was taken out. As a monster-rights activist, I find this an outrage.

Edit: Razudmeghis, Tortodrone is also no longer is in the game. Soul Jelly are incredibly rare, Slooms can be found in monster cages at an unbelievably low rate, and Toxilargo are only in tier 3 Briar Bone Barrage, which hasn't been in any of the gates lately.

Impostocube

I saw Impostocube in RJP some time ago, that's so far the only rare I've seen. He dropped one Gold Coin and a few small heat orbs, nothing much. I may have seen a Toxilargo recently, it was in a T3 Poison Arena after doing a Jelly king run. Although I may just be talking out of my hide.

I saw three love puppies in

I saw three love puppies in the last 3 days, I think that doubles the number I've seen and I've been playing since right after the game went public. I've seen all the rare monsters that can be seen, only one soul jelly though.
