It should be no secret to everyone; that once Aikar finally finishes and releases everything that is involved with getting the Dragon Tomb update released: It will be so much easier for them to create similar "boss fights" a lot easier.
Yeah, those boss's used in HyPixel's maps are vanilla all they require is some special redstone coding and stuff, they'd be good in mob arena's (I think Aikar already has some custom coded mobs in the arena) but not as their own individual thing equal to the Wither or ender-dragon.
