I just went and watched the tf2 trailer two again and you can notice some significant changes even from that. For example, the scout's weapon looks totally different (might be a totally different gun even), the demoman doesn't have the throwing dynamite anymore and his grenades didn't glow either.

Anyone spot any more changes?

The grenades do glow, only when critical though...maybe they changed it.

The grenades always glow, don't they? It fades after a while, but when fired they have the sprite-trail and the glow and everything. I think critical stickies keep sparkling until they're detonated though.
 
I really would have liked them to keep the dynamite. It does show that Valve once thought that the old MIRV capability of the demoman might have had a place. Maybe it could have been cool if kept to a carry limit of 1, but I guess they changed their minds.

True, they do glow, but not ALOT. The crits glow more.
 
Scout has a close range weapon now (scatter gun) instead of the Nail Gun as seen in the trailer.You can also see him posing with the Snipers Machine Gun in the original posters.
The Demoman got the good ol Pipe Launcher instead of the Dynamite Bundle(MIRV).
The glowing grenades,which i assume you saw from some recent screen shots or trailers are actually from the Pipe Launcher which wasn't present in the original trailers etc at all.They also updated some of the character/weapon models.Like the Soldiers Rocket Launcher for example.I hope that answered your questions.
 
Sniper-got scout's gun from posters.
Spy has a revolver not a pistol like in demos.
