So we've got any aberration, animal, dragon, giant, humanoid, magical beast, monstrous humanoid, plant, or vermin to choose from.
Animals:
Apes are Large, 4 HD, Str 21, Dex 15. War Apes(Dragon#292) are Medium, 4 HD, Str 18, Dex 14. Dire Apes are Large, 5 HD, Str 22, Dex 15. Legendary Apes are Medium, 13 HD, Str 30, Dex 17.
Babboons are Medium, 1 HD, Str 15, Dex 14.
Monkeys are Tiny, 1 HD, Str 3, Dex 15.
Taga'rivvins are Large, 3 HD, Str 21, Dex 10. (hairless, albino apes)
Giants:
Fire Giants are Large Size, 15 HD, 31 Str. Frost Giants are Large, 14 HD, 29 Str. Stone Giants are Large, 14 HD, 27 Str. Hill Giants are Large, 12 HD, 25 Str.
Trolls are Large, 6 HD, 23 Str. Ogres are Large, 4 HD, 21 Str. Ogre Magi are Large, 5 HD, 21 Str. Skullcrusher Ogres are Large, 8 HD, Str 25. I suppose Merrow and Scrags have the same stats as Ogres and Trolls, but with swim speeds if those are retained, can't recall that right now. Ettins are Large, 10 HD, 23 Str.
War Trolls (http://archive.wizards.com/default.asp?x=dnd/iw/20040815b&page=6) are pretty nice from what I recall, 12 HD, 31 Str. Forest Trolls are Medium sized and have 5 HD.
Monstrous Humanoids:
Minotaurs are Large, 6 HD, 19 Str.
Dragonkin are draconic Monstrous Humanoids with 7 RHD and Large size. Claws and Rake, Str 19, IIRC.
Medusa are Medium, 6 HD, Str 10, Dex 15.
Annis Hags are Large, 7 HD, Str 25, Dex 12. Green Hags are Medium, 9 HD, Str 19, Dex 12. Sea Hags are Medium, 3 HD, Str 19, Dex 12.
Centaurs are Large, 4 HD, Str 18, Dex 14. Derro are Small, 3 HD, Str 11, Dex 14.
Gargoyles are Medium, 4 HD, Str 15, Dex 14. Kapoacinth Gargoyles have a Swim Speed.
Grimlocks are Medium, 2 HD, Str 15, Dex 13. Doppelgangers are Medium, 4 HD, Str 12, Dex 13.
Humanoids:
There's that mutant gargoyle from the 3.5 redux of the Tomb of Horrors that is a Humanoid-typed creature of... I think Medium size and something like 20 RHD.
Bugbears are Medium, 3 HD, Str 15, Dex 12.
Gnolls are Medium, 2 HD, Str 15, Dex 10.
Adding Lycanthropy into the mix and creating them in hybrid form will increase their HD and their Str and Dex. Same for Emantothropy IIRC.

If Lycanthropy can be stacked multiple times, then that can greatly increase a creature's RHD, although you can't really gain the benefit of more than one set of bonuses to STR/DEX.
Half-Dragon (http://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/halfDragon.htm) is essentially a free +8 Strength. Multiple times if you can stack different kinds of Half-Dragon.
Half-Minotaur and Half-Ogre as templates can increase the size category of smaller creatures and give a boost to Str. +4 Str for either them, potentially more Str for increasing size category by 1 or 2.
The Fetch half-undead template can give -2 Str for +2 Dex, Gheden can give +4 Str for -2 Dex, Ghul gives a Bite attack and +2 Str and +4 Dex, Katane(Half-Vampire) gives +2 Str and +2 Dex
Other Templates:
Woodling adds at least one Slam attack and +7 Natural Armor to a base creature.
If you can dig it up, the Mr. Roboto build included an awful lot of template stacking to make a truly nasty thing to tussle with.
