As 8.0 drops next Tuesday, thought it would be nice to have a thread for sharing our planned tames!

My Dwarf (who will become a Dark Iron as soon as possible) will be deciding whether she likes
and
more than her current runed dark hound and basilisk.
She'll also be taming
to replace her current spider.
The Goblin will be checking whether
is a fitting replacement for her beloved parrot.
And will make a couple of tames to check if they work out:
Belfie will go and replace her current raven with this
beauty. She'll also decide whether this
is a fitting new look for her old spider.
She'll be taming
and
.
And keeping fingers crossed for these two perfect creatures:
and
!
And finally, my Gnome, although she's still a lowbie, is very excited to see the changes to her mechanical chicken.

Pre-patch tames for Krys:
These guys look really cool with their newer looks and I figured now would be a good time to see how they fit
Obligatory unicorn tame~ I'm really hoping Somber Dawn becomes tameable because that red and black is right up Krys' street but, if not, it'll be the slightly less-red unicorn
Actual BfA tames:
These guys are really cool~ I don't know if a lizard will stick, but we'll have to see
I really dig the albino look some of the newer creatures have. If it doesn't fit, though, then I'll see about the black variant instead
The old-world black Gryphon didn't fit, but I'll try again with this guy. As long as he doesn't constantly flap everywhere
And this will be Ishkar. Vyonne already has a pet named 'Ishka' but as long as I ignore that fact then it's fine :')
Pre-patch tames on Narriah, my hunter on Argent Dawn, when she gets to 110:
Most likely she'll get the golden unicorn, but I will keep my fingers crossed that the ivory one does become available at some point
Actual BfA tames:
I've been waiting for this colour to be tameable since Draenor and now I can finally tame one~ This will be one of Narriah's two main wolves
This pet isn't a definite, but I'll give them a go to see how they fit
This model is just so pretty I can't not tame them~ RP-wise, would she use a falcon? Probably not, but it's fine
Not sure which colour she'll have. I've honestly just got my fingers crossed that either they're always grounded or there's some sort of toggle implemented

$@%& it, now I'm tempted by the green one. I'm already taming two Krolusks, why not another?

I'm getting myself a nice Toad, one blue and one black Unicorn, and a few Hyenas. I already have my 2 rare Demon Dogs ready to go. Once BfA goes live I'm going straight for an orange bee. I'll probably pick up a few of the new dinos once I get over to the Horde lands. Hmm, and perhaps a Kodo because they really do look nice with the updated skins. I love to match pets with my transmog, so I'd love to get many more of the new pets, but I have limited space and it would require a severe overhaul of the Hunter stable. #hurrytheheckupandoverhaulthehunterstable

I think these are the pets I'm potentially interested in (multiple colours of the same model means I haven't picked which one I want yet), depends on which become available.

At the moment I'm planning to go for the Veilrunner unicorn, a Manarunner, the white raven/crow, one of the hyenas, possibly the purple or the whiteish one, and a bee. Not sure any of the others are really tickling my fancy just yet.

Hey,
is there already a list of all new tameable models in the pre patch? I looked everywhere but didn't find anything

There is a list that can be found
here. Just mouse over the images and a list will pop up that shows which mobs can and cannot be tamed

That's an amazing topic and it's been interesting to see what pets others are interested in. With pre-patch dropping tomorrow on EU servers, I've decided to collect some pets that will get their models updated and plan for the future tames:
I've tamed Bayne, Fidonis and Plague to see how their updated models look in-game. I will probably keep only one of them, depending on the color scheme I like most:
Technically, Plague is supposed to be transparent, but it seems it doesn't keep it. At least it didn't in the beta.
I'd really like to tame Somber Dawn, his colour scheme is so striking, but as of now, he is sadly unavailable. I will keep an eye on him and for the time being grab the Tormented Shadowrunner from Val'sharah:
I wish the Lucid Nightmare-like unicorn could be tamed for Void Elves.
That is pretty much it for the pets that will be available with pre-patch. Now onto the expansion itself:
Cannot say how much of these pets I will keep, considering the changes to the pet families and that some of them might never leave the stables. The white birb stays for sure, though.
And surprising even myself this one pet blew me away, even though I usually don't tame gryphons. Brought in all the childhood / teenage years memories of playing Heroes of Might and Magic.
Gonna name it Erathia
Edit: I am also gonna keep an eye on
Avatar of Xolotal, the Hati lookalike.
