Already displayed as "Upcoming" on Warcraft Mounts:
  • Vicious Skeletal Warhorse - PvP achievement mount
  • Vicious Warsaber - PvP achievement mount
  • Spawn of Galakras - reward from Glory of the Orgrimmar Raider (10 & 25?). Red proto with yellow stripes and Horde armour
  • Kor'kron War Wolf - reward from Ahead of the Curve: Garrosh Hellscream (10 & 25). There are three armour colours in the database. So far there's no indication of different colours for 10 vs 25, or which colour(s) will be used.
  • Kor'kron Juggernaut, a robotic scorpid mount from Heroic Garrosh
  • Sky Golem (flying shredder) mount, created by Engineering
  • Heavenly Golden Cloud Serpent - purchasable from the Shaohao quartermaster for 22,500 Timeless Coins at "Venerate" friendship (Timeless Isle)
  • Ashhide Mushan Beast - a black mushan with black saddle. Purchased with Bloody Coins.
  • Thundering Onyx Cloud Serpent - black lightning cloud serpent. Probably related to Huolon, a rare of the same appearance, but no proof yet
  • Moonfang - silver worg model with white aura on eyes and moon crescent above head, from new Darkmoon Faire boss of the same name. May not be true learnable mount, currently summoned from object
  • Tyrannical Gladiator's Cloud Serpent - Arena Season 13 award. Seems to be the same armour as the Malevolent one, but a different colour (colour unknown)
  • Grievous Gladiator's Cloud Serpent - Arena Season 14 award. Seems to be the same armour as the Malevolent one, but a different colour (colour unknown)
  • Prideful Gladiator's Cloud Serpent - Arena Season 15 award. Seems to be the same armour as the Malevolent one, but a different colour (colour unknown)
  • Stormcrow. No details yet, other than the model itself. Don't know if/when/how it'll appear, but kind of looks like a Store mount
  • Enchanted Fey Dragon. No details yet, other than the model itself. Don't know if/when/how it'll appear, but kind of looks like a Store mount
  • Lucky Riding Turtle. Unsure of final appearance. Currently the item teaches TCG Riding Turtle mount. May or may not be intentional.
Not yet added to the site:
  • None we're aware of. Please let us know if you notice anything missing! :)

Thanks!

The wolf seems to be the same base model as the Vicious War Wolf (Horde rated BG mount), but with a different armour model over the top. :) I just wish they'd produce a no-armour model at the same time!

SAME!!!!! :shock:

And I wonder if the shredder mount will be the new "NOT" sky claw mount from engineering, or it's going to be a new raid boss drop (with the 1-2% drop rate) from this upcoming Tier. I have a sneaking suspicion it may be the new "flametalon of alysrazor/experiment 12-b/spawn of horridon" and drop off a mid-raid boss.

So.. you'll have it two weeks after we start farming :D

It's also possible this is part of the raid. Something we have to mount up in. It could make for a fun fight mechanic. I only mention that so people don't get too hopeful too quickly! But I do hope it's a mount.

Very true, sometimes imagination can get the better of all of us, best to wait a see... :D

Video on the Kor'kron War Wolf is now up on MMO.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pl ... RWr24Skfh4

Note sure if there are meant to be ears, but those things are awfully bugged, you see in the video when the wolf howls.
That and as much as the new armour is kind of nifty, they really need to take into consideration when it comes to clipping. When the idol animation of the wolf snarling from side to side, it's teeth and mouth get all caught up in the wooden spike/pole things strapped on it's sides.

Not to completely bring it down, it's also a little... dull? The gold one has a little red on the saddle, but all are fairly devoid of any colour or much texture. Maybe if they added something to the head armour, I'm not sure. It just seems a little... flat, and I'm going with not quite complete/finalized yet. Anyways, that’s just my nit-picky view of it, as it is, I really do love this style of wolf mount :)

We've updated WCM with:
  • Galakras - reward from Glory of the Orgrimmar Raider (10 & 25?). The model is a bit incomplete: the armour is there but the proto skin is not. We've used the regular black proto skin for its base for now and I suspect it won't look too different to that (based on the black proto being trained outside Org), but the new armour is genuine.
  • Kor'kron War Wolf - reward from Ahead of the Curve: Garrosh Hellscream (10 & 25). So far there's no indication of different colours for 10 vs 25 or even which colour(s) will be used.
  • An unknown mount for Heroic Garrosh. We have no idea what this will be, yet. Instead, enjoy a new "unknown" image created by SpiritBinder :)

Am not liking the awesome wolf coming from an achieve I will not get. *sigh*

I'd much rather have the wolf as a drop from Garrosh, that way I know that I could get it eventually.

I'm not in a raid group these days. I'm just hoping that late in the patch I can get in a group for a run, through a friend or something.

In fact, with cross-realm raiding, people from Petopia might be able to find benefactors on here that can help them get it! I guess we'll worry about that when the time comes.

From what I've read, you can get the wolf achi from normal, hc and flex. I don't raid except from LFR (if you can call that raiding), but I guess I'll try my luck with flex, at least towards the end of mop:
- it's a tier lower than normal, so it should be easier
- it's segmented like lfr, so you don't have to kill all the bosses to get to garrosh, just the ones preceding him in his segment (at least I think it will work like that)

Please don't tell me we are going down the "I want everything" road...

But yes, with Flex, you can organize battletag/realid raids and possibly get the wolf.

Myself, I still want to see what the heck NotSkyClaw is, but I think the security issues have pushed back the PTR development progress.

There's nothing wrong with *wanting* everything.

*Expecting* everything is a different matter.

There is no need for moral judgements here.

The 'Not Sky Claw' mount has an interesting tooltip:

Not Sky Claw: Mount a Sky Golem, allowing you to fly very fast. The claws are very delicate, allowing herbalists to pick herbs.

Sounds like it MAY be a shredder with hands...or something completely new

Interestingly enough, the "shredder" model did come with a lot of flying animations....
