Guardian Cub coming to Blizzstore...but...

Apparently the cub will be a trade-ble, one-time-use-only, pet. So basically, it's a way to buy gold. I think the part that irks me the most is that the cub costs the same as the other pets, but only one char gets it.

I'm not *too* upset about the tradeable thing myself… If you're willing to spend $10 on a mini pet that anyone else could buy and then try to sell it for ridiculous prices, be my guest. :-P It's your money you're wasting.

Maybe it doesn't help that I think it's ugly as all fel. xD

blizzards reasoning behind it is pretty understandable, they said they want a way for people to get these pets and mounts (TCG) without having to spend their real money to get them, yes you can sell them and essentially buy gold, but it gives an oppurtunity for stingy people to get these pets too without having to bow down and pay blizzard
