Just opened it. Reins of the Black Primal Raptor!

He found it earlier and was hoping it'd hatch into his own raptor mount. Until you kill him :(

.....Direhorns riding raptor mounts?

I'm not sure which of these scenarios is more disturbing! :lol:

BAd news for those expecting a Stunted Direhorn in 5.2:

Been pushed back to 5.3, and they hope to give it a unique model, rather than the scaled down dire horn. :S

Aww, that probably means it will end up with some of those soul-sucking "cute" eyes.

We need more dragonkin mini pets. I noticed there is real lack of them in the game.
I believe if you can believe out of nothing an explosion (big bang) happened then how far fetched can god be?

Also, the "we have a cool replacement" made me feel that they're adding something else to 5.2. They're already adding one baby armoured devilsaur pet, so I'm not sure unless it's another colour of that, or a mini new-model pterodactyl.

There's also this "Cookbot" pet in the database in the latest patch. I haven't seen any reference to it anywhere yet, but maybe I missed it:

The guy actually stirs his frying pan as he moves. Pretty cool.

Hopefully not. With luck, it will just be a model like the raptor babies: still cute, but also terrifying.

MMO-Champion and Wowhead have new pets listed in the new ptr patch

Direhorn Runt,
Ji-Kun Hatchling, (the young feathered raptor icon)
Pierre, (icon looks like the cookbot)
Pygmy Direhorn,
Spawn of G'nathus. (looks like it uses the thunder eel icon)

Wowhead also has a model for a python pet (not a skin I've seen. black and reddy/purple markings with grey underbelly)

Plus Intact Devilsaur Hide allows you to disguise yourself as a devilsaur. awesomesauce (think it may only work on the isle of giants though)

Edit - MMO-Champion now has a Wild Thunder Pterrorwing Hatchling but it's a quest item. Still, opens the hope that there may be a learnable pet version at some point.
