Not just the skeleraptors, but how about those skeletal windserpents in Tanaris?

someday I'll find someplace to host a sig that isn't stupid money-grubbing photobucket

Oh, yes those as well!

I actually forgot that they existed. Haven't been around in tanaris for a long time now :s

My pet wish list? Ahem.

Amani War Bear. Please oh please!

Old pterrordax. It could be thrown in with the bat family at least. Free ticket for Blizz to stay lazy! The new Pterrorwing model is nice, but it has wings and its grounded animation makes it use its feet to move and that seems strange to me, and I know Blizz wouldn't create a system for it to hover out of combat!

Shoveltusks, yaks, kodo, thunder lizard, clefthoof... big herbivores! The last three could just be thrown in with rhinos, again allowing Blizz some laziness.

Bone raptors/wind serpents. I'd love to have a mini-Avatar of Hakkar with me! We get undead wolves and bears and such, why not bone animals?

Some kind of large bird (like a phoenix)!

Once again, I wish for untameable beasts that fit existing families to be switched on. E.g. clefthooves, rams, the remaining snake type, etc.

Actually, the more I think about it, the more I'd like to see Windsteeds considered, simply because they aren't even used in the game yet (except for the armoured version on one store mount). Even if they're only used on rare beasts (which might be fitting!), they need to be added. It's a crime they're sitting there unseen.

Yes. I completely agree.

I actually think Windsteed could fit as an exotic counterpart to Goats, a new family. I mean, they look a lot like mythological Qilin, so I think they're distinct enough for their own family.

Would work great as a track-tame. I don't like the model much, but I would want him just because it would be hella fun to track "mysterious miniature clouds".

- Cloud sperpents as snakes
- A pug for the dog-family
- Mushans for rhino-family

- Green stone quilen (without golden parts)
- Green riding raptor with armour (Isle of Thunder)


Oh, and that flameworg ;)

Amber Rock Worms
Windsteeds
New family tree or two
More Sporebats. They only have 3 colors. That family needs more love and looks.
Nether Rays need some love too.
More types of Goats. Like the IF goats.
I'd really like to see some of my favorite animal mobs become tameable like the Talbuks.
Oh. And the rest of the Arcane Serpent colors. :)
Those feathered raptors.
The new pterodactyl models. <3

Gonna jump in with the others. I too would send cake for more dino tames. xD

The Windsteed - yes! I agree that it seems like it would be a shame to leave all those other color variations out of game. Such an interesting beast it would be. He would replace my current Goat, 'Guapo'. Heh.

Another thing I've thought about recently is the epic bat mount datamined in 5.2 - just pull of that armor and we have ourselves a stunning new bat model. Actually, I think some unarmored versions were datamined too, partially completed, no? Something like that. I wonder if/when that model will see the light of day (in hunter pet form). Maybe next patch if not this one. Or maybe not at all. I have no idea but I think they look fantastic.

The unarmoured version of the new bat model exists, and has quite a few nice skins. The body and wing textures are all there but WMV has no "combined" skin data, where the model will display the body and wing texture together. So you end up with a body with blank wings. A few other models do this too. If there's a workaround for this I don't know it.

Why they didn't use them for the new ToT bats, I don't know.

I posted my wish few pages back, but didn't realize to put my other wish on that one (don't ask). In case that we don't get Pterrorwings, I personally would like to get armored Direhorns and Devilsaurs as tamable pets (in my opinion, there are too few armored beasts to tame).
