The Celestial Steed Mount!

[Jadvya]

I want that pony. :< I really hope it's not from a raid, that would suck. I, for one, love the constellation look. /astronomy geek.

/drool. I do remember them saying they weren't teaming up with that one card company, but they may pair up with another and still release the card sets? Man, I do loves me that hippogryph.

[Bulletdance]

I doubt the tcg ones will go to waste. Its likely we'll either see them sold again as cards or implemented into the game in other ways. I'm hoping the rhino becomes a boa cash shop thing, but who knows. I have a feeling the tcg game will become much more like chaotic and much less like old fashioned baseball cards. Where that leaves the fate of the redeemable loot codes who knows, but I'd bet they aren't going to go to waste.

I actually like the idea of constellation stuff, but that just may be because I like the stars. I'd go for both, if I could! ie. raid drops or not
On the other hand, what about if we had the chance to tame pets like these? *goes all starry eyed, pun intended*

[Zangor]

i have a sneaky suspicion these may drop in the ruby sanctum
also they found what the final boss and our first full grown twilight dragon looks like.
i must warn you its not for the faint of heart

[Dragonpuff]

That. Is. AWESOME.

[Saturo]

Hide! It's the pink dragon of death!

[Kastarakovski]

Always had an image in my head of what Deathwing's new, improved, 'kick yoah fookin' @$$ to hell' broodlings would look like, and that totally shattered my expectations.
Gives new rise to what in the hell Lady Sinestra was up to in her mate's absence...and if we're to be going from the novels, what she obviously succeeded at enough to warrant DW's attentions to continue her plotting, planning and producing...

If that's going to end up a possible mount...DO WANT!

[Ryno]

My god that purple dragon is. Well. Purple. That's all I have to say about that. Yeah if that dropped I'd pass, 310% speed or not.

Lol...yeah. A bright pink dragon hardly gives off an aura of doom and destruction. >_>

[Nakida89]

I can actually agree. I raid, and the fact that these are raid exclusive pisses me off too. I've gotten Invincible ninjaed, even tough I won the roll, two times now. And the GMs are so understanding...

"Only raid with people you know that you can trust..."

GUH!

WoW, so people already have Invincible Reins even though it drops off LK 25 man Heroic, doubt it, not even the top raiding guilds have downed him in 25 heroic. Exaggerate much?

But that's just it! You are so busy thinking that it's not doomy that it WTFPWNS you near instantaneously.

IT'S A TRAP!

Crap. I didn't mean to write Invincible. I meant the twilight drakes.

D'oh!

Video footage has been released of the mount in action:

Seems to work on the same skeleton and animations as Invincible. I guess it's cool looking, but nothing I'm dying to get my hands on. Though the way the little sparklies accumulate as it stands still is a nifty touch.

[Koona]

The Celestial Steed looks awesome! So does the hippogryph... Gosh...I want 'em all ! <.<

[VelkynKarma]

Its wings bug me..they look wicked awkward

~VelkynKarma

[Vephriel]

Its wings bug me..they look wicked awkward

~VelkynKarma

The flying animation in general looks very awkward. =/ I remember thinking the same when I first saw Invincible videos. The way the legs sway beneath the body is odd, and yeah..the wings don't seem right. It actually seems to be the same animation used on Hippogryphs, but it doesn't look right on a horse model.

[VelkynKarma]

Yeah the back legs look the same as in a hippogriff mount...but the front legs have been altered to fit the horse look, and now it just looks wrong

~VelkynKarma

[Rhyela]

I still hate it, lol. It still looks like a lazy, untextured 3D model. But the weird crap that accumulates in the air around it is kinda cool.

[Epicfail]

Love the steed. Love all the new mounts, except maybe the rhino, but I'm horde. The kodo is all the "lower rider Rhino" that I need.

I love the song on that vid too, but I can't place where its from.
