Saber Cub Companions!!

[MajorThor]

Panther = Z'G pre Quest
Wintersaber = 50g to Vendor in Winterspring
Nightsaber = Trading Card Game

Striped = ????
White = ???

Any idea on where the other 2 come from? Here's a pic!

[Chimera]

o.o maybe they're gonna introduce them in a minor patch, 4.2, or to the blizzard store? They all are super cute <3

[Nubhorns]

I remember there was some vague mention on MMOChamp a while back about how they might drop from mobs, much like the dragon whelps. I can't seem to find that post and it was very early on in the patch though, so I can't vouch for accuracy.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was the case, though.

[MajorThor]

I just REALLY want em all. :3

Speaking as a man's man, they're super cute as fuck.

[Astratia]

Bliz! Make a little Aqua colored cub please :3

[AdamSavage]

Your supposed to have the Panther cub out while doing the new heroics as they sometimes helps you in combat.

[Wain]

When creating a new model they commonly generate a number of skins for it, even if some or most are never used. So while they could be in the game, there's a good chance they're purely skins in the database :/ You'd have to actually find an object in the database that teaches a player the pet spell before it'd be likely they were in, or at least intended to be used soon.

The white and striped cubs are from the first quest in the new Wintersaber mount quest line. You have to go catch eight of them. They are awfully cute, I hope they'll make them into minipets at some point in the future.

[Falcon]

I would give my soul for the white tiger cub. Baby Hawkbane!

[Creameneko]

D'awww, that would be adorable Toph. I'm contemplating taming a Pridewatcher to match my WinterCub, but wondering who I'll have to abandon to get him. D:

DAMNIT!!!! I'm super retard-level sad/mad now.

AAAANNNND, there went my spirit. Thanks Wain, thanks. We've never been formally introduced yet and already...I resent you.

Only kidding of course, thanks for the heads up.

[Xella]

They're part of a quest, but not available as a mini-pet for either faction I think.

[Rower]

The striped dark grey is soooo cute, he reminds me of my kitty

[Comett]

It's just a disgustingly cute model. I think they could be neon pink and orange and still be heartmelting

[Nefretiti]

isnt the pure white the new wild Winterspring saber cub skin? or one of them

*Edit* I whent up to Winterspring to look, the Frostsaber cubs can appear as the pure white, white striped or the lavender .. I dont know if they are avalible anywhere else or not.

[Heleos]

I'd pay for a Snow Leopard cub! I want one so bad >.<
