I always suspected that stable master in Swamps of Sorrows was up to something... you were supplying him with pokemon pets, weren't you.

I sense Saturo had something to do with it as well...

It's neat for these to be available at low levels, but I'm not holding my breath that they're permanent. I have a feeling they could just be placeholder models until they release the new island raptors that were shown in concept artwork.

Still, if these happen to stay I'll be pleased. :)

I wish the purple / blue would stay that color... let them pick a different one to be a color changer, just leave the purple / blue one staying that color; hence why I never got a raptor pet, cause that darn purple/blue one is a freakin color changer ><

Awesome, a four-color-switching-outlands-spiky-raptor at a low level!

I'd be very happy if they stay'd color changers for the reason already given, one slot= 4 pets, that and I could never decide which one I liked more, so now hopefully I wont have to choose

Yeah - the spiny raptor sketch was waaaayyy cooler. I just hope these are placeholders but I have a sinking feeling someone at Blizzard just likes them their OL raptors and figured everyone else should too. :?

Here is what the spiny raptor should look like:

Kinda hope this stays. As much as i would love to have a purple only one. Having all 4 in 1 isnt all that bad, and in fact very neat. If it stays, id tame one and name it Chameleon or something.

Yes, yes, yes these. These are what I want. The outland model is meh at best. If pets are normalized with the skins we have now, a raptor would be far, far down my list. If raptors were the best, I'd get one of the old-world ones, not the outland one.

I hate to dissappoint people, but only low-level Goblins can tame these. The Lost Isles are completely phased, other races can't get there and goblins can't go back once they finish questing there. Although that might change, I wouldn't get your hopes up.

My comments and I think the other, more recent ones on this thread, are concerning the fact that we know this isn't a new skin, but wish it was - many of us have been waiting somewhat breathlessly for Blizzard to implement that concept sketch that I linked above (the one of the ax beak/raptor/porcupine thing), and are worrying that this is a sign that particular concept didn't make it off the drawing board.
