Yeh, I'm a bit bummed he had a growth spurt. The black trail he leaves is cool, but not sure his odd gait is able to be ignored... his gliding animation for moving just doesn't fit with his size, just looks weird...
Not sure if I have a free stable slot yet or not.

I initially released Bomani after she "Grew up" but decided to get her back.
Mainly because I am still attached to her despite the new size and partly because I dont have anything else I want for Nefretiti. she has all Cata rares exept Jadefang who I dont really want anyway .. I like squee spiders but personally the "nails against a chalkboard" squee is something I just cant get past.

Atleast he still keeps that black streak behind him. Also, it seemed, for mine, that the walk animation was buggy. Still a unique quark to this pet though, so I might keep him.

I would like to note that while my Anzo has grown...he's still not full-size. :O

What a great observation Ziarre!!! Wow very noticeable size difference.
On a side note:
I tried to release Squeak last night and couldn't. Guess he's stuck with me. I also noticed when looking at him in my pet list or on his box thing (no I cannot think of what it's called) he still looks tiny.

Yeah, Puck had a growth spurt too, but at least he's still somewhat compact, and still has his US hockey puck streak behind him when he moves.
After the hell I went through to get him, I'm keeping him. I needed a turtle or beetle anyway. Besides, the little cutie has grown on me.

Yeah, I'm still kind of attached to mine and am keeping him for the time being.
It's very clear they simply sized these little guys up instead of making them a "regular" beetle. As others pointed out they still aren't as big as regular beetles, they show up tiny on the pet view screen thingy at the stable master, and the shield they generate is huge enough to stand under... and I noticed last night the running animation looks "slow" so it glides along at normal speed but the legs aren't keeping up.

On a slightly unrelated note, yesterday afternoon, I was running a guildie through Zul'Farrak on my death knight and noticed that the black scarabs in that instance have apparently been shrunk. They're not as tiny as the corpse scarabs used to be, but they're definitely smaller than normal beetles. Anyone have a free stable slot to test out whether these guys and the corpse scarabs are the same size?

I JUST found out about this. I really need to pay more attention to these forums...
Anywho, curse my limited stables. :/
