I saw the hunter PvP gear with the wolf head on the shoulder, while my pet wolf, Kiba, doesn't approve of the armor design, has Blizzard given wolves a face lift too?

No new wolves or old ones changed so far that we know off. But many zones stil closed.
I like how that wolf head looks like from the side but from the front i feel its muzzle is way to big and round, similar to the northrend wolves muzzle just..bigger.
that aside id love to see a new wolf model, specially seeing that cata dident bring anny.
Im not considering the horde pvp mount or the skelleton hounds.

a bit off topic - reading this made me think how weird I'd look wearing this set and having my ghost wolf out :O As if I killed the poor beast, made myself some shiny shoulders and enslaved it's spirit ;/
I would love to see new wolf and bear models! - these are my favourite animals

Yeah, I'm not too sure how the average worgen hunter would feel about it either.
Seems... kinda.... Ed Gein with hair, to me, somehow.

This is a bit of a tangent, but I was thinking earlier on what new tameable beast types we may be getting in Mists.
I mean, looking at the creature models we've discovered (so far), a good portion of them seem to be animals we already have families for. I'm fairly certain Cranes would join the Tallstrider family, we already have Cats and Turtles. Yet we always get a few new tameable families.
This is one of the reasons I feel so certain Hydras will finally become tameable in MoP, because they're long overdue after the inclusion of their own family, plus they suit the theme in my opinion. Besides them however, we can start to look at a few other possibilities. I feel many of the critter types will just remain as such (otters, beavers, raccoons, etc), but the Porcupines seem a likely candidate for a new tameable family. Yaks could be another possibility. Perhaps even the Mushan beasts? Or maybe Blizzard will decide to add an ungulate family to include goats, talbuks, stags? (wishful thinking) Basilisks are another idea, if we look at more old world beasts.
Anyways, I was just brainstorming on it today. How many new beast families do we tend to get each expansion? It's usually a handful, so there's lots of potential in Mists.

I'd be happy if they even put Basilisks and Dimetridons (bound to of spelled that wrong

) into the croc family.

mushan beasts remind me of basilisks for some reason, I would, however, love it if they made basilisks tameable, I want the red outland one.

I think hydras and the basilisks would be a fantastic addition.
As per the hunter wolf shoulders...those look like worgen faces. Not wolf faces, to me at least.
Maybe you killed a meaniepants worgen that was threatening the wildlife and put his face on your soulders? x:

I cant navigate MMO-Champ to save my life XD
And im LOVING the black outfit! Great outfit for worgens, though it really does look like you've mounted the head of a massive abominable worgen onto your pauldron..

I just have to coo over how charming these new dragon turtles are. I'm in love with their models! If anyone was wondering, they do use the original turtle skeleton and animations. They look so different though!

I think the artists really nailed the perfect blend of dragon and turtle.

I like how the red skin is like the Dragon turtle colour from WC3. Makes me wonder if we will see Naga use them in the future.

There's the Naga in Black Temple that have dragon turtles, I wonder if they'll change the models of those ones.

I just hope they give the mounts a different mount special... because this looks rather odd!
