They're also currently dangerous to use. If you get disconnected, the game has a habit of forgetting you own them so you have to buy them again (all good, it's for free). However, if you were flying before had to to log back in then you fall to your death. ;)

Yeah, but that makes it kind of cute. The same way a big, fat bumblebee doesn't look like it should fly, but does. I like it :)

Sometimes they do that kind of thing for testing purposes, so they may not be store mounts. But then, the Skyreaver also debuted on the PTR store, so it's also very possible they are :/

Since the new wild chimaera skins (well, so far just the red) have been found on the armoured Iron Skyreaver model on the Alpha server, I added all three as potential mounts for the future.

Oh man, those wolves are awesome! From the looks of things we'll likely be getting quite a few mounts with that style of wolf, I'm glad I decided not to shell out money for a Garrosh run. I like these ones way better.

My bf hates Cata+ WoW so he hasn't played for a while but ever sense WotLK he has wanted a yeti mount. If they put this in I'm betting he will be 1st on the server to get it (assuming it doesn't require a raid) :mrgreen:

Yeah, for the sake of collecting I'm glad I've for a Kor'kron Wolf, but it's certainly not my most favourite wolf mount, and certainly not now :)

As for the Yeti mount... I'm not sure we have ever have a "Humanoid" mount accessible to players before? Certainly opens another can of worms ;)

I dunno, man. It looks like you could give those wolves (and boars) a good push and they'd just fall over and be incapable of getting up again without a crane.

On the other hand... yeti mount? YES PLEASE I don't care even if yeti have never been seen in outland before. Still, I have a sneaky suspicion that's probably only something that some NPC gets to ride.

someday I'll find someplace to host a sig that isn't stupid money-grubbing photobucket

We don't need to confront the Iron Horde head-on. We just need some giant magnets!

I like the iron horde wolves. But I've always been one to prefer less armor - or minimal. I think the iron horde wolves are a little bit much. Can hardly even see its face!

The head on these wolves do seem a bit too big too, and it's more noticeable on the "pet"/non-mount model which uses the coyote animations, but that I can overlook. (Not that a head reduction wouldn't be nice)
