Since I hadnt spent all my weekly allowance yet I went and bought it. I really like the look of it far better then the sparkel pony (which I havent bought)

An interesting observation I found was when my worgen mounted up, he was proper size, but when I longed out/in again suddenly my worgen was almost double in size on the mount O.o

My gnome on the other hand is next to invisable on its back lol.


I love the light trails affect that it has when it flies though, I find my self flapping around duskwood doing lazer light shows :3

It's really well-crafted, and like the sparkle pony it doubles as a ground mount as well (i.e. it can be used in BGs/dungeons/TB/wherever really). The wing trails are nice and subtle as white light effects can be, and the mountspecial looks great. Haters however, are going to hate.

I would have probably liked it if they had kept it as a plain black lion, but the armor, mane braids, and fire effects all together just make it far too busy for my liking.

Still waiting for my flying scorpion mount. ;)

YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY

Saw a post about this on tumblr after I got home from school and was like "HOLY CRAP GOTTA GO GET IN THE QUEUE". Just redeemed the code, now I'm logging in. I knew I wanted it from the moment I saw the first preview on MMO-Champ a few months ago. Much, much prettier than the Sparklejellopony, as I have so annoyedly LOVINGLY nicknamed it.

Sooooo gorgeous <3

Wow. It's even uglier than I thought it would be.

Seriously. I don't understand why it is in the most bizarre unnatural color combination. It doesn't look like a part of any area of all of Azeroth. What were they thinking? I suppose it's meant to look at home in Uldum but even there I don't see it. If they had made it any colors other than a strange cream and powdery stone all of the embellishments could probably have been tolerated, but as it is now it stands out like a ridiculous sore thumb. I love the model itself though, so if they release black and white mode World of warcraft maybe then I can use it :( (okay the embellishments could use to be toned down a little too...)

You're the first I've heard say that. I was sitting in Uldum and I got like 20 whispers asking if I got it in Uldum.

Needless to say I am ecstatic! Bought one for fiance and myself, puttering around online instead of riding him, what am I doing?! Gah, must go coddle my new mount. So handsome!

That's a bug. I noticed it the other day; whenever I zoned in mounted (in this case, on a frostsaber), my worgen was HYOOJ and my poor tiger looked like I decided to go for a kitten ride. Here's a screen of the poor thing. (Dismissing and recalling it will fix it, btw.)

I love him! Both my boyfriend and I got one (neither of us liked/bought the sparklepony) and I'm in love with him - his animations, his looks (the cream and steel made me ... for a bit but when I read the note that mentions he's a titan creation I love him all the more). His roar is like a real lion :D So yeah, very happy. He's like the most common mount in SW/Org at the moment but I really...don't care.. xD

It'd be nice if haters could just stfu and let those who like the mount enjoy them, but hey, what's an ignore list for :) I totally feel like he was worth the $25 haha.
