Do want. D: Absolutely beautiful mount.
Can't wait for it to come out even though I'll probably never get one for myself. lol

Given its beauty, love the constellation look from connecting the "stars" of its body, yeah the horse will probably be one of those uber rare drops.
But on the possible bright side, since this "Pegasus" type model exists Blizz may grace us players with purchasable versions after Cata shakes up everything.

Meh.
Looks unfinished to me, and the Alliance colouring of the barding puts me right off.

The dragon does nothing for me either. But then I've never seen the appeal in vanity items.

Hrm....I'm half and half on it. I don't think I'd go crazy trying to get it, but if it is available to a non-raider I might consider taking a swing at it :D

I'm trying not to get excited. I don't raid so its likely all of these are out of my reach. Its starting to get a bit annoying really. They showed off all those bone dragons before wrath and I figured everyone would have a chance at them, but that wasn't the case. Now it seems everything new and cool is raid exclusive. Makes me wonder why I still bother playing since I have almost everything I can solo for. :|

The mount doesn't do a lot for me, though I'd roll on it if I had the chance.

The dragon, though, I'm so needing to get!!! :D

I hear ya, Bulletdance :( I don't raid either--don't have the time or the internet connection. And it seems like everything coming out these days is going to or already does drop in a raid, not an instance or by reputation or just a random drop. :( What about us soloers?

I can actually agree. I raid, and the fact that these are raid exclusive pisses me off too. I've gotten Twilight Drake ninjaed, even tough I won the roll, two times now. And the GMs are so understanding...

"Only raid with people you know that you can trust..."

GUH!

EDIT: Wrote Invincible. Meant Twilight Drake.

Ok, maybe I'm just really really weird, but these "celestial" things do absolutely nothing for me. They look like bare-bones 3-D skeletons, with the little wire frames and everything, with some extra shimmery crap added on to make it look fancy. I hate them! Lol :( I'm such a party-pooper.

All I want is my emerald drake mount. We got every other color, including that odd twilight thing, but no emerald? Emerald is my favorite dragon race!!! Oh, a couple more hippogryph colors wouldn't hurt, either... :)

Agreed, I've wanted Emerald for a while. The closest it gets is pretending the Occulus mount is yours :( If it does drop, it'd probably be from something Emerald Dream related. Or maybe the ruby shrine instance.

I'd love to see more hippogriffs too. I nearly cried when I realized that gorgeous silver hippogriff was Alli-exclusive :(

Don't really care for the constellation thing, either, but I sure would like a pegasus. <.<;

I've seen on some forums a

Code: Select all

[spoiler] *sings* [/spoiler]
tag, that puts the *sings* behind a *SPOILER!*tag. When you click the *SPOILER!* it appears, magically. IMDB also has something similar to this.

Mmm, neither are really speaking out to me. I'm more excited about the red hippogryph coming out, hehe.

That's from a TCG loot card, like the Wooly Rhino mount.

That's one sexy Hippogryph.

Meh, the celestial things look poorly made, imo. Like they have bendable wires inside of them.

True, but I thought it was said they're not going to release anymore card sets. Meaning this would be implemented in another way, me thinks.
