Verming, the kobolds of Pandaria. Not pets.

If a quest related to them does not somehow reference the Killer Rabbit scene from Monty Python and the Holy Grail, I will be quite disappointed.

Yep, but it had a very bluuue solid wyvern model and was missing the end chunks of its wings, there was a bug too (i believe on PTR) where all the taxi wyverns were using the chopped up base model for the spectral wyvern

I forget where its from but its actually a mini-pet to represent something or celebrate something, least, i think thats what its for, there was threads on it a long time ago but i got no idea what the name of the thread was so i could pull it up for you ._.

i think, all i can definitely say is that it uses the SoC skeleton :lol: it might even (my guess) be possibly the collectors edition minipet for MoP which would be pretty cool, with its skeleton being designed for the Olympics set in China and this particular remodelling being in the likeness of a golden asian dragon

i tried to look up Golden Dragon, Bronze Dragon, and Spirit of Competition but i couldnt find the thread that this guy appeared in (i was going by key words people would probably say to comment on the creature)

Rams are my favourite ground mounts, but if those yaks become mounts, they will be having some serious competition. I am crossing my fingers so badly for those yaks to be mounts, or possibly pets (rhino family does need love after all). They're gorgeous.

And those cranes. I don't know if they'll be tameable, but I certainly hope so! I would immediately drop anything and everything I'm doing just to go and tame one of each on appropriate hunters. So beautiful!

Is anyone here seeing a Kung Fu Panda theme going on here?

There's the Pandaren.

Then the tiger/tigress.

Now the grasshopper.

We already have monkeys / snakes. o.0

Kung Fu Panda doesn't have a unique hold on those animals. Not only are they martial arts styles, but they're also just common creatures you find in China.

So, just thought I'd let people know. I believe the grasshopper was confirmed as a new minipet for MoP during the devchat last night :D
