Called it!

I shall now bite my tongue in saying anything about it... Cause it won't be positive.

Sucks it was $$ but shit I couldn't resist. The boy got it for me as a part of my vday gift. XD

I has no money to buy it.. but the wings from the videos when it was still new looked really wonky, im gonna have to see it in-game for a while to contemplate getting when i finally get a job

I hear it has no ground animation...that true?

No ground animation but does a flip if you are on the ground and hit /mountspecial

SO much <3 for this mount. THe lack of grount animation and the wings are kinda meh, but the rest really makes up for it.

Kinda sad it has no ground animation...makes me think of the hypogriffs back in the day...been cool to see running I think lol. Well, I wonder if more of this model will be mounts in MoP.

Well the gryphs got a walking animation eventually

Sorry for double post..but here is the mount in Shadowed form

Ooh, now this is the first Blizzard store mount that I've ever considered buying.

I really love the Asian dragon model and the fact that it has a completely new skeleton and animations. Gold isn't necessarily my favourite colour, but I just really like the model. I'll see how our funding is right now and if I can manage it I'll probably buy it. ^^

I'm surprised nobody else has mentioned this, but...

It's flying backward? O.o

Someone pointed out on the forums that it's using wind serpent skeleton & animations, so when turned horizontally, it appears to be flying backwards, and I think they're right. Cannot unsee

It also has no ground animation (can't land) although the /mountspecial looks pretty cool (druid or bird of prey backflip!).

and it REALLY looks awesome in Shadowform.. I just tried it before coming here to see what people were saying about it.

BEST.MOUNT.EVAR.
It has a swimming animation...It swims like a snake

Ya know...it says flying mount...so that means my little lowbies can't use it til 60...awww...still cool tho. I think? Or can they?

I saw a 35...lemme check with a lowbie of mine

EDIT: Yep! Using it on my 46! It just floats XD Useable at 20

Lowbies can still use it. I did o my level 30 troll.

Ah...kinda weird it just...floats lol..."Although you don't have a flight license, you are allowed a hover license! You are considered flying if you're more than 10 feet off the ground!"

I hope they add a ground animation sometime tho, I think it'd look pretty spiffy. Maybe it kinda...bounces or something...hopefully not the same running animation current dragons have.

With it's legs it couldnt have the same animation as the current drakes XD

I figured...hence why I hoped for something else lol...

God, the que is freakin long to buy it...gunna be waiting forever lol.

lol, I am getting one for a friend, was 18.9k in line, down to 2200
