( i dont think this was posted, if it was already woops)
I'm most excited about the portable Anvil/ Forge and the 2 new mounts! Note they do not say "require engineering" either, so they are BOA hopefull
I was sad that there wasn't a Cata-Wormhole (i used my Northrend one so much (still do)) ~ very handy tool

I think this one appears to be a random teleporter. Perhaps a Relic of Argus ish type?

Don't care! It still says "Wheeeeee!" xD
Pandaria probably won't seem that big from the air, especially not after Cataclysm with its split zones.

NICE!!!! Oh this expansion is going to have so many awsome things!! The anvil really excites me since my engeneer will also be a BS, and having to find an anvil/forge is a pain! New mounts will be GREAT!!! Hopefully they will be quieter then the current 'copters. Hehehe a blingbot!!! I wonder what kinds of "gifts" it will give. That glove enchant looks likes a nice boost! and YES!!!! Another wormhole generater!!!!!! I LOVE random ports!!!!!!!!!!!

I MUST admit excitement over the gathering goggles! While stats may decrease for world pvp (That is MY NODE!!!!!!

), I still think I'll sport them.
BLINGTRON!!!!!!!!
I can see myself opening up the blingtron every raid, every week. LOL!!!!
I do worry about the anvil/forge. >.> I like the idea, don't get me wrong. I just wonder if we're going to need SO MANY MATTS that we'll NEED to use it while farming. Hmm. Still, though. Like. *clicks the like button*
...and here I thought I was the only one who used the wormhole generator for Northrend?

It sure makes Archaeology soooooo less painful <3
and. MOUNTS! <3<3<3<3<3<3

"the Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!" part on the Wormhole.
Portal Flashbacks suddenly start coming back to me.
But this honestly seems lovely(:

I port to the Basin all the time. Because Krush. <3
I like the portable anvil/forge because it means we don't have to return to town to craft.

Oh man, setting up shop in a raid would be amazing. Too bad we don't need ammo anymore, eh?

Well, not really. But the idea that we could plunk down an anvil and make ammo without having to leave....so cool.

That anvil is super handy too for friends of engineers

Just think, drop a mailbox, jeeves for bank access, forge/anvil, and who knows what this Blington may add...
Just need a portable AH now

Awesome. Just, awesome.
Been waiting for a portable anvil/forge since forever.
And new mounts are always <3

That rocket needs to have the flavor text: "Get off the roof... Get off the roof..."
Hopefully the mounts aren't as expensive as the JCing ones. o_o

Great article, look forward to riding this badboy:
I really hope you can shoot people with pellets off this (think xmas rifle gun)
Theres a gatling on the front, it should do something!

I can't tell you how excited my rogue is to finally get a rocket at some point. I *will* level her and her engineering if necessary.

Currently, there isn't a engineering requirement on it. Perhaps you could just have any of your other engineer's create and use one, and it would be on all toons?
One is for Goblin, and another for Gnomish I believe

I'm surprised you didn't use this link instead:
Wowhead Engineering Preview. It seems to have a lot more stuff about the goodies we're getting

In addition to what you listed, we're also getting a mechanical dragonling vanity pet, an on-use dragonling trinket, fireworks, and of course goggles. These are the ones I found particularly interesting:
Ghost Iron Dragonling
This is going to be a nice leveling replacement for my Enhancement / Elemental Shammy. They *LOVE* Mastery. Sorry Hunters :/
Mist-Piercing Goggles
Finally, something useful we can sell besides vanity pets, guns, and scopes assuming they are meant for everyone. If they're open to everyone, I wonder if they'll be transmoggable too. I also wonder if this will be the "extra resource gatherer" we get for this expansion, much like gas clouds and the Electrostatic Condenser.
Watergliding Jets
This may just replace my Nitro Boosts, especially if it doesn't cancel from taking damage. It'll depend on how much "water" I have to deal with in questing or gathering resources, but I'll probably carry an extra belt with this modification for that reason.
Goblin Glider
Not sure I'd replace my parachute cloak with this, I typically use my parachute to land safely in certain circumstances, and the idea that it might "catch fire" isn't a good selling point.

Unfortunately it will probably be the mounts are like all other crafted mounts: Character only, not Account wide. Still it's nice to see some new engineering toys especially the anvil/forge.

What I'm -hoping- is that the World Spinner and the Rocket are BoE rather than engy-dependent, like the pets are. This puts them into the category of 'something you can actually sell'... Yes, I know there's the chopper, but the mats for it are kind of irritating these days since people only do Uld for lulzies, and on top of that it took a crapton of rep to get the recipe.
My only capped engy is a worgen, so I leveled him after the grind of endgame Wrath, and he's all of 'friendly' with the Vanguard. I don't know... I think it's kind of a bad design when you have to go back and mindlessly grind instances you don't even want to do just to (very very slowly) get the rep for a pattern that's your only major sellable.

They'll almost certainly be BOE's and sold in the AH like the JC mounts are. It's another money sink.

Yeah, I only have the two engineers, one of each spec - so if I want to make the goblin engineering mount myself, I have to level her.
