Please only choose one.
My vote goes to the black ox. He's just so cool.

I wouldn't like to see any of them become spirit beasts personally.

I'm with Veph on this one. I'd honestly prefer it if none of them were. I like that they're unique.

While I like them as unique, had I to choose, I'd definitely go with the crane because I'm in love with that model.

I'll pass on all of them as hunter pets as well. If anyone gets them, it should be monks.

I honestly wouldn't really care that much unless Yu-lon and Niuzao has look-alikes that were tameable by hunters. I guess I like to keep things orderly, and being able to tame something that doesn't even have a hunter-pet family isn't orderly to me. <.<
As for my vote, though, I love Chi-Ji's model. Mostly the red markings. I'd be perfectly happy with just a regular crane with just those red markings. Perhaps I've played too much Okami.

Ah, for clarification, I meant a look alike/reskin. Not the actual demigod. Lol

I'm not exactly pro for EXACT look alikes... but something maybe of a different colour for them all might be okay.
If that's the case, then Niuzao, all the way!

*nod* I assumed so. Either way, for me I'd rather not see the models used, but that's just my opinion. I like that they're the Celestials and reserved for things like the monk abilities, which make sense since most of their spells are invoking the gods. I just don't really feel as though we need tameable versions of them myself.

Perfectly phrased, Veph! That sums up my stance on those forms as well.

While i love them as they stand, only a solid Xuen would i actually go for, specifically the one that monks summon. Dat thing is sexy <3 Its what i wanted Xuen himself to be before Blizz revealed they destroyed his gorgeous model by making it ghostly. None of the other celestials are.. why does blizz hard a weird thing for ghost cats?

No thanks. Do you feel the same way about Loque'nahak, out of interest? It's really not that different from him.

Can't speak for anyone else, but yes.

I think people are taking a fun poll too seriously
It's really hard to choose though, they're all so gorgeous in different ways.
Maybe the ox :/

It'd be neat to see some type of hunter pet linked with a quest that makes you pick. Lets say, at exalted rep with the August Celestials you're offered a quest from the quartermaster in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms that sends you to aid the chosen celestial. After a chain of quests you get phased to do another challenge tame against a "fragment" of chosen celestial.
Only one could be chosen so no way to have all 4. Additionally, it would provide a spirit beast to hunters who have had poor luck with finding any other spirit beast, (I know one guildie in particular that has tried to find one to no avail, and w/o mass summon, I can only be so helpful).
