Oh my goodness... I feel like crying right now...
Was anyone else a super dino nerd as a kid? One that watched every Walking With Dinosaurs episode a hundred times over and Disney's Dinosaur was the best film ever?
Cause I was.
And this... I don't... Oh my god. I have no words.
I'm so happy. If these mounts are all raid drops or something, I will die, because I don't raid.
I NEED THEM. DINOSAURS ARE MY EVERYTHING.
OH GOD BLIZZARD YOU AMAZING PEOPLE YOU GIVE ME YOUR BABIES. <3

Edit: Just saw this. (Images are huge so I decided to link.)

Anyone else think/hope/PRAY this might be a new rare? It looks a bit like an updated King Krush or something. And I tell you, I would replace Krush for that in an instant.

Edit 2: And I just found this, hidden in the official patch notes! Sounds exciting!
"Dire Horns have been added as a tameable species for Hunters that have learned the required skill. Aspiring Dire Horn owners should seek out clues regarding these auspicious beasts."

---

Edit 3: Possibly the new spirit beast we were promised?

Mounts

So looks like there may be some mounts coming. Well speculation for the bird atleast. Will update as need be.

Flying
•Armored Riding Pteradactyl (New) Summons and dismisses a rideable Armored Riding Pteradactyl. The capabilities of this mount depend on your Riding skill and location. Account wide. 1.5 sec cast.
•Ghastly Charger (New) Summons and dismisses a rideable Ghastly Charger. This is a flying mount. Account wide. 1.5 sec cast.

Ground
•Spawn of Horridon (New) Summons and dismisses a rideable Spawn of Horridon. Account wide. 1.5 sec cast.

•Zandalari forces have begun scouting the shores of Pandaria, searching for the perfect invasion point. The Zandalari can be found in Krasarang Wilds, Dread Wastes, Townlong Steppes, Jade Forest, and Kun-Lai Summit. Zandalari Scouts can be handled by 1 or 2 players, while elite Zandalari Warbringers will likely require a full party of 5 heroes. Defeat Warbringers to gain special drops, including crafting materials, reputation gains, an achievement, and even the chance to get one of three new rare mounts!

The pterodactyl mount changes with your riding skill, does that mean they are making more mounts both ground and flying mounts? I thought it was really cool when they did it with the fel drake.

Methinks that the Pterodactyl will come from rep or Archaeology. Raid bosses don't usually drop flying mounts that are usable at pre-60 levels.

That's what it indeed sounds like, based on the wording. :)

I'm nearly certain they'll be permanent. I think it's even tied in to dailies.

That he is!

Although hey, maybe we can hope he'll drop a mount of himself....that would be pretty epic. :D

The Ghastly charger is a TCG item probably, together with a flying book minipet and a darkportal... thingie.

I want the pterrorwing. Coolest mount since the protodrake era!

This may look a bit confusing, but there were two 5.2 mount threads, so I merged them.

I hope the Pterodactyl mount does not wind up having that ridiculous looking head armor. Otherwise, it's cool.

Found a video of the mounts, there are apparently A LOT of colors that weren't linked on WoWhead News or MMO Champion.

And those pterodactyl colors... I'm in awe.

That right there is my instant favourite.

The red triceratops looks gorgeous, and I like that blue one with the red eyes too!
