Bone raptors really make me wonder where they would even come from and how they would be obtained. Archeology? The fact that a plain model exists also has me wondering if that would become tameable or not. The armored phoenix has me really excited. The purple one itself could be a nice mount but the armored one looks really amazing to me. I had read that mounts would be part of the rewards coming from leveling up your guild reputation, maybe a pheonix would be worthy of that? If not perhaps it's another raid reward.

I want a boneraptor.

Ah looking around on those forums I found this quote:

In case anybody missed it, the Skeletal Raptor Mount was mentioned as an Archeology reward in one of the recent Alpha Press releases.

Lucky guess!

Interesting, but I'm not sure those would hold a Tauren's weight.

So they're actually obtainable, woo! I'm a huge raptor mount fan and as most of my toons are Alliance, I don't have all that much to choose from... Let's just hope those will be available to both factions.

Bone raptors I might get just to add to the mount collection. Giant, Purple Flying bird will probably become a drop from some boss on heroic mode. Now if it can be gotten in a regular heroic, like the Blue Proto Drake, I'd try to get it to add to the collection. But if it only drops from being in a Raid I'll pass.

Eeee skeletal raptors! Need one right now!

hmm i could see the raptors being a dk type of things since the have the skele flyin mount.. who knows would be cool if anyone could obtain them. i want a phoenix SOO bad, i love phoenix's

An animation of the pheonix is up on youtube as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8YKNFr8ya8

Here's also an incomplete:

Not too fond of the raptors, but I like the phoenix's helmet. :D

I know what Kas's next mount conquest will be. GORGEOUS skeletal raptor. Named BONEY!

[and for anyone who gets the reference, a cookie jar bequeathed in your name =D]

I really look forward to seeing that dragon completed! I have a hunch though that I will still prefer it without armor, it's beautiful as it is.

*makes grabby fingers at the Bone Raptor mounts* Want. WANT. My Undead Priest needs one of those mounts.

Shadowform + Bone Raptor = <3

yeah the bone raptor makes sence to be a reward from Archeology it would not really fit in anywere else! Maybe bone drakes (not frost wryms) or devilsaurs too? i'd love that.

Hell, I'd be content with just a regular Devilsaur Mount.

yeah so would i. Funny when i posted that i forgot about them.

Here's the bone raptors walking: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ERHwrlHIOIY

I hope for some kind of bone Archaeopteryx as archeology flying mount. That'd make sense, and we've already got Pterrordax in Ungoro, so... they do exist in WoW universe.
