I can't deside to tame the red Outland one

I'd do the green one, too. It's fairly rare, eye-catching, and doesn't have that goofy tiny, pointed lower jaw that the Outland models sport. Then again, the weird slanted eyes of the Old World raptors put me off too >.< But I'm a fan of the green!

I'm gonna go against the grain and say, tame both- no not tame and keep both. But tame both, and spend some time leveling and playing with them, because after you tame that green raptor, what if something nags at you; if only you had tried out the red one? You might like the outlands version more? But you already have a green raptor, and you don't want to have 2 raptors, and it might leave you feeling disatisfied.
This way you can really know if you'll be content with the green one.

I've never really been a fan of the Old World Raptor (except Takk and the red one, they rawk my sawks). So I'd definately say the Red Outland. =) I have a Green Outland one named Anthwax on Tyuri, and he's absolutely adorable! I did what Ryai suggested a long time ago, I grabbed a Old World Red, levelled and played with him for a bit, then got a Green Outland and I instantly fell in love. <3 In the end, it's your decision. See if you get that warm, fuzzy feeling when they run back to you for either colour, and go with that one!

My vote is for the green vanilla - other then the purple/black one, the outland models' coloring just doesn't do it for me... in a weird sort of way having most of their hind end bearing a darker color and the front end lighter makes them look like they're wearing some kind of goofy pants or overalls or something... dunno.
Maybe I'm just bitter over the true spiny raptors from cata concept art never being implemented...

I'll add my voice to the votes for green. Even though I tamed Takk again last week (I was riding by checking for some pesky Alliance in the Barrens and there he was. I tamed him for nostalgia sake) I do prefer the green ones.
When it comes to Outland/ZD spiky raptors, I really do like the black ones best.

I always vote Outland models over Vanilla. They just looked cooler and more deadly. Then again, I'm biased to TBC because, of all the content I played through when Wrath came out, it was the most fun.
Anyways: Outland Raptors

Could also get the colour changers from ZulDrak if you like variety. I named mine Shank.

Yeah, like the changers. I tamed a juvenile raptor and didn't realize they change back and forth on the color, lol. I prefer the juvenile color pattern, so I need to get a drake from Occulus to stop time for mine, haha.
