If there's one thing World of Warcraft players hate more than people who don't play, it's people that do play but not as much as them.
It's got a fair bit more detail than the Ulduar models. Wasn't expecting much else, though I imagine the model will have some cool effects.
I can't remember who it was who suggested a wounded / captured titan construct (an idea I loved / piggybacked), but good call.
What's interesting now is what his existence implies. His flesh would allegedly have been used to bound Lei-Shen's weaponry, and his mere presence (and potential lack-thereof) may impact something greater.
Is Wrathion aware of his existence? How does this fit in with his whole 'prepare for colossal shitstorm' goal?
I'm liking this patch more and more.
Got this from Mech from his SoL thread
And well the thread bellow thisDungeon journal lore:
Ra-Den
Lei Shen's life changed forever when he stumbled into a dark chamber below what are now the Mogu'shan Vaults. Legend has it he found an ancient titan keeper guarding a miraculous device known as the Engine of Nalak'sha. No one knows what transpired between the two beings, but Lei Shen later emerged from the site bristling with the power to forge an empire. The keeper's fate -- and his current whereabouts -- remain a mystery.
http://www.wowpedia.org/Golganneth looks an very much like that model... and it would make sense considering he is the "Thunderer"

That troll looks so good.
Check it out It's from mech again
He tore the heart of a watcher? Lol wth and the watcher is considered the mogu god I guess.The Thunder King and the Mogu
The mogu tell a legend about Lei Shen, the Thunder King. His followers fell to their knees before him. "We will call you 'The Lightning King,'" they said. It is said that he tore out the very heart of the mogu God. And from that hateful act he gained power over wind and storm.
But Lei Shen did not agree. "Lightning strikes in an instant and is over in a flash," he said. "But thunder. Thunder! Thunder proclaims the coming of the storm." "Thunder quakes the skies long before the lightning strikes, and thunder echoes in the hills long after lightning�s power is spent." "It is thunder that sends animals cowering and fills the hearts of peasants with dread. Let thunder be my herald, so that my power is felt throughout the land." "I will be... The Thunder King." Oh my friend - that awful sound. For a hundred hundred generations the crash of thunder filled the hearts of pandaren with terror.
It is said that after the revolution, the Red Crane of Hope placed the rainbow in the sky, so that pandaren would know not to fear the storms any longer. I do not see any rainbows today. Do you? Fathers and sons. Mothers and daughters. As parents, we pass our legacy on to our children. What values do we choose to instill in our progeny? What will our children learn from our mistakes? What sort of world will we create and leave behind for our daughters and sons? Parents place their children on a path, but they do not always know where the road will take them.
The mogu were children as well. Children of the Titans. They were once a legion of stone, heartless and obedient. By the Titans' command, they fought the terrible servants of the Old Gods.
They shaped the mountains and carved the rivers of the land. And they created a magical cradle of life in a hidden valley that we now call the Vale of Eternal Blossoms.
But eventually the Titans fell silent. And their creations were cursed with flesh. The mogu grew restless. Many generations later, when Thunder King united them, they seized upon their legacy! I truly believe now that the mogu thought they were doing the work of the Titans. They fought against the mantid and used the powers of the Vale to create new life. Ah, but such terrible works! Parents cannot always be assured of the legacy they will leave behind. How especially true this is, when the parents are Gods. And their children - monsters.
That's not Ra-den dude, it's a CAPTURED TITAN, Ra-den apparently was on Lei Shen's side. I say that's Tyr, the titan watcher missing in Ulduar.
It can be Ra-dan, specially with those lightning thingies on his body and etc... But I strongly believe that's Tyr.
I wonder what happened to Zandalar in the first place, maybe Hakkars Daddy broke out cause of the cataclysm
From Mech and his SoL thread
The Zandalari
It is said the God King Rastakhan, ruler of the Zandalari, lords over his mighty kingdom from a throne carved of solid gold.
Years ago, as he sat on this opulent seat of power, he was visited by his most trusted prophet: Zul.
Zul warned King Rastakhan of a terrible Cataclysm. For Zul had seen a vision of a great armored dragon clenching the world in his ferocious jaws.
Months later Zul returned, bearing more grim news from his visions. He saw a legion of serpents pouring forth from a gaping fissure that tore open the floor of the ocean. Still, King Rastakhan did nothing.
Finally, mere months before the Cataclysm, Zul returned. Tearing his clothes and throwing his staff to the ground, Zul spoke of earthquakes and tidal waves. He described the golden capital of Zandalar slowly sinking beneath the waves in the aftermath of the Cataclysm, its once-great people drowning as their mighty works slipped forever beneath the sea.
King Rastakhan tired of Zul and his troubling nightmares. To be rid of the prophet, he granted Zul the use of his largest ships, so that he and his followers could seek a new land if his visions came to pass.
And his visions DID come to pass. When Deathwing rose from the Maelstrom, dark, angry waves crashed into the Zandalari capital. The spine of the land broke in two, and soon, the city and all its riches began to slide into the hungry sea. The Zandalari people turned to their King for help, but there was only one Zandalari equipped to help them: The prophet Zul.
The prophet, and the mighty warfleet he had assembled while his King sat idle. You see, the TRUE power of Kings and Emperors stems from the power to aid their people. The moment they fail, they cede their power to the one who can.
the cataclysm's epicenter was close to zandalar. i assume it went the way of undermine and kazan
