Patch 4.2 Models - Bosses and Mounts!
Patch 4.2 added a fair amount of models to the game files, see the newest ones below!

PvP Mounts
Both Horde and Alliance got brand new PvP mounts, they seem to be a reward from the existing rated battlegrounds achievements. It's not very clear which achievement is required, Blizzard is probably still playing around with those:







Tarecgosa and Tarecgosa Whelp
Tarecgosa, the blue drake from the legendary staff questline got her own model. There's also a model named "TarecgosaWhelp" and I really want to believe that it is the Dragonwrath Whelpling rewarded by Dragonwrath, Tarecgosa's Rest - Guild Edition. There is no indication in the game files yet that it is indeed the reward, I will try to confirm that as soon as possible.





Malorne
Malorne is also in the game files and got a pretty nice model. For more information check Malorne on Wowpedia



Fandral Staghelm + Fire Scorpion
Fandral's model and his Fire Scorpion forms have been added.





Lord Anthrycist - Lava Form
It looks like Lord Anthrycist's fight will have two phases, he's much more fiery in one of those.



Lava Spiders
Two sets of Lava Spiders models have been added in this patch and they look awesome.





Winged Lion Pet
Yes. Seriously. So much cuteness.



Fire Elemental - Kar
A new Fire Elemental "Kar" model appeared in this patch, not sure if it's just an updated trash mob model or a boss.



Ragnaros Revamped
Ragnaros has been slightly revamped and looks a lot less stupid than in the Patch 4.1 game files.

    The other thing Blizzard do is stick spikes and skulls on everything and call it an upgrade.

    Right. Given that they're carrying the standards of their respective faction, which would roughly equate to the standard bearer that was a part of many an army dating back to Hellenistic times. They're also reminiscent of sashimono, the small standards that would affix to the back of a samurai's armor. (The Blademaster class, which was heavily influenced by the samurai, was one of the first classes/characters to display one of those standards.) It has nothing to do with "American flag-waving", but some historical referencing in a fantasy game.

    1/10 a'cause you got me to respond.

    Blizzard is doing alot things right, right now. Quite fun idea to give fire sets to give players fire damage (and thank god for Ragnaross)

    I can't wait until they can bring all the vanilla character models to the level of art we're seeing now. That Fandral model is just awesome.

    The bottom right wolf reminds me of the Alliance Paladin Charger mount.

    For once NONE of these models look half-assed (with the exception of Kar.) I'm really excited for this patch.

    Probably the only time the alliance mount is better looking than the horde one! Both look great though.

    And still looks stupid. However, given the first reveal looked extremely stupid. I guess the new pic is slightly less stupid when comparing the two.

    I'm glad they fixed Ragnaros. He does look a lot better.

    Those wolf mounts look badass! Wish I was still horde and did rated battlegrounds now.

    Don't like the Alliance horses. -_-
