Yeah.
Spectral Gryphon looks okay, but I doubt I'll see lots of people riding that ghostly Manticore.

Oh and void storage and gear change too.

If these people have such a problem (one even mentioned "this piece of shit game") then leave and be done with it.

Quoting this because logic gets lost easily in MMO Champ news posts.

Wow, Resto Shaman is sure getting the short end of the stick here.
Priest & Druid 4pc is a no-thought-required throughput bonus. Paladin's is similar; its flat but on a 1 minute cooldown. Kinda crappy it being tied to a cooldown.

The resto shaman? Tied to a 2 minute cooldown on an ability that we try to keep in our back pocket for when the shit really hits the fan. 30% haste is nice and all, but its just sad when our 4 pc is so sad.

I've been healing as a resto shaman since BC and I have to say this looks like the worst bonus ever. I know they wanted to tie this to one of our new cata spells. Fine! <cough>Healing Rain<cough>

Did you not see all of the artwork from the upcoming dungeons? It is gorgeous.

Once again: Who the hell'd buy that ugly Wyvern?

Probably the worst looking mounts added in recent times :S

Set it on fire and it would sell like hotcakes.

Meh.
The Wyvern skin is still ugly as sin.
Even on fire.

Hm, might get both spirit wyvern and spirit wolf... Very shamanistic... Hmm..

Nothing well ever be as ugly as the frostwyrm mounts if you ask me, and by saying so I've just rattled the cage, since most people thinks that they are amazing, which I'll never understand, mainly because they look nothing like frostwyrms. It's all subjective.

Hopefully, Azshara has a unique model, and the Night Elf pictured isn't her or is a placeholder. She deserves to be discernable from the 'rifraff'.

wouldnt buy either of them

I aboslutely LOVE the Gryphon it looks awesome. I cannot wait to see how it will be obtained so I can try to get one.

spectations...

bah...you get the message...

I don't see why she should stand out that much as to get a whole new model.
Nice textures and everything like Thrall did but not completely new. That'd stretch it a little too much for a small dungeon boss.

Considering she was the Queen of the elves and said to be the most beautiful, she needs *something* to not just be 'yet another night elf' in a dungeon that should have a few, at least before they (potentially) turn into satyrs.
Her current (read: naga) form will definitely be interesting when they reveal it.

Spectral Gryphon is soooo beautiful

my question is WHY BITCH ABOUT IT? the devs are actively giving you more and more and more options on what you want to fly around on. they could very easily just say fuck you and not add in anything new. its not like the model or skin of the mount you ride on has any affect on the game play, so why even complain? you dont like it, cool, dont buy it. you collect mounts, awesome +1 for you, but if you are a real mount collector you most likely have your favorites that you use and this one is just one more in the bank. and who knows, maybe some people are stoked about this mount and are chomping at the bit to go out and get it.
