Pandaren Special! Character Creation and Emotes!
A lot of people are interested in the pandarens, here's a special news just for the panda lovers out there.


  • Character creation is definitely a work in progress, and so far only the females have the red panda + tail variation. We'll track any update in future patches.
  • Emotes are also in progress, the female is still missing a lot of them but it's perfectly normal in early stages of the beta. No dance yet.

You should definitely check the emotes video at least, the art work on Pandaren animations is pretty impressive and look like they will be a refreshing change.

    The faces... They are so expressive... I'm shivering while I think on them on the new models for old races. FOR SURE I'll roll a Dwarf just to watch the expressions.

    Male /sleep and specially male /laugh are hilarious and outstanding. Overall, this animations are sooo good, that indeed, panda standing near to any race, except for goblins and worgen MALES, makes them look like from the previous century.

    If you go to a top ranked school and do not move your lips when you read then you are handicapping yourself. Mouthing the words increases cognitive understanding of the passage and retention of the content. It seems that "retards" have a competitive advantage over you.

    Personally I think that the Female Pandaren should have the Caramelldansen dance, but the Full dance as demonstrated here:

    Thanks for posting these videos! I think the pandaren animations are just amazing! They have really put some effort into making them detailed. Can't wait to see their dances!

    Ahhhh, I was waiting for someone to link the infamous Ty Lee video, lolol (Could someone please describe her face for me? My eyes never seem to be able to go that far up... lol)

    Honestly though, I think the 3 moves in the animated video are more likely to make it in than the full dance...and I'd be just fine with that -- I'd still hear that damn song every time I saw it regardless, lol (ooh, ooh, ooah, ooah-ah)
    And yeah, the animations here are absolutely ridiculous (love the male sitting... /zen lol). Even after just watching the videos, I feel like I could never go back to playing a classic race...even Blood Elves and Draenei are iffy... :/

    I'm curious though. While under water, do male Pandaren do the same puffy cheeks that the females do?

    To be fair its the only video I know of that has a good demonstration of the full Caramelldansen dance and she does do it really well, but I still strongly believe that it should be the dance, it would fit fairly well.

    Yes it's really amazing what they are doing with the face animations. The new models will be amazing too i'm sure.
    I remember the emote animations from the murloc suit in Borean Thundra. Now I have seen these and they really crack me up too.
