Biletooth Gnasher
The Biletooth Gnasher currently lists Argus as a drop source.

There is a new mount from fishing, the Pond Nettle. It is speculated to be another mount similar to the Sea Turtle in that it is a random chance to drop from pools either on the Broken Isles or Argus.

Lucid Nightmare
Sourced from the Puzzler’s Desire, the Lucid Nightmare is speculated to be another secret mount similar to Riddler’s Mind Worm or Voidtalon of the Dark Star. Currently it is unknown on how to acquire it.

They said in 7.3 when you unlock pets and mounts, you get some unlock toast, what does it look like?

[Korru]

i only like the lightforged frame and the zeppelin since i have a thing for mechanical mounts

[Dastreus]

Man, I am so used to seeing new mounts and thinking "yep, I won't be getting that because I am not a hardcore raider/pvper" and the Lightforged golem was cool, but noooo 500k gold. At least the Ray looks cool.

[A dot Ham]

Shackled Ur'zul is about to become my new favorite mount... and the thing that keeps me up at night.

[TheRickyB]

are the rare mount drops just normal rares or are we back to a spawn timer we got to wait for?

[Ganksinatra]

These mounts look cool, but 500k for that mount? No thanks. I love how people were angry when it was 50k, so Bliz's answer is to make it 10x more expensive.

Also, who is the mouthbreather at Blizzard who decided to start patching at 7am and have it run until 3pm? Is it too hard to patch at.....oh, I dunno......2am and stop at 10am? You know, when 90% of the US population would be offline? Heck, on the east coast, it'll be 5pm earliest. They need to start pulling down servers BY REGION, during non peak times, not attempting to "thread the needle" on all of them.

Man 25 gladiators mounts... wish they start adding older mounts to bmah or something.

If anyone and everyone could have them, they would have no value. Wishing for things to be obtained easily is what ruins this game.

[Deleted]

Ahh some cool looking mount! I like most of them!

But, that the crystal bird should be scaled up a bit. Its painful to see that giant wrestler riding her! :P Will break her spine.

Also i like the built-in phasers on the wings! Pew-pew!

Same with plague proto drake and old zg mounts.. oh wait..

[Razorice]

Can't wait to get my hands on Lightforged Warframe.

[Deleted]

Looking forward to getting...most of these! Don't pvp and don't raid so those are out of the question, but the rare drops and rep mounts will be in my collection soon enough!

[zEmini]

New moutns but no new Storm Dragons? Meh

[Daan]

Mount reward for heroic Argus? I already see the annoying sellrun wave...

[Boogieknight]

These mounts look cool, but 500k for that mount? No thanks.

I know. That was my first reaction too. Like how much money do they think I have?

[Raelyn]

I was very sad that both MMO-champ and wowhead are incorrectly stating that the Vicious War Fox is available. It isn't it was the first thing I went to do when the patch landed and it isn't available at the vendor.

Please update this! The Bear became available, the Fox did not. Next season I guess...

Was so, so bummed out.

*Edited a typo.

[Predestined]

500,000 g for a mount? Is Blizzard crazy? Even the 120 k for the reforging/transmog mount was nuts. I realize that peeps who spend a lot of time playing the game may be able to afford hundreds of thousands for mounts from the black market auction house, but this is a little nuts. Two expansions from MoP and 5x price inflation is actually abusive to its fan base.
