I think it's alluding to the year of the metal ox. Apparently the Chinese zodiac has 5 elements with each year (wood, earth, water, metal, fire), changing every two years. The dog doesn't seem to follow this motif but the other 3 seem to do
Wow, that's just hideous.
So basically, Blizz has cemented a permanent subscription for 12 years from me because of these Asian Zodiac mounts. Clever. I ain't mad. Still, tricksy bastards they are.
Might look good with the Blood Elf heritage armor!
lovely a unique store mount only obtainable via 6 month purchase or store
lets go whales!
I mean, for people like me that have been on a 6 month plan, it's basically just a free mount every 6 months or so. I'll take it!
I just bought the 6 month sub yesterday (included that transmog set)So does this mean I'll get this soon, too?
Thousands of tauren fans are certainly creaming their pants now ^^
It's chinese new year, my friend.
my god...i mean, what the hell?
10 days early for the chinese new year, but this is just a free mount if you're on a 6 month sub so who cares right? Token prices though, must be shooting through the roof.Does this mean this is the first Ox mount, besides the incoming its a reskineed such and such a model.

This has to be the ugliest mount in game.
Not sure if anyone else is hit with this, but I just got the mount as a gift in my battle.net client. I accepted the gift like I've done with all the past mounts, but the mount hasn't appeared in my game. Either the gift service is taking a long time, or they didn't actually give me the mount. Weird. If it doesn't show soon, I'll obviously contact support, but still.EDIT: Restart battle.net client to fix it. Got my mount that I'll forget about in a day, hooray!
It's not my fave...but of course I'm going to get it! 6 months of WOW is better than Rehab for drugs and alcohol. THIS is my drug of choice :)
I really hope that this is 2 months before "Aprils fool" joke!
