MMO champion has datamined a (yet) untextured model. It seems to be based on the talbuk skeleton and chineese/japaneese mythical kirin beast

Commento di Syio

Well thank goodness there's a slightly more accurate depiction of a quilin in WoW. Always bothered me why 'quilen' referred to stone lions.

25 bucks to purchase a chimera made up of each of the great pandaria gods, Ox, Tiger, Dragon and Crane. Enjoy!

Commento di 927253

...Well.
I have to say, I'll buy this.

Better than that retarded flying lion.

Blizzard updated their facebook with a screenshot of a new gorgeous mount, and the tagline "Across the land or in the sky, the Swift Windsteed can soon be your ride." With the Cinder Kitten unveiled on the PTR a few weeks ago, it makes sense that we'd also be getting a Blizzard Store mount soon.

Get your wallets and purses ready.

Commento di Reignac

I want it.
I don't care how you get it.
I must have it.

Commento di vindurza

finally a blizz store mount that doesn't look like it belongs to a paladin * why down vote it looks good with shamans/druids*

Commento di 1047121

What an ugly mount, it looks like Santa Claus' handicapped reindeer or something...
WG is much cooler.

Commento di Meloric

A kirin! Could it be? These are my favourite middle eastern mythical beasts!

Commento di fridrmodir

With the fairly obvious throwback to He-man in Redini della Tigre Cavalcabile Rossa degli Shandaren, I can't help but feel that this mount is surely a nod to She-Ra also! Her mount was "Swift Wind"... And then the choice of coloring for both the mount and the blood elf fem's hair in the intro pic... ;)

This Mount is now available for purchase from the Blizzard Store. All characters on a single account will have access to this if purchased.

IF there was a "Which is the ugliest mount ever" I think this would take the prize...... My lord this thing is horrible.

This mount is one of the few mounts with special emote animations(this one has /eat).

This is now available to be puchased for $25 or 20 Euros from the Blizzard Store (US / EU).

Commento di jojopojo64

To those wondering what kind of "ugly" mount this is, it's a stylized Kirin or Qilin from Chinese mythology, known to bring good luck and fortune and is often compared to the unicorn in western culture.

Personally, been waiting for a mount like this in an Asian-stylized expansion, though kinda wish it wasn't a Blizz store mount (but not entirely unsurprised, especially when it popped up in the last PTR). Still, again I say to you folks who think it's ugly or shouldn't be in the Blizzard Store - Don't buy it then. Save your hot air for whatever else will rattle your cages in 5.2, because I know there'll be plenty.

On an offnote, since this creature was supposed to give good luck, maybe it'll boost your luck when using those damn Elder Charms for loot...?

Commento di Nilyna

It's been mailed by Mei Francis (after redeeming the code) with the following notice:

"<Name>

It should come as no surprise that the mist-shrouded lands of Pandaria are host to a wild array of exotic beasts, a rare few of them suitable as mounts.

Behold, one of the very rarest and most Majestic...

Just bought this mount. For those saying "What the hell is it?" It's a Kirin, AKA "Chinese Unicorn".

Good things about it:

-High rez model. The armor actually moves and settles against the windsteed itself and they fixed the stiff whisker bug. It's ears and tail bounce with movement. Overall, it's very well animated.
-Unique running animation. The Kirin is a chimeric creature largely based on deer, so it makes sense that its ground run is more of a hopping bound than a smooth gallop. This animation is kind of "bouncy" like raptors and cranes though, which may make some players seasick.
-Unique mountspecial. It rears up and twirls around while flailing its hooves.
-Obviously modernized but otherwise fairly accurate depiction of a traditional Kirin.

Cons:

-The mount has been accused of being "derpy" looking and I think this is because of the thick armor/bridle on its face. It hides the long muzzle and the red nose on white fur from the front view makes it look like a monkey.
-It's small, though this may be a pro or con depending on who you ask. It's definitely not flashy and probably won't stand out in a crowd.
-Personal opinion, but white is this model's worst color. The green, red and especially black ones all were much prettier than the dull white they went with and the other color's noses didn't contrast as much.

Basically this is the closest thing possible to a graphically updated talbuk or non-druid deer mount around. People who like that will enjoy this mount. Those who want a big, flashy e-peen stroker though will probably want to stick with something else.

Dear Blizzard,

Why must you find new ways for me to spend my hard earned money?

/mountspecial will cause the mount to rear up on it's hind legs and do a 360. Very good animation with this. (Must be on ground for this to work)

Commento di 872986

Just some info: While flying, this mount appears to run on a cloud. Unlike Tyrael's Charger, as an example, it does not float and bob side to side, but runs in slow motion. That being said, if you strife while on this mount, the mount does not have an animation for strife, he simply runs in place while moving left or right. Also, not only is the /mountspecial look cool, but this mount has a very gruff sounding "growl". If you adjust your volume or turn off the music you may notice that while flying and moving, this mount grunts!

Commento di jstrahan

For $25! I don't think so. $5, maybe $10 at the most. (I am not such an addict as others. Only slightly. :) )
Down-voted for complaining about the cost? In my opinion, an inappropriate use of the 'down arrow'.
(Update) So, I should be happy to pay an outrageous sum for this? (2nd update) I guess I should never complain or tell my honest opinion.

Commento di SammeZhao

When I was doing daily at Brunnhildar Village in Storm Peaks of Northrend, I had a good laugh when I mounted on this windsteed.
The fact is that after doing a series of questline, you are transformed into a female fighter like everyone else in the village. However I believe Blizzard hasn't really considered for this location, and when you mount, the windsteed appear so small under your legs, as if you are going to crush it in seconds. Look at the screenshot.

Commento di kkqj27

This is an amazing mount. I really like it alot. Its hard for some players to get some epic mounts. It is very nice for blizzard to be doing this.

Arceus makes his entrance

Commento di 1079681

Another thing that should be taken into consideration before purchasing this mount. It snorts. All the time. Like a wild stallion. This is a pretty neat effect when it's running along but when you're standing at idle it can be mildly atrocious, like the constant crackling flame effect from the BM hunter Corehound pets.

Commento di kinigit

I like this mount. Not so much on ground but it is a pretty good flying mount.

Makes more sense for a Pandaren monk to be flying around on this than the vast majority of the other mounts in the game.

This mount really does grow on you so don't just go by the photos.

Commento di pangel

After buying a stardust pegasus, a flaming winged lion and a golden dragon i think a jumping armored talbuk falls a little short of my expectations.
On the other hand the RaF program mounts keep getting more excithing with every new specimen: a zebra, a rocket, a nightwing, what´s next?

Oh yes, very nice in the high texture rendering blizzard...

.. to bad you only ever design these mounts (the same as they do any armor they make now) with human male model as a reference point for the rider.

Have you see what this looks like with other races? The spikes in the side jut right though there knees... jesus...

best mount ever!

Commento di MABGamer6407

The creature seems to be based off of the actual Qilin. (not the Warcraft Creature who are more based on Foo Dogs or Chinese guardian lions, or shishi) Very unique model, looks to be a sort of Talbuck at first glance.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Qilin

Commento di Marilana

I can't say for sure but I believe Blizzard may have fixed an animation bug with this mount very sneakily. When i first bought it (back when it came out) the Swift Windsteed would rock back and forth in an almost comical manner when mounted and running on the ground.

As of logging in today on my Paladin Draenei and mounting up, I was surprised to find that the animation for it seems to have improved for when you're mounted on the ground with it. It's back and forth rocking is far less extreme and your character no longer flies back and forth like they're riding a bucking bull.

Commento di Jornak

I'd like to mention that it looks good on a male Worgen, who often have problems with kissing mount-necks because of their protruded heads.
Not on the windsteed - which makes me very happy, since most of my chars are Worgen :)
Submitted a screenshot, too, so you can judge for yourself.

Commento di unholydriver

When faced with obstacles on the ground, it tends to stand at some strange and entertaining angles.

Hey, Swift Windsteed is easly one of the uglyest mounts ingame,
it is a must have if ur into buying mounts from the eshop xD...

got a video of it that shows it in live action :D: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cMcmkP3UCYQ

Commento di furymask

This mount may very well have the best detail out of all the store mounts, but because the mount is on the smallish size it gets overlooked. If you want a nicely detailed "kirin" or "Quillen" chinese mount, or just like a mount with great detail that doesn't suck up a quarter of the screen, this might be the mount for you.

This is one of the unobtainable mounts which still shows as uncollected on the official WoW armory.

Below I've made a table containing all of these mounts which have become unobtainable. This table excludes items that are still purchasable on the Black Market Auction House.
