WoW Moviewatch: Polar bear mount

With Patch 2.3 landing on the PTR, it seems like the special mount news is never ending. Flying machines, special Hippogryphs, PvP Hawkstrider mounts and the new bear mount from Zul'Aman are all new choices available to players when the patch goes live.
This video shows a player on a polar bear mount. I have to assume a private server was used. But I can't tell if the polar bear mount is a modification of the Zul'Aman bear mount or something truly in the game. Either way, get your Golden Compass fix by checking out the short video above.

Nice but should not get peoples hopes up, thats obviously a skinning job done over another mount(probably a kodo, going by size). The angles give it away. No saddle either. Blizzard mounts just don't come that rough, and un-polished.

Why always using this freaking phsyco music?

yeah, at least read the descrip next time :P
A cool polar bear model change for world of warcraft mounts. I did not create this model, I am just showing it in action. Enjoy!

PvP halkstrider? Does that mean there is a PvP Elekks?

You assume a private server was used? No.
If you actually read the summary of the video before posting it you would know that it's simply a model change.

#1 exactly. There is no bridle or saddle and the mount isnt scaled very well with the player.
I have to say shens on this one.

The Winterspring cat mount? It doesn't have a saddle

The first thing that popped into my mind. The answer can only be 'YES', if there is actually coming a PvP Hawkstrider.
I can already see myself riding a huge black Elekk in my black gladiator gear, knocking on Ogrimmar's gate!

It would be a great WotLK mount though!

Golden Compass, anyone?

What's the song?

If you muck around with wow modelviewer it allows you to mount yourself on most other models, this is the same thing, probably on a private server.

@10 - Something from Soil's second album. Don't know which one, Soil tends to be liked by the younger, virgin metallers.

Thats an edit using the already existing polar bear model. The actual mount has armor.
