You have until November 11th to switch your account to Battle.net, but the penguin pets are already in-game. I converted my account when I was first able to (which has had its ups and downs) and I logged on this afternoon to find Mr. Chilly in my mailbox on all characters.
Like most Blizzard promotional pets, they are Bind on Account and sent to every character you have on every realm. They are also collectible, in that they don't disappear from your inventory after you "learn" them. So, if you have already switched to Battle.net, log in and pick up your new little penguin buddy.

Nice, this is the same model as the penguin they gave out during WotLK beta. I'm glad they brought it back as Pengu with its terrifying red eyes unnerve me....

DK Penguin VS Demonic Penguin - FIGHT!!!!

Pengu's red eyes are being removed in 3.3 :P They'll be turned into "normal" blue eyes.

Signing up now but why on earth do they need my home address and telephone number?
I appreciate it's "IF" you want to use the blizzard store but what "IF" i don't?
Irritating companies demanding spam details... Grrrr.

Call me crazy, but if you have an account at all, I would imagine they already have that information. You know, unless you plain out lied when you originally created your account.
I know, I'm wacky full of logic.

Sorry Sergeant Sarcasm!
How is your "I imagine" statement more logical than what i said exactly?
With a wow account i am making it specifically to buy stuff.
I'm making a battlenet account purely because i have too, i don't however HAVE to buy anything on the battlenet account. You don't merge the wow account untill the end of the sign up so there is no way for them to know they NEED my address, they certainly don't need my phone number. I live in the UK, they are never going to call me.
I've done it but i find it annoying to permanently be telling the same companies my personal details, over and voer and over and over again.
Was that logical enough for you or do i need to employ an awful attempt at sarcasm?

Pengu and Mr. Chilly both look the same except for the eyes. Am I seeing things, but weren't the eyes nicer on Pengu before Chilly took the scene as if there was a switch?
Maybe I've worked too hard this week (other clerk is off so understaffed and all that), and it seems my reliable brain cells have been pushed out of my ears today, but I seem to recall the mana worm suffered something like that where it looked one way, and then they put another mana worm on the AD vendor and it looks like the original one I used to have from BC, except the BC one now looks like it had all it's magic sucked out... Gah, ramble, sorry.

The detailing on the textures and the colors are different for Mr. Chilly and Pengu. You can get a good look at them on Warcraftpets.com.

Grr, i hope it's there when i reactivate my account in a few days.
Raynier Oct 16th 2009 10:13AM

I rather like this minipet,
it is a nice treat.
it is not that the one from the walrus people whose name escapes me at the moment is hard to get I just can't seem to remember to do their dailies everyday.
Kel Oct 15th 2009 8:12PM
I converted my account several months ago. Do I not get the pet? Just curious.
Ayiano Oct 15th 2009 8:16PM
Yes, you do. I converted mine when it was first available. I logged onto one of my bank alts today to find it in the inbox. It may just take some time to send it out.
Note: The sender was not "Blizzard" or anything along those lines, but a normal character, likely one of your server's GMs.
Boydboyd Oct 15th 2009 8:22PM
No Ayiano.
The sender is Breanni, from warcraftpets.com fame.
She's located in Dalaran, in the building to the left of Krasus Landing.
Ayiano Oct 15th 2009 8:43PM
Oh, well then nvm. The thing is still cute. :P
rawrawrawr Oct 16th 2009 12:10AM
Breanni also sends out the Skunk and Fawn minipets as rewards for the 50 and 75 minipet achievements.
