Goblin and worgen forum icons live; still no female worgen

Since the Friends & Family phase of Cataclysm testing is currently active, it only makes sense that the private forum for testers is also up and running, as it has been in expansions past. And with that forum comes new icons for players who've rolled goblins and worgen! To the right, check out the basic (pre-85) icons for male and female goblins and male worgen, straight from the official forum art assets.Unsurprisingly, and hilariously, female worgen still don't exist, even in forum icon form. Unconfirmed rumors state that the model isn't even in the alpha client at this point. Wonder what the holdup has been for these past nine months.
Or maybe this is just a special icon for female worgen shadow priests. That must be it.

That Male Goblin looks like Samuel from Heroes. Or just a carnie in general. A crazy, crazy carnie.

I was about to post the same thing.

I think the Male Goblins look like Adam Sessler from X-Play on G4Tv

I was going to go with a Greaser, or some generic 1950s motorcycle biker.

I'm thinking mutant Bruce Campbell. Possibly Evil Ash. :)

I think the male goblin looks like there is an octopus on his head sucking his brain out.
Either that or the goo that makes "Venom" from Spiderman is beginning to claim its new host.

The first thing that popped into my head was Stephen Dorff from Blade.
Female goblins are *really* looking sharp. Given the uncertainty about makeovers for old races, Blizzard, hear me out: the cool factor matters.

He looks adorable, like a "bad boy" pop idol gone terribly wrong. I love it! Male goblins may be more than just my rogue when Cataclysm hits.

Man,I dont care if everyone makes a Worgen, at least they are better to have "on mass" then blood elves. Sorry Horde.

You say that now...

I see all the anime gay elves didn't like the comment.

Blood Elves have an amazing back story and lore. Just because Blizzard made them come off as a gay man doesn't mean they are a "gay" race. I would love to give you a piece of advice, grow up and gain some maturity.

That wasn't very nice

@AMS
No, it had nothing to do with the comment.
Like all elves, we just hate trolls.

Who else will be rolling a female goblin JUST from the looks of the icon.... agreed =D
Quasimofo May 5th 2010 3:15PM
I've been planning on rolling one since gobs were announced. Warrior tank, naturally. "Stand back giant cow, I'll protect you!"
tatsumasa May 5th 2010 3:31PM
did you just agree with yourself?
Tumleren May 5th 2010 3:40PM
That's how gnomes have felt for the last 5 years
Flavio May 5th 2010 3:53PM
Haha!
I already have my female Blood Elf Death Knight tank and I'm about to roll a even smaller tank next expansion =D
