The Arrival of Patch 4.2!

UPDATE: A change to the model of both Hippogryph pets was also discovered in this patch. In the new model, they've lost their baby fat and feature a sleeker head and beak. It's unclear whether this change was intended for both pets or just one to help differentiate the two. We'll update the model(s) on our site as soon as we know for sure.

Patch 4.2 is here and with it comes many lovely treats for all of us pet collectors!
