Collector’s Edition = Frosty = Stinker = /cheer
Allow me a brief moment to exult in my accomplishments …
My Collector’s Edition (CE) arrived sometime this morning while I was asleep. (I left a note on the door instructing FedEx to leave the package, complete with signature, in case for some reason they were inclined to take it back with them if I wasn’t here!)
Upgrading my main account to the CE was very smooth. Either no one is trying to upgrade their account right now, or Blizzard did a good job anticipating demand.
The very first thing I did in-game was hit a mailbox and pick up Frosty, the CE mini-pet — largely because I knew this would round out my collection of mini-pets and get me Stinker, the adorable skunk.
The second thing I did was get a picture of the three of us together! (Okay, two pictures, digitally altered to look like one.) Why isn’t Cloud (my Twilight Runner) in this family portrait? Because he is taking the picture!
No, no … actually he’s staying as far away from Stinker as possible because Stinker has a ‘thing’ for black cats, and Cloud is afraid that dark grey is too close for comfort.

Congratz Mania unfortunatly i didnt get my own hands on a collecters edition in time and now im paying the price oh and gratz and the stinky skunk too! (by the way im back from my LONG LONG trip from work and its good to be back on mania’s arcania so hello everyone!)… should have gotten the collecters addition
Managed to be 13th in line, got my collectors edition, and my Frosty (did you know you get him on all your toons?) Also for those of you holding your breath: BREAKING NEWS!!!!
Virgul Blighthounds are TAMABLE!!! Thats right, no glitch, they are wolves!!! unfortunitally the blue version is still classified as Demon. but hey, I know what I am nabbing!!
Also, update on Rhino and worms…they are TANKS! wow can they tank, big mobs small mobs, these things are awsome, Stampede knocks back the target in a huge bang, and Acid spits armour reduction turns tough monsters squishy, I am having a blast out here..though I lost my scarf to an over-zelus King Krush earlier…
I’m happy for you!
That’s just awesome, concrats. :D I’m hoping to get my CE too next week. Not a single CE is sold in my hometown (D:), so I ordered my copy online today. Frosty’s undead looks goes so well with my Ghost Saber and Deathcharger mount. <3 When I get my Frosty and my Jubling hatches, I’ll need three more pets for Stinker. Squee!
ok, another update on worms…how good of a tank are they? well, foolish me (still lv 70) has decide to go explore some very high lv areas when I was just ambushed by a lv 77 Carrion stipper (spider) and a lv 78 forgotten depth slayer (spidern-taur thing) and my pet tanked them both at the same time and I only needed to cast mend pet twice. WORM POWER!!
I got the CE :D sadly i still have a fews days to wait for shipping…
My husband grabbed us a couple of copies last night…no CE for me unfortunately. But the new pets are awesome. The eagles are a bit annoying to tame as they fly around, but they’re really cute. I also tamed one of the northrend worms and he’s an EXCELLENT tank…don’t plan on getting rid of him. I also dropped my devilsaur for a chance at the new worgs…and my GM agrees that she looks better than my ramps wolf…so bye-bye. Gratz on Frosty, and I’m hoping to get the little skunk myself soon…only need 10 pets.
mom and i both got the ce for our zombie whelp armies.still a bit annoyed that we had to delete alts to get our deathknights (altitis,we have it).but we wernt playing them and its not like they wernt hunters.wish i could get the green deathknight tauren skins for my hunters…
were* no way in hell well delete our hunters…
I got mine too. ^ ^ Seven o’clock at wal-mart…some flustered employees…and numbered slips. Went and had a drink with buddies then went back around 11 or so.
Boy, were there death glares of doom by the people who thought they were first in line.
He’s quite possibly my favorite non-combat pet.
Yay congrats!=)looking really good!
I was personally so stupid, that actually forgot i had european account when i bought my CE WOTLK!)
Congrats =)
(Sadly no CE was sent to my shop this year…better luck on 4.0 I hop =D)
Lucky you… no CE for me, either. Oh, well.
I can’t believe I spec’d away from BM! I’m going back as soon as I ding 71 to pick up Tyrantus. Booyah. Also the Jormungar larvae.
Gratz Mania…
I’ve had stinker on Darknez for a little while now, but Frosty is far better (and bigger). :)
“No, no … actually he’s staying as far away from Stinker as possible because Stinker has a ‘thing’ for black cats, and Cloud is afraid that dark grey is too close for comfort.”
Lol, old cartoon reference! I forgot what it was called, but it had Pepe la Peux (sp?) who was always stalking that poor black kitty.
Anyway, @ topic: GRATS!! I’m still trying to get Stinker. Although I’ll have to remember to keep him away from my Bombay… :P
WOOT!! I got TWO yes TWO CEs HAH!! Nee ner nee ner neeee nerrrr…..ok I’m done gloating now. I had to reserve them special MONTHS in advance, my store only got them in if they were reserved way in advance and they stoped taking reservations for them like a month and a half ago. So just a little advice for next expansion (if there is one) make your reservations as soon as you find out there is gonna be a ce, and another thing that helps get your reservation as soon as you find out about the expansion and you can upgrade it to ce later. Well thats what I did any way, good luck in the future.
You’re looking fat on that picture. :P
Beware if Stinker speaks French. They already have the Love is in the Air Achievement. ;-)
I sooo wanted the CE edition!Couldn’t get my hands on one anywhere.*cry*
My Tranquil Mechanical Yeti will still have my number one pet spot.He looks pretty happy to me.

I knew the black cat thing was some sort of cultural reference, but you know I couldn’t figure out what. Thanks for reminding me of Pepe Le Pew, everyone!
Cotytto: I don’t have a yeti on Mania yet, but I’m on the lookout for one! He goes well with the rhino.
Jorna: That’s my snazzy new purple Argent Dawn skirt. Actually, I hate it and I hope I get to replace it soon. I look so .. matronly!
I wish the Argent Dawn skirt was a little shorter on my male Dwarf Hunter, then I could call it a kilt.
I love Frosty! He squeaks so cutely.
All my toons are loving their Frostys too ^_^
I’m so torn, I have 2 druids, a rogue & my hunter, which do I level first?
I pre-ordered my CE ages ago, but had to wait til 1:09pm for UPS to deliver it : /
Congratulations on your pets!
Congratulations, Mania! My pet collecting character still needs another 9 pets–but Stinker shall be mine!
