They’re available for several months, they’re all cheap (minus the mount), like 2? things are new models the rest are reskins
If you’re that desperate to own them all, you can 100% earn the gold to buy the entire stock before they go away
OR you can just buy the ones you’ll actually use, like I did
I mean, I could understand if whatever raid content was popped in Timewalking & there were ‘hard-mode’ tactics (or an NPC to activate it @ start of raid) to earn whatever fabled mount – If it’s harder to earn than when it was current, I wouldn’t see what the issue was.
As for KSM mounts – I thought keystones were always scaled to the current expansion’s max level & thus always sorta current? 
Gladiator mounts, as much as it bitters me to say – Yeah I can understand those. The only thing that could justify that I would say is if they doubled or tripled the required wins after X rating is earned to get a token to earn 1 transmog set or mount — However I’ve seen a few suggest that, and it becomes a controversial subject, so I’m not really bothered to argue that forward & deal with that chaos either way. lol
Tovi … They removed my appreciation ‘call-out’ thread. 
I requested an appeal but they gave me a response that said they can’t view or restore threads after they’ve been deleted 
So … Yeah 
Correct, and then later down the road they change their tune when they realize what’s going on. It’s a very interesting phenomenon
That’s true, but at the same time you need also understand that racial transmog designs shouldn’t be gatekeeped as well. A human can wear a Stormwind armor and it’s available in WoD. A few of the new items will not be available unless you dish out and compete with other players for a high sum. And on top of that, we don’t know if the item will be often in the rotation as well.
Do you see the problem here now?
This is not the problem.
Oh, they will. You can be sure of this. The moment they want to wear a heritage based-design (and there are only a few), so they don’t look a theme park expansion character, they will come and check everything out. You underestimate the issue here.
This is not the issue here.
You really don’t think your postings through. Obviously I have two Troll and a Wildhammer ready for the items I want, but unlike you, I also think of other players.

Then go and start one.
You people really need to read the topic and postings, before making any comments. It has already stated from both users and OP, that the OP don’t want to buy everything and that’s not the point of the discussion.
I really don’t see the problem. Everything is gatekept in WoW in someway. Quests are gate-keeping, raids are gate-keeping, and gold is gate-keeping.
This is just par for the course.
I swear, Blizzard has it so good. EA and Ubsoft would kill to have consumers groomed the way Blizzard has them. Whereas everything is an uphill battle to monetize for them, you got Blizzard monetizing using every trick in the book - FOMO, Raid-Ready Boosts that also basically sell Exalted Reps (Pay-to-win/Pay-for-convenience), BMAH (via WoW Token) - and their own consumers will not even take a day off after New Years defending them for doing so.
Participation trophies are not just about doing the challenge or limited time event while it was difficult or whatever, it’s also about doing it in a specific time frame.
Sure but what does have to do with participating when current? The mount model represents the xpac and the color represents what season you did.
So you’re saying it’s ok for pvp’ers to get exclusives but not pve’ers? That’s a bit unfair, don’t ya think?
Token sales do not create gold, they transfer between players. The items off this vendor cost gold, and are a gold sink. How effective will it be as a gold sink? That depends on how many people buy stuff off the vendor.
They should remove more items from the game honestly.
Maybe, but a gold sink by definition removes currency from circulation, which has a deflationary effect. Token sales are incentivized when there is inflation in the game economy, and they achieve that by constantly dumping dumping gold on us. World quests now regularly give ~500 - 1000 gold. Back in the day daily quests gave 15 gold and you could only do 25 a day.
If anything, an effective gold sink will help players feel like they do not need to buy a token for gold just to keep up with the Joneses. Please note that I am not suggesting this vendor is going to be so effective that it will neutralize inflation completely. It will just have some deflationary effect vs. a situation where there is no gold sink vendor added.
You’re no RPer, you are allowed to dress like a muppet though. RPer have not many options available for Trolls, because just because it looks “Troll”, it could be either Darkspear or Zandalari. Two different approaches. And locking away a Wildhammer headgear based on their regular cosmetic design (the white feathers) is also a no go.
Sometimes you need to look through the lenses of another person to see what’s the problem. And this is a massive problem, which does not affect you in the slightest but will become another Brutosaur-issue moving forward, but this time for transmogs and the endless FOMO-discussions.
And this is actually sad, if you think about it.
Since your replies are nonsensical, Ill retouch this by saying… look at my name, class, and tmog. And say that again xD
So you are telling me you have toons lined up for these exact items already? These 3 specific items? For exact mogs?
Highly unlikely.
Who are you to assume I don’t think of others? Your post is a selfish complaint, even attacking devs, which have no say in these types of things.
Its not. Its 3 items of recolors. Its a first world problem of cosmetics. Rp has nothing to do with this issue, you are just using it as a poor crutch for this thread lol.
Didn’t you see the link in the reply I posted you above?
Yes. And no, it’s a problem. You’ll find out later on. Was the same issue as with the AH-mount, but people will not constantly cry about this then.
Didnt care enough to look. Just like claiming someone playing a hunter, named quiver, using a very specific quiver mog has no concept of class aesthetics xD
That is a completely unrelated issue.
The brutosaur is a convenience issue and there is nothing else like it in the game.
Where as tmog is literally tmog. It serves zero functionality or accessibility like the brutosaur.
You’ll need a way better comparison if you want to convince people.
Then we have nothing to discuss any further. You want something from me, not the other way around.
Your posting has been read but not acknowledged. Good day.
Great job acknowledging your own bias. Its okay for you to ignore points, but not others to ignore yours?
Troll harder please 
Its also your post. YOU have to defend the point. Its not my job to do your homework.
The OP is also false, because they’ll be on the BMAH in eight months. So they aren’t going away.
This was a fix to the BMAH people asked for. Hopefully we see old and new cycled through that vendor.
No, it’s a fix to the BMAH that people literally asked for. There have been threads about the BMAH issues and ideas asking to turn it into a straight up vendor. This is the in between compromise: half vendor, half BMAH. It’s a better addition to gold sinks than just the BMAH itself.
True, and best part, you don’t have to fight people over items.
I’m accurate here. FOMO in the sense, that you only have eight months to get them, until the roulette bidding game begins.
Exactly! And it’s why I’m super hoping we get old and new cycled through it. I may finally have a chance at stuff that isn’t gold capped by people coming to my dead server just to snipe stuff.
