Now just about every unique mount that isn't a boar or a wolf is placed in the cash shop, the Siege of Orgrimmar raid mount is a Kor'kron Annihilator. The moose mount from Mythic Archimonde was also intended to be a cash shop mount, but it was changed after much outburst (at least they listen). If you don't mind me asking, what are the equivalents of the Winged Guardian, Enchanted Fey Dragon, Swift Windsteed, Grinning Reaver, and the Warforged Nightmare?

    Grinning Reaver is a reskin of the bug mount from the Scepter of Azj'Aqir, Winged Guardian is saber mount with wings and a different face and bits of armor, Enchanted Fey Dragon is a reskinned drake (the same way the various drake mounts have been since the Netherwing mounts), the Swift Windsteed is a reskinned Talbuk, and the Warforrged Nightmare is simply a horse reskinned with different armor.

    Now they may not have an equivalent that is nothing more than recolor, but all of them are reskins of existing personal mounts available in the game...save the bat mount (and even that one has long been a flight path mount type).

    Incredibly smart rekins then (other than the Talbuk, don't know how I missed that), but I wouldn't consider a Drake mount to be an alternative to the Enchanted Fey Dragon, nor would I consider a horse as an alternative to the Warforged Nightmare. Would be in similar fashion to calling Kirin an alternative Sleipnir, their base skeleton is the same but otherwise it has a different model and textures too.
