Blizzard have me over a barrel at this point. I've invested so much into pet collecting over the last 18 years that now I feel I have no choice but to buy whatever stupid promo item they release, just for the pet. 

@Escalus people have been selling loot cards that give in-game items (pets, mounts, toys etc) on eBay forever. I think if Blizzard really had an issue with it we'd know about it by now. Blizzard can't prove that you "bought" it from a 3rd party. I might have been gifted it from someone who got it legitimately, I might have had it lying around from old loot card packs, I might have been given the code by family in the US, who bought the promo item. Do you see how much a grey area it is?

@Escalus Mini Tyrael can still be bought on eBay and can be redeemed in the US. If you look at all the top collectors in the US, they all have that pet. I'm in the EU but I still had to buy it on eBay, as I imagine many players have had to do. So I wasn't counting him at all. Lurky, on the other hand, wasn't a promotional pet as such. He was given to people who bought the TBC collectors edition as an apology for various issues. 

@Escalus most of the people complaining about these pets never had access to those other promotional pets either. The vast majority of promotional pets have been on servers in China. I think there has only ever been ONE promotional pet in Europe and that was back in 2006. Those of us who are upset about all the latest US promos are from Europe, South America, Australia and South Africa.

Just to confirm that this pet is/was available on the UK Blizzard store. I ordered my funko and received the code for the pet in an email a couple of days later. 

Just to let you know that the murloc funko and Brrrgl is/was available in the UK too, on the UK Blizzard Store. I bought the pop and the code for Brrrgl was emailed to me.

More US-only promotions?? Why? Do they not realise that people in other countries play this game too. 

For those of us in the rest of the world, there's been reports that we CAN redeem the code if we know someone in the US who can get it for us. 

I really hope the gummi worm pet is available in the EU. 

That's a great bonus surprise! 

He doesn't appear to be BoP any longer. My husband was traded this pet by a guildie who got an extra one. 

120 attempts and never did get this pet. So frustrating to have a rare pet drop on a limited time boss. 

Pets look cool but I hate that change to the bonus event!

It's baby Cringer! <3

As of 25/12/20, there appears to be two models of Jingles, one with holiday garb and one without. There seems to be no control over which you get and you can't release/cage in order to pick up another on an alt. 

Excited to have some pets to collect again!

@Radriegal as someone fairly near the top of the leaderboards, it takes me barely no time at all to quickly log on once a month and update and I don't mind doing it in the slightest. It's not difficult or time consuming.

I quite like this. It will mean only the most active pet collectors are show in the rankings, which is nice.

Wow, this is going to keep us busy for a while!

It's been a while since we had new Children's Week quests and pets so I think I'm looking forward to those the most. :)
