Use: Right Click to summon and dismiss Willy. Wake up, little guy!
This pet is chosen among four vanity pets as a reward after completing a chain of Children's Week quests that begin in Outland. These quests may be accessed by characters level 60+. See the Guide to Children's Week for a detailed walkthrough of this chain. Other rewards for the final quest include Egbert, Peanut, and Legs. Collecting all four pets on the same character is possible (over the course of four years) since the quests are repeatable each year.
Willy's eye-beam animation activates every 3 minutes. If no critter is in range, the timer resets.
This pet is also available as a FigurePets collectible (series 2).
I had forgotten that Willy was a murderer of the hapless critters of the world.
Love it!
One of the only pets that has good use of the ROT ability sence it has a critter ability also....now if it would just stay awake. teehee
This guy is one of my favorite subtle jokes in all of WoW.
Yup.
EXTERMINATE!
Sorry, I just couldn't resist. Does anyone else think that Willy looks like a Dalek (Minus the casing) from Doctor Who? A small, tentacled creature with one eye and a thirst for exterminating things.
I really want a Magic Batlte-Stone. I use Willy in my main battle team and he has definate disadvantage compared to my rare pets, but the stone remains elusive.
Unfortunately, Rezzelyn's link is out of date, and now only leads to a boring advert for 5.2. Shame.
just used a magic Flawless Battle-Stones on it for try if working on no wild pet, and it worked.... my willy is 155 -11 -11 now ^^
Edit: yes, it does.
...Heh.
Hours of critter-nuking fun!!
Edit: Toxic Wasteling "eats" critters now.
Hes just SO weird.
Just wish he hadn't been nerfed to have such a long timer on his Eyebeam. Why Blizzard? WHY? Were they worried Willy would make critters an endangered species?
There was clearly a lot of attention given to this model, especially because they took a pre-existing creature and had to "baby-ize" it. The amount of detail is clear especially with the texture of the flesh and pupil. His cute little teeth are my favorite part. And the noises he makes are perfect. <3
