I'll just wrap up the info we know.
Names in
italics are on a confirmed spot in the 'boss list', IE Flame Leviathan is number 1.
Names in
bold are the ones we have no confirmation on and may not be Ulduar bosses at all.
Flame Leviathan PictureOne such threat is the Flame Leviathan. Once you've plowed through the innumerable ranks of the iron army, you will be confronted by an enormous tank. Mimiron built the Flame Leviathan as part of the V0-L7R-0N weapons platform, and as a result, this tank packs quite a punch. Normal spells and abilities won't be enough to take down this juggernaut, so you'll have to rely on your siege vehicles to outmaneuver and defeat the boss. After wearing down the massive war machine, you will have to launch players onto the tank's back to destroy its
defense turrets and sabotage the Leviathan before you can move on. If you'd like an additional challenge beyond this frantic (but fun) fight, you can try your hand at one of the Flame Leviathan's different Hard Modes.
For example, spread throughout Ulduar's vehicle section are four Defense Towers you can destroy. The more Towers you leave intact, the harder the encounter with the Flame Leviathan will be, but the loot will also be better.
Freya
PictureOne of the Titan Keepers of Azeroth. In Sholazar, you aided her Avatar in fighting off the Scourge, but it appears that she has turned hostile and will be a boss in Ulduar. Not much else is known right now - Stay tuned!
Thorim
ElvisUPDATE: Seems the picture was either fake or is simply not depicting Thorim. Another albeit unclear picture has
surfaced.Another Titan gone bad, Thorim has been captured by his brother,
Loken, and will be a boss in Ulduar. No info here either - Hopefully more will surface soon!
Something interesting - Neither models nor achievement icons have surfaced for Thorim so far. This could mean that Loken and Yogg-saron has mutated or changed him beyond recognition... No confirmed info here, but it sure is something to think about.UPDATE: *Credits to ArgentSun* It seems he has, in fact, changed. Whether by old god influence or something else we knoweth not, but it seems he's taken inspiration from Elvis. Whether or not Veranus will feature in the encounter is still unknown.
Hodir
PictureSpent weeks getting up your rep with his
sons? Well, bad luck in for you then - It seems we're going to kill him off in Ulduar. Wonder how they're gonna take to THAT...
No tactics info yet. Check back soon for info.EDIT: With first view at Ulduar testing it appears that Hodir has been tested on American servers.
HP - 35,699,200 (Heroic Mode)
- Normal melee attacks for 25k damage on a well-geared warrior
- 8 Adds trapped in blocks of ice are around him, you can break the blocks (40,000 HP) to have them help you. They will randomly drop Toasty Fires throughout the fight.
- His aura called Biting Cold is using the same mechanics as Intense Cold during the fight against Keristrasza, it stacks up and damage increase over time. Moving will reset the stack. (This is also affected by the Toasty Fire, see below)
- Hodir casts "Flash Freeze" (9 seconds cast time), a spell that freezes the entire raid in blocks of ice.
- He will randomly spawn Icicles, they will create patch of ices on the ground as they drop. Standing on the ice when Hodir casts Flash Freeze prevents from being encased in a block of ice.
- You can also prevent Biting Cold and Freeze by staying next to a Toasty Fire in the room, however it will be removed by Flash Freeze. Warms nearby friendly creatures, preventing the effects of Freeze and Biting Cold, and increasing Spirit by 4. Toasty fire can be extinguished by falling ice or powerful frost magic.
- After Flash Freeze, Hodir will gain "Frozen Blows" and deal 70% reduced physical damage but each attack deals 40,000 additional frost damage.

He feeds on your tears.Also known as the Raid Destroyer, Algalon is a so-far unknown NPC which will be a boss in Ulduar. It has been speculated that he will be the optional 'Hard mode only' boss that Blizzard has talked about. No tactics yet.
General ZevaxI'll bet my left arm this is him.Sounds faceless, doesn't it? Well, with an achievement icon involving General Zevax and a 'facelessgeneral' model showing up, I don't think it's such a long shot. No tactics or lore background yet... zpooky eh? Come back soon, I'll dig up something.
Mimiron
He's gone to piecesWe don't know much about this guy other than the fact that he built the Flame Leviathan, and that he's a Titan keeper. Oh, and his
Head will be a flying mount. Should be an interesting fight considering that his chest, head and legs got separate models...
RazorscaleNo pic
Speculated to be the corrupted offspring of Veranus, Razorscale might be a boss in Ulduar. Mark my words: Might. No confirmation yet.
XT 002 Deconstructor

Another battle tank/iron golem/
muffin? Who knows. We've got an icon for an achievement and nothing else - Stay tuned!
Ignis
No pic
Yet another boss revealed by achievement icons. No info at the mo, check back.
KologarnNo pic
...And yet another. Personally, I suspect that this might be the boss in the new VoA wing that Blizzard has revealed. Who knows? I call discussion!
Iron Council
No pic
Confirmed to be a boss in Ulduar much like the
Illidari Council in the
Black Temple. No other info as we speak.
Yogg-SaronThe Beast With A Thousand MawsNo end to the speculation about the famed last boss of Ulduar! Confirmed to be the Forgotten One that Arthas and Anub'Arak faced beneath Azjol-Nerub, Yogg-Saron is the corrupter of Vordrassil and the supposed 'master' of Loken. Suspected to be the twin half of
C'thun, Yogg-Saron is warming up to be an epic fight with
epic loot. No tactics, check back soon!

And here is
Thorem. Why Thorem and not Thorim is beyond me. But he is there, and his hair resembles Thor himself!
Thanks, ArgentSun, adding him straight away.
*Cough* see, we were right about the mutation thing *cough*
