I'm quite disappointed with the new system as well as the models.
Originally they were going to go with a minor Glyph system that allowed you to select your forms by adding the glyphs. They decided not to do that.
Now your form is determined by your caster form coloration. This means that you can not choose your cat and bear skin. You can go to the barbershop and change your look and then get stuck with a new Cat/Bear combo.
However, this means that you can only choose one form you like. You are stuck with whatever caster appearance that you have to accept to get the Bear look you want and then you have to suffer through whatever Cat appearance comes with it.
This system fails to provide the original intent of selectable skins. We can't actually choose a set of skins we like. We can only choose one we like, if one exists, and then suck it up.
Druids have been sucking it up for Four years now. That's long enough.
Blizzard needs to meet it's promise.
Druid skins for models that aren't ugly. (We have had the placeholder Tauren cat for long enough.)
A system that allows the druid to select the skins they want to use.
The planned implementation fails.
It's perfectly reasonable. Why wouldn't your forms be at least partially based on how you looked in caster form?
.
EDIT: I have Purple Hair Blizz, I sure as hell hope you make my bear form a bright shade of Violet.
Failing that, if the Green Bears/Cats look really really good I may head for the nearest salon...

I love my bear, don't get me wrong...and personally, I think tauren got the short end of the stick where druid looks are concerned. Nonetheless, I am very, very tired of what my forms look like.
Let's hope Blizz doesn't blow it.

I'd trade those ears for badass horns (minus lockjawed lion form) any day.

Of course, they always have been.

just thought of this now...they could always make the dire bear what it is now and only change the bear form.

For those who are blind, the new models aren't a simple recolor of the old ones. Yes they are similar, but the new ones are much more detailed.
Trees got their model with the arrival of BC (the patch right before), so it doesn't look that dated. I don't remember whether moonkin form was there from the start or not, but since the population is lower it's not surprising that we aren't in the first batch. It'll also allow Blizzard to work out some of the kinks in the new system, so while i'd like to see tree and moonkin new models too i can wait for them a bit more.

Awww..... wish they had new tree forms too. I want to either be a shrub, or an orange tree.

Moonkin replaced Hurricane as a Balance Talent. IIRC, Moonkin was added in v1.8.0

Everyone complains and threatens to quit when Blizzard gives them a present.
Leave them be.
