I haven't liked a lot of items in game since the begining of burning crusade. Now don't get me wrong, I love things like netherdrakes.. but when they first came out I thought to myself, "they put a lot less detail into the texture than they did on our old mounts." I believe they have had different art designers since burning crusade, that although have created some amazing things, have left others with the short stick. I thought the bc dungeon set looked horrible, like someone slapped it together. Dull coloring and all. Then we got into t4, t5, t6.. and it seemed better, but the 6.5 teir was the same low quality creativity job from before imo.
Look at the baby frost wyrm. It's cute, but.. they could have made it look better I think. It reminds me of the BC expansion pack whelp, low in detail and its the same graphic style. Just look at the comparisons.. azure whelp vs tiny crimson whelp. Which one has better coloring? =( Its still cute, its still rare, but it could have been done better.
These new mounts are just the same to me. The textures look dull, and do not have the rich colors of the amani war bear. I don't mind the simplicity of a black war bear. But can it be black instead of gray? Can it have slightly more bright armor?
I feel like I want steel chains and got the plastic walmart ones.

why should the vendors bear look as good as the amani war bear?
Because it cost lke 900g. Anything that cost that much, shouldn't suck so bad.
no one is forcing you to buy it. clearly enough players are happy with the looks of it from the thousands of them running around northrend.
The amani warbear is a symbol of a former achivement and should therefore look unique to symbolise this.
If the dalaran bear mount looked better then everyone would have it and it would be very dull....
The AWB will always be immediately recognizable and unique no matter what vendor mounts look like. Throwing a bone to people who started playing WoW recently, couldn't raid before, lost roll after roll after roll on the AWB (grrrrr......), etc. isn't necessarily a bad thing.

Why does it have to be better? why not... JUST LOOK GOOD. Period. I see the occational murloc mount too, and of the people with them I've spoken to they tell me even they dislike the mount for its lack of detail. The murloc is its only redeemable factor.
As for the new bear mount, I don't expect it to look as bad ass or detailed as the amani bear. But for over 500g I expect better coloring.. #$%^ I'd rather ride one of the lowbie bears I killed for quest than this thing.
Making two things look good does not diminish the value of the other. Some people like the amani bear, some don't. Some people like their awesome nether drake, some people don't. Making the nether drakes look like $%^& doesnt make the hippogryph look better, it just makes the drake look like $%^&. that's it. (just giving example, not sayin they do =3)

I think my Dwarf would look kinda cool on the Armored Bears. Though the
armor
part is a bit... exaggerated, they are still a cool mount. Nothing compared to the Amani Bears though. I think Blizzard sort of crashed with the Bears, but the Mammoth makes up for it 100%.
