Geosynchronous World Spinner

Oh my goodness. A new addition to the line of [url=http://mop.wowhead.com/item=18660#comments]gadgets that affect the entire world[/url].

It's all matter of perspective ^^

"I understand how the engines work now. It came to me in a dream. The engines don't move the ship at all. The ship stays where it is, and the engines move the universe around it."

"It never occurred to me to think of space as the thing that was moving."

Eladria's quote is from Futurama -- the episode where you learn how the Planet Express ship works. The mount model is also inspired by the ship.

To better match the Futurama reference.... *I WANT A GREEN ONE*!

I have to see this mount. Engineers are getting some serious love next expac The nature of the two new mounts could imply that you get one or the other, based on your specialization, this being the gnomish version. (pure theory)

There's currently no BoP tag, nor does it have a limit on its use (even non-Engineers could use it). The recipe is likely a Gnomish Engineering only recipe, but anyone could currently purchase/ride it.

Yanked from Engineering and added to TCG in 3...2...1...

BOOM! Backfired! Back to engineering XD

This is the Gnomish counter to the Goblin [item=87250]. Neither item currently requires Engineering or is BoP, but the recipe is restricted by specialization.

I beleive the method of getting this is going to be somewhat the same as the Mechanohog. And that you must be an engineer to make it but everyone can use it.

Aqueo, that is correct. Both mounts will be learnable and they will be Bind on Equip, allowing you to sell them.

I just got one off a blingtron at the new dalaraan location

You have to have the Gnomish engineering specialty to train the recipe for Geosynchronous World Spinner.

Finally after years of bad luck farming the [url=http://www.wowhead.com/item=50250]Big Love Rocket[/url] on 8 toons, and not knowing anyone interested in RAF, I can get my own rocket!

You are so right. I didn't have luck with my chars also and couldn't get one from recruit-a-friend, so i'll be crafting this one. Seems to have it's own UI with 2 Buttons (according to screenshots about the other rocket).

You can get your own rocket... if you have 70k to spare.

@ Melilithia: 54k if you're in a guild with the discount perk :)

54k would only get you the orbs (even with the guild perk). Living steel, trillium bars, spirits of harmony, and ghost iron bolts don't grow on trees, you know. Well, maybe spirits of harmony, but that's it.

:Muhahaha: This will get me a %^&*load of money. d(^_^)b

If it's true to it's name it wouldn't be able to go anywhere...

And yet,you would still arrive to your destination. Isn't gnomish engineering brilliant?

You seem to misunderstand the term Geosynchronous...

this ship doesn't move anywhere its true what it dose do is move the entire world around it

Destination would arrive at you.

Perhaps it should have been called "Astrosynchronous", since spinning the world beneath it would not technically make it geosynchronous.

Yet again engineers are able to craft the newest and coolest of in game mounts =)

I really hope this mount is like the one that General Grievous used ([url=http://images.wikia.com/starwars/images/2/2c/GrievWheelBike_wsmi.jpg]Tsmeu-6 personal wheel bike[/url]). I highly doubt it will be as this will likely be yet another flying rocket mount, but it sure would be awesome to have a new engineering ground mount =(

Good news everyone! This is a Fururama reference: "I understand how the engines work now! It came to me in a dream. The engines don't move the ship at all. The ship stays where it is and the engines move the universe around it." Here's hoping one of the vendor mats is "dark matter piston" or something of the sort...

Engineering makes the world go round!

"Engineering makes the world go round!" That would be physics.

Engineering makes the world go round... faster!

Mine was actually a drop from a Bling 6000 !!

Got mine from Blingtron 6000 as well!

today i logged into the beta and all of a sudden i had both [item=87251] and [item=87250] learned in my mounts. i have engineering on my pally, but idk if its showing up for all players or only players that have at least 1 toon with engineering.

ill be cool if they make engineering make a submarine for water mount always tough that ill be awesome.

Strangely, if you log out while mounted up on this machine and log back in, you have a new spell bar (as if in a vehicle.) As of the PTR patch 5.0.1 The two spells available to you are: [Rocket Radio], instant cast, and a description of [PH] Rocket Radio Test. Plays some casual music, reminds me of music you would hear in a mall or something :P The second one is [Shoot], 10-20 yard range .0447 sec cast 2.5 sec cooldown Test fires a spread of harmless pellets. What this one does is makes a little white jumble of pellets on the ground in front of the mount. These things also happen with the opposite version of its mount. I don't know if its a glitch for now, or if it will be introduced, but it would be pretty interesting to be able to do things while mounted :D

Im betting it does, these mounts are now luxury mounts. Check out the Materials needed to make them. Thatll be a decent feature for both mounts with that in mind of how expensive they are. Personally i love the Geosynchronous World Spinner, i must have it! Its soo smooth and slick like a 50's car.

That doesn't happen to me as off July 5th 2012. (The log in and out to get new actionbar)

The front of this rocket looks a [i]lot[/i] like nostrils to me. On days when I have a cold I'll drop 2 green smoke bombs in Orgrimmar and /sneeze a lot.

Stopped by to see if anyone else saw the giant nostrils or if it was just me.

Cannot un-see this...

Cannot unsee :(

I was going to comment this same thing but glad I read the comments, and so glad I wasn't the only one who saw it.

This mount must belong to Croatian airforce :D

This mount appears to be BoE, and doesnt require you to have engineering in order to learn it. Should be a nice way to make some money.

What are the mats needed to make it
