Rarity: Common
Notes:
This is one of four BoU Winter Veil pets that drops at random from the [Gaily Wrapped Present]. You must be level 20+ to loot this item. This item appears under the Winter Veil tree in Ironforge (alliance) or Orgrimmar (horde) on and after December 25th through January 1st, but the [Snowman Kit] can often be found at auction year-round. Unlike other small pets, Tiny Snowman is immobile and will not follow you. However if you perform certain emotes with him, such as '/dance' and '/kiss', he'll respond with different animations.

Breanni Says:

Ok, I can understand how a snowman would require snow to summon. But I don’t see why I need a snowball to summon mine. After all, I’m an ice mage! I can conjure water in my sleep and freezing things is what I'm all about! In other words, I can make my own snow. So Blizzard, if you’re reading this, please make an exception for us frost mages in the next patch. Thanks!

Let me tell you about the Tiny Snowman. This pet has a mind of its own! You may tell it to go somewhere, but it steadfastly refuses to obey your frivolous whims. The petty urgencies of its owner mean little to it, and it is content to stand in the sun, melting until it dies. Truly it should be commended for its stubbornness and single mind while the rest of the pets blindly follow their owners into death and danger and loading screens!

Of all the non-combat pets Ive seen this one stands out. This is the only non-combat pet that I know of that stays still. This pet will not waddle along behind you like most pets. It also does some little dances and hat tips making it a interesting pet but its inibility to move and the regent cost makes it a pet that will be rarely summoned.

My favorite thing to do with this guy out is stand in Ironforge and don my Winter Veil Disguise Kit.

For high levels, there is now a quest reward from a daily in Storm Peaks that is a reliable source of snowballs.

This along with the other holiday pets are under a separate tab in the auction house, not the vanity pet tab that most are listed. Be sure to check the holiday tab if you are looking to buy one.

This thing needs to be able to move! maybe he could hop after you? or maybe slide around like the Snowman from the Rudolph movie?

My best advice for a way to "farm" this pet, as well as the other Winter's Veil pets, is to level a whole bunch of alts to lv20+. This in itself shouldn't take long, and it guarantees more chances at actually getting the pets for free, and not having to pay for them.

Also, if you do buy them, try to do it when there's an abundance on the AH. Come July-August, these pets can fetch as much as 10k+, depending on your server.

This is my first Winter's Veil, so I have a couple questions about how you get this and the other 3 winter pets.

How many times can one loot the presents under the tree?
Is it possible to get all 4 pets in 1 year?

UPDATE: Thanks so much again for the help Nightski! Happy holidays!

IanValencia, you can get them all in one year, you loot a present once a day under the tree in Org? (i think its org, I'm ally, sorry), from Dec. 25th- Jan. 2nd
BUT your best bet is to loot presents on alts too! as the pets are not BoP!

so once a day, starting Dec. 25th (to Jan. 2nd), loot presents under the tree in Org(?), on as many alts as possible (think they have to be level 20+). :) Good luck!

The range on the /dance, /wave and /kiss emotes are quite far. So even if he's unable to follow you, he's still got you in mind!

He's a cute little fella, although stationary. He waves back, dances with you, and my favorite, gets shy and a bit embarrassed at being kissed. His hat spins right off the top of his head! What a funny little snowman!
