Title says it all. Been waiting too long for this. Anyone seen/heard anything about it actually happening any time soon?

Last I recall reading is that they plan to do them but that it'll likely take awhile and be phased in slowly until they're all updated. It takes a lot of work with little noticeable gain (to most people). Also, they have concerns as some people really like their current models and have grown very accustom to them. Not sure what, if anything, would be done to cater to both extremes here.

Everquest 2 did a character model update, and to cater to people who liked the old models better, they had a set of toggles in the options, where you could select new or old character models by race. I.E. you could decide that you wanted to see the new models on humans, elves, ogres, and elves, but really liked the old models better on the cat people and the frog people.
Theirs was weird, though, because they completely redid the hairstyles and such, so that what you look like as one would be radically different than what you looked like as the other, not just different art styles.

It's coming. However, every time you ask, even on a non-official site, Blizzard delays itit by one week.

I think they´ll come with the next expansion. That would really be the latest i can see them implementing them. Dwarf models are already finished, and they said they would be working on the Human and Orc models next i think. Also they want to implement them all at once instead of one after another.
Dwarfs are done? You wouldn't happen to have a link or something? Not doubting you, just curious.

Should have been done many moons ago.
