This pet is redeemed through the common 'Sand Scarab' loot card from the World of Warcraft Tomb of the Forgotten TCG expansion. The card may be scratched to reveal a code allowing access to this pet. The code may be redeemed at Blizzard's promotion retrieval page. The pet may be obtained in-game from Landro Longshot in Booty Bay.

Between October 22 and November 5, 2024, players that linked their Twitch account to their Bnet account could earn this pet by watching WoW Twitch streams for at least 4 hours, making it temporarily available again.

I got this guy a few weeks ago. I was just walking around, looking at the TCG cards, and grabbed a pack. Bought it, went out into my car, and what do you know... It was in the pack. EDIT: After buying another pack, I found out I got another, and gave it to a friend. Seems like these guys are really common, so you should probably pick up a few packs, and give it a go at getting one of these guys!

I purchased this off ebay for 4.65 with free shipping. Not too bad.

I was having a bad day and running errands. I happened to see a pack of these Trading Cards for $5, and took a chance. I'm pleased to say that the first little pack (15!) of cards I've ever purchased, I stumbled upon this little guy.

Zul'Farrak has always been my favourite dungeon, and this scarab is truly adorable. While yes, he is pretty brown and neutral - he's easily one of my most prized thus far.

Good little pet for those that love collecting the bugs. I am hoping they come out with some new color variants. (I am sure a lot of people would like to have a mini-Sithlid pet)

It has a nice scanning animation where it tilts its head and sniffs the air with its feelers, like real beetles do when air currents wash over them....very authentic!

Has a nifty swimming annimation - appropriately creepy (I don't like bugs). Looks great when used with "Blessing of the Old God" or the Ultramarine Qiraji Battle Tank and Pendant of the Scarab Storm - all of which I am lucky to have!

The pet is decently sized. About the size of a dwarf boot. It seems to draw a bit of attention but that may be because its fairly new. I think that it takes a certain type of "love" to really enjoy this pet.

Its roughly 2x-3x the size of the Pendant swarm item beetles and shares the same skin.

It does kind of look like a bedbug. A rather large one. Eeewww!

Easily mistaken for a common beetle, the sting of a sand scarab will quickly clear up the misconception should you be unlucky enough to be stung by one.
