Seems to be the case with most games, the gear in WoW became progressively worse everytime, with the exception of the level 70 raid and arena gear that looked awesome, everything else sucked big time and began to look completely fake. In most cases originals are the best. dismantled my armour too though kept a few weapons. If they do introduce transmog though you'd still be missing out on that old gear, would have to use all these new armour sets.
