From Catherine's blog: "That said, new genetics are being introduced. You will NOT have to buy new starter packs. These will come from your current Meeroos."

I honestly just was able to breed a Snowpaw and Loch from stock I've had for 5+ months and upon reading that there will not be new starter packs, I'm concerned that those only popping Pharaohs & Kimodos and the like will be able to breed out these expansion meeroos - everyone else will have to purchase from secondary market.
This is not exactly what I had in mind for the expansion, as I thought it would be leveling the playing field from the chest lotto. Those that "won" that are seeing these new and ultra rare meeroos will obviosly have a leg up in this expansion - if my fear comes to fruition.

My question, how easy will it be to breed the expansion meeroos from the current stock - since I've bred myself nothing but gael and pine in the 5 months I've ben playing WWOW I feel a bit nervous about the latest blog post.
