Notes and sources
The vendor sells the Red, Green and Unpainted Mechanostriders at the same price and three swift ones at 10 gold. Wowhead's tooltip for her and the wiki give the same coordinates. The item binds when picked up and asks for level 10 (wiki, since patch 9.0.1).
The journal leaves out the reputation. The wiki's page for the vendor (edited 2025) says 'Only gnomes can buy from Milli by default; other characters must be exalted with Gnomeregan', and her gossip to anyone else is that she can only sell to those 'considered exalted amongst the gnomes'. That was not confirmed in the game, and whether a mechagnome counts as a gnome here was not established (neither wiki page says). The mount is account-wide once learned, so any gnome on the account can buy it for 1 gold and skip the reputation.
Where a non-gnome starts with Gnomeregan was not found, so the hours may overstate it. The tabard is also sold by Rillie Spindlenut at the Argent Tournament Grounds, and Gnomeregan Writs of Commendation from the Molten Front give reputation as well (wiki).
Guide: Wowhead's is a user-submitted list (updated 2024) of every racial mount with its vendor and the rule that they are bought 'by being Exalted with their respective faction, or by being the race it's part of'; it names this mount and this vendor but does not say how the reputation is earned. It also says the Alliance racial mounts 'are shared with their Horde counterparts, so you do not need to get both'; what that means for this mount was not looked into.
Confidence in this entry: medium. Looked up in 2026.
