I think it's one of the coolest things GW has done in a long time.
As far as it being (please insert your derogatory statements/words here), The orks rode bionic pigs, the eldar exodites cruised around on dinosaurs, and I believe that there has even been a Slanneshi guy on a giant worm/snake thingy with boobs! So why is it so hard to buy the wolf rider thing? It is a 'Thunderwolf', the biggest type of wolf on Fenris. Prehistoric Dire wolves were a lot bigger than todays modern wolves, standing 5 - 6 feet at the shoulder and weighing in at over 1500lbs (for the uninformed out there, that is 3/4 of a ton). As far as the wolf's spine not being made for riding, ever been on a camel, an elephant, an ostrich?
Besides, if you don't like it, you don't have to buy it. You know, you could always start your own gaming company, make your own rules and your own miniatures! LOL!!
