Solution:
Wallpapers in stock ROM, can be found in two system apks:
1. In the framework. This is where the default screen and launcher wallpaper is stored.
How to get the wallpaper out:
-Pull Framework-res.apk from /system/framework
-open it in a zip manager or just extract it.
-the default lockscreen wallpaper is located in res/drawable-hdpi
Note that, hdpi is not constant and it's only based on the dpi of the phone, Galaxy SII is hdpi while galaxy Siii for example is xhdpi
-the default wallpaper is located in res/drawable-nodpi
And
Other wallpapers will be stored in the stock launcher apk file.
E.g.
-For galaxy SII, the stock launcher is Touchwiz.
-So you will have to pull Touchwiz launcher (touchwiz30launcher.apk)
-the wallpapers will be located in res/drawable (just check all the folders with drawable and dpi)

if you are looking for Original wallpapers in Galaxy S3, don't trouble yourself, you can get it here: Galaxy SIII wallpapers for galaxy sii
However, If you would like to do it yourself, then you must know/learn how to extract files from firmware .img files
