Not only will fans of the game be offered the opportunity to buy the TCG in addition to their subscriptions and expansions, but now there's toys too: http://www.gameinformer.com/NR/exeres/DEE6C4AA-EC52-46C9-9F80-40450C71AF84.htm

The figures in question:

I hate to break it to you, but many Blizzard games have associated figurines. Not to mention novels etc. This is not new, and people apparently actually buy them. It's hardly extracting money.

What's this? A business is trying to make money!? BURN THEM!


/edit

These figurines are f'ing HARD. I will buy everyone of them

 

[joelseph]

DC Direct is sculpting these figs which means, without a doubt, they will be awesome.

Blizzard should just buy an island and establish a country or something...

I think they own Irvine now. When I got pulled over by a cop, I waved my hand and said, "It's okay - For the Horde!" and they let me pass.

I wouldn't tell them you are Alliance though... they'll drop you off on Skid Row.

Wow, the Orc Shaman and Draenei Paladin look furkin' sweet! I have a Troll Priest figure and the details are decent for something mass produced. If they're not too expensive, I'll buy these. I want to see a figure with Tier 4 Warrior armor, though.

 

[castle007]

what are they used for??? Dildos?

 

[Pureauthor]

I am such a sucker for Orcish stuff...

 

[Fusebox]

Huh? A series of figurines based n the different classes came out when the game was first released. Any backlash against a second, newer range of characters is just retarded.

 

[monchi-kun]

i loved the starcraft figures

keep it up Blizz!!!!

 

[F9Phoenix]

Believe it or not, people like that crap. Don't hate on Blizzard for giving stupid shit their fans will buy.

 

[Fusebox]

Since when did figurines and fan-service become "stupid shit" around here?? I've always loved figurines of my favourite game characters and I dont understand the hate - please explain?

 

[F9Phoenix]

Sorry to offend the doll collectors.

T-shirts, dolls, keyrings, lanyards - it's all good baby.

Everyone break out the paintbrushes!

Hate to break it to you, but they come pre-painted. Maybe you should try out Warmachine? </productplacement>

No female characters?! Come on!

Most non-functional axe ever?

Seriously, it looks better for kneading dough than hacking people.

Ummm....exactly WTF are you bitching about?

I didn't renew WoW after the trial month because I didn't feel like I needed the timesink, but how exactly is Blizzard "extracting" money from their userbase by offering *completely* optional products that they can give or take based on the quality and value of said products? U R dummmmmb.

 

[Borys]

Biggest :lol @ the Blizzard haters in this thread.

As for the figures - ****ing awesome, but that's nothing new when it comes to Blizzard stuff.

 

[emomoonbase]

Those figures look awesome.

That's a mace.

So uh, I take it you've never played the game?

Because that's not an axe.

dont need to play the game to know its a mace.

 

[FoxSpirit]

Well, not exactly my sentiments but yeah, it's a bladed mace... though that kinda defeats the real life advantages of a mace...

[SatelliteOfLove]
