Toy News International reports that the
World of Warcraft action figures from
DC Direct are coming in the last quarter of this year. I love my toys and I love WoW so this comes as great news, particularly with the new selection of figures -- a Blood Elf
Paladin named Quin'thalan Sunfire (hell yeah!); Tamuura, a Draenei
Mage; an Undead
Rogue called Skeeve Sorrowblade; and a Human
Priest, Sister Benedron, who can probably
cure your allergies. As with previous World of Warcraft action figures from DC direct, the sculpts are mostly based on existing armor sets that players might recognize.
Tamuura sports the Tier 6 raid set
Tempest Regalia, while Sister Benedron is depicted in Tier 5
Avatar gear with exaggerated shoulder wings; Skeeve Sorrowblade
appears to be wearing a highly-detailed version of
Deathmantle, the Rogue Tier 5 set; and Quin'thalan Sunfire looks... well, he looks like he's a generic
Silvermoon City guard whom you ask for directions. It's a bit disappointing, personally, although I guess it's cool to have a Silvermoon City guard. It would be kind of like having a named
Stormtrooper or something. Historically, DC Direct's action figures have appeared in the World of Warcraft
comic, so expect one or more of these new figures to make an appearance in the
Chris Metzen-approved canon comic series.
More pictures after the jump. So clickety-click, toy lovers (and uh, WoW fans)...
