One doesn’t have to be one of several an incredible number of players of Warcraft to collect its actions figures. The younger fans though, or the young in mind, often have a hard time resisting the urge to take the warcraft action figures with their box. The slightly older players will discover the warcraft action figures reminiscent of He-Man figures sold while in the 80’s.
You can find four main companies that started manufacturing warcraft figures since Warcraft 2. These are Blizzard Entertainment, Toycom, State of the Art (SOTA), and DC Direct (of DC Comics). Outside of these companies, DC Direct has design the largest line of figures, 25 miniatures including state of the art miniatures, through 2009.
Blizzard, the corporation behind World of Warcraft, or WoW has only released five figures. They’re Human Footman, Orc Grunt, Malfurion Stormrage, Muradin Bronzebeard, and Thrall.
Toycom has released six figures all from Warcraft III. SOTA produced only 3 figures that are: Tauren Shaman, Undead Warlock, and Jungle Troll Voodoo Priest.
DC Direct released its first group of warcraft action figures in 2007. This first series was comprised of Meryl Felstorm: Undead Warrior, Rehgar Earthfury: Orc Shaman, Valeera Sanguinar: Blood Elf Rogue, including a deluxe figure, Illidan Stormrage: Night Elf Demon Hunter. DC has released five series through the end of 2009.
As Steve Carell’s character, Andy, proved in The 40-Year-Old Virgin, working with a mint toy collection can be quite a nice investment. Those unaware of WoW, but looking for the next “hot” collectible, may want to seek out these wow action figures because WoW is a Guinness World Record holding massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG), holding the record for many subscribers, over 11 million. With that many followers worldwide it’s likely a market will exist later on for anyone collectors who made it possible to purchase the warcraft action figures now and keep them. And unlike the He-Man figures these WoW action figures usually are not currently being mass produced and sold in retail outlets.
