Take your WoW character home; Beware of Envy
In more action figure news, I finally have the opportunity to display my Undead Mage in the middle of the living room. FigurePrints is a company that’s bringing cutting edge rapid prototyping 3d printing technology to the masses. When you’re talking about the 7+ million subscribers and aficionados of the popular mmorpg World of Warcraft, the word “masses” almost seems silly.
For $99.99 and $15 s/h (US) you can get in the queue and order a custom one-of-a-kind figure (based on your in-game character) encased in a glass dome and a heavy base. A slew of actual product photographs are available after the jump.
What’s that you say? You can’t order yet? Well there are two caveats thus far - the first being a 3 month wait (the demand has skyrocketed even before the website has opened to the public), and there’s also the realization that bringing said virtual character into the real world may very well sever your relationships to the opposite sex. I know, I’m sorry I made the “geek can’t get a girl” joke but c’mon. I’m engaged and I’m fairly certain my fiance would hack my body apart and feed it to mice before she’d ever be OK with me having one of these. …BUT that doesn’t stop you… faithful… beautiful readers, from buying it for me.
FigurePrints‘ website opens for business on Dec. 11th.
