Most of our news of late has been about BlizzCon, but as anyone interested in comics knows the mother of all comic conventions began today in San Diego, Comi Con. Blizzplanet today posted about one little bit of WoW-related news released at the convention today: the first in a series of WoW sculptures. This particular sculpture is based on that spectacular mural we saw at the first BlizzCon (okay, so maybe this story is related to BlizzCon after all) featuring the battle between a Blood Elf and a Draenei.
This series of sculptures, created by Sideshow Collectibles, will be available next year, so we have a while to wait, but the images sure are amazing. I'm not one for statue collections, but I will definitely have to pick this one up, especially considering the collector's edition will feature a Nether Whelp.

I believe that the mural was actually shown at E3 2006. Back in 2005 (BlizzCon), the Draenei weren't even announced as one of the new races yet.

Freakin' SWEET! These would look awesome with my dragon and gargoyle collection. Can't wait for them to be released.
Of course, I'll probably have to be a lottery winner to afford them, but a man can dream can't he? :P

Yes ones like this will be extremely expensive. I used to collect the Sideshow LOTR statues and stuff from a few other licenses.
You're looking at a minimum of $500-$600 for this piece. Remember each one is individually hand painted. They aren't mass factory produced items and the more expensive pieces are usually limited to 2000-4000 numbered pieces.
