We're all excited for the toy box feature coming in Warlords of Draenor, but what's a toy box without new toys? Warlords also introduces traveling merchant Benjamin Brode, named for one of Hearthstone's real world designers. Brode peddles his Hearthstone wares in-game with enthusiasm, selling a Hearthstone Board, a Pack of Hearthstone Cards, and the Winning Hand. Brode can be found in your garrison and he's a human regardless of your faction. If you're Horde, however, he'll be sporting a very convincing orc mask.

These items don't mean you can actually play Hearthstone in-game, of course. Upon use, each of them plays an emote and a small animation. The Hearthstone Board, for example, has your character throw to game board down on the ground. If you then click on the game board, your character will flip it in a rage. The Winning Hand shoots off fireworks. When you open the Pack of Hearthstone Cards, your character emotes: [Character] opens up a new pack of Hearthstone cards. Mmm, love that new card smell.

Roleplaying a Hearthstone diehard in World of Warcraft might be a whole lot of fun using these items as props and inspiration.
