McFarlane Toys has announced a partnership with Blizzard Entertainment to develop new lines of collectible figures for Diablo, World of Warcraft, and Warcraft Arclight Rumble, with an initial product launch coming this fall! Known for developing highly detailed model action figures and collectibles from comics, film, music, and video games, McFarlane Toys was founded by famed comic book creator Todd McFarlane in 1994, initially featuring figures from Spawn, before branching out into various other IPs. It has since produced original works, such as its Twisted Fairy Tales and McFarlane's Dragons lines.
McFarlane Toys McFarlane Toys founder, Todd McFarlane said, “What I try and do within the walls of McFarlane is to find big brands that look super-cool.It’s a fairly simple formula that can be very hard to find, but the talented creators over at Blizzard have been making and designing tons of fun, detailed and visually stunning worlds across their games for decades.
