FigurePrints, a company that creates custom miniatures of your WoW characters, has announced an upcoming price increase. The new $129.95 is about a 30% increase over the previous $100 price point. Still, not too bad for a piece of art.

FigurePrints is committed to bringing you the highest quality product possible at the lowest price. One of the things we have learned over the last six months is that our material costs are much higher than we had anticipated. To address this and enable our artists to maintain our high standards we will be increasing our price to $129.95 starting with the July drawing.

Yesterday we brought you news about the launch of the Hunt For Illidan WoW TCG cards. Today, Upper Deck has announced a sneak peek being offered in hobby stores everywhere!

World of Warcraft TCG Sneak Previews are your chance to play with a new set before it goes on sale! These tournaments use the Sealed Pack format, in which each player gets two booster packs of March of the Legion and four booster packs of Hunt for Illidan. Players build their decks from these six boosters, allowing them to explore the new cards in an exciting tournament environment! Prizes include exclusive playmats and deck boxes featuring art from the new set, as well as Hunt for Illidan booster packs. Every player will go home with the cards from his or her Sealed Pack deck and an exclusive Extended Art promo card: Battlemage Vyara!*

Sneak Previews are fun and casual tournaments, and are perfect for players of all skill levels. If you haven't competed in an Organized Play event before, this is the perfect chance to start. Come hang out, play the WoW TCG, meet new friends, and win some awesome prizes!

For more info you can visit the WoW TCG tourney page! If there's a preview near you, I highly recommend this social and fun way to hang out with other TCG players, while checking out what's new!

[Edit: We've just received word that these promotional items will also be available on the public test realms!  Read on for more details!]

Upper Deck has been releasing information on the forthcoming set, Hunt For Illidan, due in stores in just over 2 weeks. However, they have been holding out on the one thing MMO players care about -- the loot cards!

The cards have finally been announced. The super common will create a buff that leaves trails of green flame behind the player. The medium rarity card will allow players to summon a disco ball, similiar to the Picnic Basket, which players can click on to receive a special song playing in their sound, and lights up the area around you.

The rare card is a special non-combat pet: a full-sized ethereal follows you! In addition, he absorbs the souls of creatures you kill that award experience, and lets you buy special items with the souls he collects. Does this mean he functions as a vendor you can sell to in the wild? We don't know!
