We have had high interest from players in Europe and are pleased to now be able to offer these steins to our ever-growing European community,” said 3 Point Entertainment president Jerry Bennington The first two Epic Collection steins, Blood of the Horde and Alliance United, depict panoramic full-color bas-reliefs of night elves, tauren, orcs, and more, illustrated by Blizzard Entertainment artists Samwise Didier and Glenn Rane.
