MEGA Bloks Are Making World of Warcraft and StarCraft II Construction Sets

By ( ) Comments

MEGA Brands Inc., maker of MEGA Bloks, has signed a deal with Blizzard Entertainment to bring us official World of Warcraft and StarCraft II Mega Bloks. Set to debut in the summer of 2012, the constructions sets will be based on locations, characters and vehicles from the ridiculously popular MMO and StarCraft II’s Terran (for those not in the know: human) campaign, Wings of Liberty. From Vic Bertrand, Chief Innovation Officer of MEGA Brands:

“We’re proud and thrilled to enter into a partnership with Blizzard Entertainment, the world leader in creating epic online game franchises.

The depth of content in World of Warcraft and StarCraft will fuel years of fun, collectible products for gamers and collectors.”

There are not yet pictures of pieces from the sets, but MEGA Bloks handles other franchise sets, such as the Halo construction set, and aside from am overly flashy webpage, that set looks pretty decent, so fans of both non-Minecraft blocky construction and Blizzard franchises with “craft” in the title need not worry about poor product quality. As for which Blizzard franchises should’ve gotten the MEGA Bloks treatment first, we’re happy for the -craft titles, but we all know Lost Vikings would’ve been ideal.

    Hey Mega Bloks, as long as you’re selling Starcraft and Halo sets over here, mind bringing over the spiffy Pokemon sets Japan has had forever? Thanks.

    Unfortunately we no longer have a partnership with Bandai in Japan, so no more Pokémon, Kamen Rider (my fav), etc. Shoot me an e-mail at community@megabloks.com and I’ll see if I can hook you up with a set though.

    I think Blizzard chose poorly.  They should have went with Lego.  Mega Blok is so poorly constructed. The materials they use in constructing there blocks doesn’t compare to what Lego uses.  You can do way more things with Lego than Megablok.

    Well it’s not stupid because a contract with Lego was WAY to expensive and Mega Block wasn’t so don’t speak witghout knowing what you’re talking about.
