Review of WOW Lich King Arthas Deluxe Collector Figure

It is undoubted that people who have ever played World of Warcraft must know the Lich King Arthas. Though it was defeated in the last expansion and lost its life in the Fall of the Lich King, it cannot be obliterated easily in players' hearts. (Source: Gamebase.com.tw)

WoW: Wrath of the Lich King - Cinematic Intro HD

I came across the Lich King: Arthas Menethil figure produced by DC Unlimited at the BlizzCon last year and an idea burst upon me, "That's it, that's it!", so I went over and shouted at the salesman nervously in broken English, "I want buy Lich King!", but I was told that it was just a demo product and the original version would be on sale 3 weeks later on November 10th. I was very disappointed, but the desire for one Lich King Figure was buried in my mind deeply since then.

The figures I saw in USA last year, and I thirsted for Lich King and Grom Hellscream most.

Before the Lich King Figure entered the Taiwanese market, I once saw it on Yahoo auction site and a mall in Taiwan, but it was not produced by DC Unlimited and its quality and size were not normal, even the salesman was unclear whether the figure was produced and sold under the authority of Blizzard Entertainment.

The figure not produced by DC Unlimited is expensive and irregular in size, Frostmourne is even sold separately.

At the beginning of this year, Game First International Corp. stealthily introduced a small number of Lich King Figures produced by DC Unlimited and began to sell them via its official site on April 11th. I didn't know that until the next day and I asked my friend to reserve one for me at first.  However, the quantity was really small, 60% of the figures were sold out on the release day.  It was expected this batch would vanish from Taiwanese sites one week later. I had no time to consider carefully and placed an order instantly, because there was a limited number, if I bought it next month when I was paid, I was afraid I would regret for the rest of my life.

I finally received my figure in the afternoon on April 12th.  I couldn't wait to open it and show you why I was so crazy about it.
