The stein is third in the series of high-quality old world-style steins based on Blizzard Entertainment's massively multiplayer online role-playing game, and 3 Point is offering both an Epic Collection version and a high-end variant edition branded the Legendary Collection.

Illustrated by premier fantasy artist Alex Horley, the new Rise of the Lich King stein prominently features the malevolent Lich King Arthas Menethil, the central figure in Blizzard Entertainment's recent Wrath of the Lich King expansion set, along with his undead army.

"The continued success of Blood of the Horde and Alliance United, the first two steins in the Epic Collection, has firmly positioned our steins as one of the must have collectibles within the industry," said 3 Point Entertainment president Jerry Bennington. "With the Rise of the Lich King stein now available we know that the World of Warcraft community will be even more eager to be a part of the collection and share their passion with their friends and family."

To complement the Epic Collection, 3 Point Entertainment is offering a high-end limited edition variant branded the Legendary Collection. Each Legendary Collection stein features substantial upgrades including an 18-carat gold plated lid, hand-signed autograph by Alex Horley, hand numbering, as well as premium gold hand-painted accents on the base and handle. Only 750 pieces of the Legendary Collection are being offered.

"The Legendary version is nothing short of spectacular," said Bennington. "Those who have pre-ordered one will not be disappointed and only few remain before they are sold out forever."
