      WoW Worldbreaker Booster Update - Worldbreaker Epic Collection On Sale
    Cryptozoic Entertainment has announced that the next World of Warcraft expansion, Worldbreaker, will not be released this month as expected. It is now expected to ship by December 15th.

    The good news is that the loot cards for Worldbreaker have been confirmed. The rare loot card is the Mottled Drake, a Flying Mount that, with the Cataclysm release, can be used in all old world areas. Grim Campfire, which includes an alternate campfire graphic, is the uncommon. The common is Landro's Lil' XT Action Figure, a permanent in-game pet.

    We haven't heard whether the delay to the Worldbreaker boosters will affect the Worldbreaker Epic Collection's arrival. It was tentatively scheduled to arrive in mid-December. We are preselling Epic Collection boxes for $27 each or for $309 by the case (12 per case).

    Each Epic Collection box includes 6 Worldbreaker booster packs, 5 random foil heroes from Worldbreaker, 1 Worldbreaker playmat, 1 Worldbreaker deck box, 1 Worldbreaker visual pocket guide, 1 common loot card, card dividers, and a reusable storage box.
