HEX Collectibles has revealed a new 1/6 scale statue of Sylvanas Windrunner, the Banshee Queen of World of Warcraft, made in partnership with Blizzard Entertainment as part of its Hearthstone line. The company shared the first official images on Sunday, November 8, at 9:15 PM MST. Check out the official post down below:

HEX has been building out a line of Warcraft characters, and World of Warcraft's Alexstrasza gets a stunning statue from HEX Collectibles as well, also at 1/6 scale.
Who Is Sylvanas Windrunner?
Sylvanas made her debut in Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos in 2002, and she has been one of Blizzard's central Warcraft characters ever since. She began as the Ranger-General of Silvermoon, leading the high elf defense of Quel'Thalas during the Third War. She was killed by Arthas Menethil, who raised her as a banshee to serve the Scourge. After breaking free of the Lich King's control, she gathered other freed undead and founded the Forsaken in the ruins of Lordaeron, ruling them from the Undercity.
She later succeeded Vol'jin as Warchief of the Horde, ordered the burning of Teldrassil in the Battle for Azeroth prerelease story, and broke the Helm of Domination at the start of Shadowlands. Her story continued after Shadowlands in the 2022 novel Sylvanas by Christie Golden, which covers her life from her childhood in Quel'Thalas onward. Patty Mattson voices Sylvanas in World of Warcraft.
In Hearthstone, Sylvanas Windrunner first appeared as a minion in the Curse of Naxxramas adventure in July 2014, a few months after the game launched. The original card cost 6 mana, had 5 Attack and 5 Health, and took control of a random enemy minion with its Deathrattle when it died. HEX's base nods to that card with its Attack and Health markers.
