I thought that I had a full listing of Mega's World of Warcraft sets, but someone just posted this lot on FB: Never saw these before, but apologies to any here among us who might have mentioned them previously, here or on the previous forum. The person who posted them said that they might have been in-house exclusives to Mega Bloks employees at the time, but I found this page where someone reports seeing them in TRU in 2013. Once again I marvel at Mega's dedication to keeping its products secret.

I remember seeing them ONCE in a TRU around that time, I think. They were very hard to find and I only really remember seeing them regularly in online venues for exorbitant prices.

An item not seen too often on ebay, etc., is the 2nd series blind bags for the Warcraft release, not sure if it was a short release or what.

No thumbnail images, but check out: www.figures.com/gallery/showgallery.php?cat=2722 from 2013 toy fair. Some of the sets got released, others did not. Gramps - do you have any links or images of series 2 WoW blind bags? I was not aware of those. Thanks!

I'm very interested, if you have pics, but it's hard to list them unless we have at least the set name and number, and ideally the year of release. Part-count and figure-count are nice but secondary. I didn't have the blind bags listed on the forum, but they're in my database. Must. Update. Listing. I got into a reasonably good-natured argument with someone about this on FB today, wherein I griped (as usual) about Mega's poor track record of promoting its products. He somehow maintained that they're very good at it, and I was like "dude, I've been at this a long time, and I can say with confidence that their website has always omitted cool sets while showcasing others that never seem to appear at retail." The sets we're discussing in this thread are a great example.

While we're at it, does anyone have pieces/set# info about the 2011 Blizzcon exclusive Thrall figure? I see tons of pics online of the box art and the figure, but not much about the set data.

There is no set number on the Blizzcon Thrall, just the figure and an insert. FYI - the grey/silver brick above the black "Thrall" brick has A26091MM printed on the side. Let me know if the insert is helpful. Do you want a copy of the insert from the Blizzcon Jade Chen Stormstout? This is the insert from the Blizzcon Thrall:

I think that I have the info I need for the Jade figure, but it's disappointing that there's no set # for Thrall.
If you don't mind scanning/posting the insert, I'd like to see it. Thanks!

Was the thrall a freebie if you do this or a pay/only available at blizzon thing??

Was the thrall a freebie if you do this or a pay/only available at blizzon thing?? I believe Thrall was part of the swag bag you got for attending Blizzcon that year. So you had to pay for a ticket to Blizzcon to get the swag bag. I bought mine off of eBay shortly after Blizzcon.

Also, any interest in unreleased sets? I think I kept some of the pics... I'm very interested, if you have pics, but it's hard to list them unless we have at least the set name and number, and ideally the year of release. Part-count and figure-count are nice but secondary. Nefarian - set #91049, I believe part count is "XXX". Garrosh Throne Room - set #91061, part count is "XXX". Mechano Hog - never saw a box, not sure where I got these pics:
