It's officially that time of year. You know which one I'm talking about. Time to figure out what to buy for that particularly difficult gamer in your life. They have all the games they want and the latest systems, so what else is there? Steins. You heard me, the most epic of beverage holding containers found anywhere. Taverncraft offers an array of insanely epic steins and glassware for several different games and geek-loved media.
I recently got my hands on the Warhammer Online Epic Collection which features an Order of the Griffon Stein and a Raven Host stein. Each one is over 10” tall and weighs three pounds. They are massive, to say the least. They both come with intricately sculpted pewter lids that proudly display each faction's symbol. They also come with a certificate of authenticity and are available for $119.99 each. Currently the Epic version of the Order of the Griffon stein is sold out, but the Legendary version (read on) is still for sale.
Order of the Griffon steins will cause members of the Armies of Order to freak out. With a skull staring your drinking buddies in the face and the banner reading KARL FRANZ all up in their grills, no one will question your allegiance. The handle is shaped like a huge hammer gripped to the side by a Griffon claw. It feels like a weapon when you hold onto it. The detailing is amazing, from top to bottom, with no shortage of skulls, regal colors and general bad-assery.
Armies of Destruction players can equally represent with the Raven Host stein. With two blue eyes positioned on either side of the stein, there's no escaping its evil gaze. Sculpted with lots of scaly, dragon-like details, the stein lets people know “if you mess with my root beer, there will be consequences.” Again, fans will find no lack of skulls, vivid colors and amazing details. There is also no question whom you represent when this stein is in your possession.
As if these gifts weren't enough, there's more! What could possibly be more epic than owning a huge friggin' stein, you ask? How about getting a free in-game version for your character when you purchase one for yourself? That's right, each Warhammer stein comes with a code that will unlock a corresponding Order of The Griffon or Raven Host Ale stein for your character. Each in-game Ale Stein grants 15% experience, renown and influence bonus for 120 minutes.
There are also Legendary versions of each stein available, boasting an 18 karat gold lid as well as plenty of gold detailing on each stein. Only 500 of these limited Legendary versions will be made and are on sale now for $189.99. You can also purchase them as a set and save yourself $60.
