Upper Deck Announces

“SPECTRAL SAFARI”

For the World of Warcraft Miniatures

Spectral Tiger World of Warcraft^® Loot^™ Card is Grand Prize

in One-Day, Sealed Tournament!

North Las Vegas, NV (February 5, 2009) – The hunt is on! Upper Deck (UD) announced today “Spectral Safari,” a global, one-day World of Warcraft^® Miniatures Game tournament at select hobby stores on March 14, 2009. The victor of each individual “Spectral Safari” tournament will bag one of the biggest World of Warcraft^® trophies, a Spectral Tiger Loot^™ card! Visit WoWMinis.com for more information.

Recipient of the 2008 Diamond Gem Award “Game Product of the Year,” the World of Warcraft Miniatures Game launched to great acclaim in November, 2008.  The “Spectral Safari” is the first elite Organized Play event for this dynamic new game, and features unbeatable prizes!  

In addition to a Spectral Tiger Loot^™ card for first place, high level finishers will receive Minis boosters.  Plus, a Red Baron Loot card will be a door prize at each location.  And if that’s not enough, every participant from around the world will automatically be entered into a drawing to have their World of Warcraft online character made into a Mini!  One player and one judge will be randomly chosen and announced on the World of Warcraft Miniatures Game website in April. 

On March 14, World of Warcraft Miniatures Game players can battle it out for the most sought-after Loot^™ cards yet. Hobby stores the world over will host these sealed tournaments, giving everyone a chance to take part in the hunt! Anyone who enters will have an opportunity to win great prizes. 

“As part of the World of Warcraft brand, the Spectral Tiger has been hugely popular, and we wanted to give people another chance to get this great card, while also getting a taste of our newest game,” said Scott Gaeta, Upper Deck’s Director of Marketing and Organized Play.  “The World of Warcraft Miniatures Game started attracting a great following even before it launched, and this event is an exclusive opportunity for new players to try out the game, and get a shot at a Loot^™ card.”

Tournament locations will be announced on February 12, 2009.  Hobby stores interested in hosting a Spectral Safari, please contact your Upper Deck representative.
