When WETA Workshop first approached us with the idea of partnering some of their IP with ours, we couldn't believe our luck. These were the guys who made In The Name of the King, after all, and since that movie stars Burt Reynolds, there was a pretty good chance they'd introduce us to him. Eager to raise that chance to 100%, we sent them over a contract demanding they produce Burt Reynolds at any partnership meetings. Their lawyers told us they'd actually made some different movies about kings: Return of the King and King Kong, neither of which feature Burt Reynolds in even a minor role.

Dr. Grordbort's Victory Pack is a pack of Soldier items released on July 20, 2011. It was created in collaboration between WETA Workshop and Valve, and is based on Dr. Grordbort's Infallible Aether Oscillators.

As with most packs, the items are available via drop, craft, and purchase. Anyone who purchases the pack through the Mann Co. Store will receive Dr. Grordbort's Crest. In addition, visiting the WETA stand at the Dark Horse booth at Comic-Con 2011 would allow you to obtain a promo code for a free, but untradeable Righteous Bison.[1]

Trivia

  • The items went missing from Dr. Grordbort's world as reported in his missing shipment manifest. The rocket carrying them is thought to have gone through a hole in the fabric of space.
  • In the comic, the final quote was "Pack up the tea boys, We're joining the SPACE MARINES!" is probably a reference to the Space Marines from the Warhammer 40k Game series
