Three Game Of Thrones Collectibles To Buy And Stare At Until Next Season

What’s worse than a Game of Thrones season coming to an end? Facing the next eight plus months missing it every Sunday night. The HBO series wrapped up its sixth season last night and ended on such an epic note.

[WARNING: SPOILERS FOR GAME OF THRONES SEASON SIX BELOW!!!]

One: Starting on a small scale, you might want to stare at this Funko POP! ride on that features Daenerys and Drogon. Her status reached a whole new level of fantastic this season. I love how much the dragons can really play a part now.

 

Two: Jon Snow! Well, he managed to come back from the dead and he was really productive after that. He’s taken the north back and gained a new title. We’re all pretty happy for him I think. He deserves it.

Three: Perhaps you should just grab this nice throne room playset… but you’ll need to swap out a few different figures to get it just right.

Can anyone else still hear that piano song from the beginning of the episode? Beautiful and memorable.

If you haven’t watched this season of Game of Thrones yet, get on it. It’s the best season yet.
