So am I just imagining things or wasn't there some company that announced they were going to be developing Game of Thrones figures? This was quite a while ago -- like about 2 years ago maybe? What ever happened with that...?

I can't believe a show as popular and successful as this still has no figures.

Oh well, at least we'll be getting some swag now, and there's that throne (in 2 scales!)still to come sometime this year.

I can't wait to see what these "sculptural minis" of castles, etc. will look like!

That was Dark Horse who is still doing statues and such. No word on what's happening with the figures. I'll be sure to find out at Toy Fair.
