Sideshow Game of Thrones....maybe?

[The Mike]

From their Ask Sideshow update:

Q.
Has Sideshow had any thoughts of doing products based on HBO’s “Game of Thrones”?

A:Incredible show. One does not simply THINK of doing products based on HBO’s Game of Thrones

Now obviously they are quoting the Boromir/Sean Bean Meme:

The thing is that the meme indicates something that you are not supposed to do. So either the meme is being used incorrectly or maybe they are saying that they they aren't just thinking about it, who knows but it's something official.

Although going to Lord of the Rings for a cheap laugh when Game of Thrones has a bunch of stuff you could utilize...*shrugs shoulders.

I would really go for 1/6 figures from this show. Need figures of Ned, Jon and Jaime.

Sideshow won't do 1/6 of Game of Thrones.

They'll do prop replicas, maybe a PF, but most likely 1/6 or 1/5 statues. If anything at all. Thinking about doing products doesn't mean anything.

Hell, I think about making toys, doesn't mean I'm going to do it. I 'think' about a lot of things.

one of my favorite book series and hbo made it a great show, but i wouldnt buy any of the character statues, they just arent iconic or unique enough.

I'd take a Tyrion Lannister please.

 

[Darth Waller]

If they can't sell enough LOTR fingers to keep the line going, I can't see there being much interest in GoT figures.

Freaking show is awesome, watching the entire first season today

 

[Fremen]

I'd be all over it. Especially if they did this.

^ Instant buy.

I thought you might be more into a Daenerys piece with her dragons since you have an affinity to the scaly fire breathers.

 

[Darth Snoopy]

If Sideshow does gets this license I'll be all over it like a cheap suit!

 

[jrice73]

I need a Tyrion Lannister statue. And that would be the only one I would buy because everybody else in that series does not hold a candle to Tyrion.

 

[xYx]

Diorama idea right there Sideshow. Now hop to it.

Quoted for the muther____in' truth!

SSC already has this license. It's called LOTR...

You'd think. I can't help it though, I LOVE Sean Bean when he's all done up in Medieval gear.

 

[denger4000]

I just wish any company would put out figures already

but I believe that Dave spoke with someone from SSC at SDCC and it's not happening.... Although I love the possibility as I'm currently watching (again) season one on BR (with commentary when the episode has it) to get ready for season two starting next week...

I'd love PF's or 1/6... but if LOTR can't fly the chances of that are minimal... which is a shame really.

 

[LordAzrael]

I'd love 1/6th but unfortunately I can't see Sideshow taking on proper armoured figures which rules out the most interesting.

 

[Deak Starkiller]

Pfft, SSC. It ain't happening. Now Game of Thrones LEGO, I'd bite. Fantastic show.
