Now our pals over at Funko have been awfully cagey about when (dare I say "if?") their next wave of Legacy Thrones figures is arriving. Will they really wait for Comic Con in July?! It's been a while, Funko. But while we're left scratching our heads, good old Dark Horse continues to release new ones, albeit largely unarticulated. In addition to the ones mentioned above, we know we're getting The Hound, a big Hodor and Bran set, plus a terrific sculpt of Brienne of Tarth due as well.
What I did not know until today is that they have a wave in the chamber for this September, too, featuring none other than Ser Jorah Mormont! Jorah looks great, and while this isn't my favorite armor of his, it's a pretty great sculpt of a particularly awesome character.
Then we have Dark, or "Darth" Sansa, as some folks like to call her. While a great rendering of the character, it feels like they've missed the likeness mark here, and her expression is just a bit too Stepford for me. Still! A great addition and now Baelish won't have to stand around by himself! So a pleasant surprise on the heels of another fascinating episode of Thrones last night.
Dark Horse is plowing through most of the major characters. Come on, Funko - step it up! I'll be honest - I was bowled over by the articulation of Funko's Legacy line - their Jaime Lannister is amazing. But Dark Horse has given their figures a certain...something. I guess I'm just going to have to collect both!
