Even Funko's Cute Game Of Thrones Figures Make Joffrey Look Detestable
When Telltale Games announced a partnership with HBO to bring a new Game of Thrones interactive experience to market, many people, Game Informer's Matthew Kato included, wondered if this developer could capture the harsh realism of the show. We won't know for certain until that game hits the market, but perhaps Funko's newly revealed Game of Thrones minifigure collection will ease your mind until that day arrives.
This is about as cute as Game of Thrones is going to get, and the figures still look fairly cool. And then there's Joffrey, a dead-eyed, whiny psycho-tot. This figure captures his unlikable essence, and is small enough to throw into a river. We don't know if the "crown" is removable, but regardless, if you are handy with Dremel, you'll be able to restore order.
The rarity chart below shows that Joffrey is fairly common. If you happen to get him when these figures release in March, please let us know what fate befalls him.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription.

We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
