Game of Thrones Funko Pop Vinyls

I love Funko's pop vinyls and I love Game of Thrones so it would only make sense that invested in some of Funko's Game of Thrones pops. 

Technically these toys/figures are collectors items and many people who buy them don't even take them out of the box to display them in fear of damage or loss in value. I however new that for me these were just a bit of fun and I was never going to attempt to sell them on in the future so I actually threw out the packaging (I know this may pain some collectors to hear but what can I say). 

I purchased all my pops online which again those of you familiar with pop vinyls will know is a risky move as the figures vary in quality of paint job and there really are some crappy ones out there, however I was lucky with mine. you can get pops for numerous different TV shows and movies but I would say they retail at an average price of £10 or $10 depending on your currency.

The first one I purchased was the one and only *deep breathDaenerys Stormborn of the House Targaryen, the First of Her Name, the Unburnt, Queen of Meereen, Queen of the Andals and the Rhoynar and the First Men, Khaleesi of the Great Grass Sea, Breaker of Chains, and Mother of Dragons *exhale*. This is from the first GoT pop series and is one of my favourite looks for her.

The second pop i bought was the ever so handsome Jon Snow. Garbed in his nights watch uniform, this id from the second GoT pop series and there are versions of him where his uniform is covered with snow as there are versions of Daenerys where she appears to be burnt.  



The last pop I have is Cersei Lannister, she was given to me as a birthday present by my amazing friends. This is also from the second series Funko released, I really like this pop and it has more weight to it than the other two I own. 



Now I would describe these figures as affordable and fairly reasonably priced, however I am a student which means I am extremely poor at this point in time and that is the only reason why I do not have a hell of a lot larger collection. I also really love The Walking Dead figures they do and desperately need to own a biker Daryl, TWD is definitely the next series I want to get pops from.

What do you think of Funko's pop vinyls, which ones are your favourite? let me know.
