McFarlane Toys Game of Thrones Iron Throne Room Construction Set

These aren't Lego. They don't fit as nicely together and it can be tough on your fingers at times. The instructions aren't as clear either so you have to be careful as you put it together. With these issues, I normally wouldn't give it many stars, but the end result is amazing. McFarlane is using building blocks as a way to make some incredible dioramas. This throne room is stunning. I really wish they would make kits for other movies/shows beyond just GOT and TWD. One warning, don't put the flat piece that the throne connects to in when the directions say. Leave it off until the end. Attach the throne to it first, then put it in. Otherwise the throne won't stay connected.

This is an awesome set! really detailed and incredible sculpted! many thanks im amazed!

Once it's together this is a beautiful set and a lot of fun since it's perfectly sized for all sorts of small figures. The details are great and I'm really impressed with how McFarlane takes lego-style bricks and designs the models to look so realistic.My favorite part of this model are the stone-face wall pieces. Pretty ingenious how they fit together and the end result is great!The downside is that these are definitely NOT up to lego quality in terms of the plastic or QC. Pieces do not fit together or nest easily. They feel both fragile AND sharp, so expect some sore fingers after everything is put together. The color on the marble parts is very nice, but the texture is thin and sandy? Like there's particulate coming off the pieces as you handle them. Be careful of the candle pieces- they're made of a really brittle rubber that will stress and break when forced even a little. That's a big problem since they don't snap or push into their display clips very easily.The figures have a lot of detail but, again, feel very cheap and are VERY sharp, so you may have to shed a little blood for the Iron Throne!Speaking of which, while everything else is pretty secure once it's in place, the Iron Throne itself doesn't want to remain plugged into its spot. It's made of a hard rubber and it doesn't seem to grip the studs very securely. I'm probably going to just go ahead and glue it in place.When all is said and done, I LOVE having this set as a display piece, it's a wonderful toy in itself. But unlike with lego, assembling it isn't much fun at all and for a building set that's disappointing.

This was amazing, and at such an awesome price that I believe it's a must-have for GoT fans. Took me a few hours to finish (I was just a little distracted during the first part and my big hands had an little trouble getting the smaller pieces in.)The instructions are very simple; Not in English but they don't need to be. Just follow the images and it's easy.I'm grateful to those who contributed great reviews for the input and helping with my decision to buy it. After reading those, and for the price - I didn't think twice. after reading the . Thanks again & to McFarlane Toys. I saw more products to come on the package, but if they were on the way, I figured they'd have been out or online by now.I wanted to get into puzzles again and it's definitely a different type. My thumbs hurt from the tiny pieces, especially when trying to put the Mountains sword on his hip - and keep it there... But it was 1000 percent worth it.My overall opinion is if you're a real fan and collector, buy it.. It's such an amazing addition to my already impressive Game of Thrones collection, and it's easily the BEST priced out of ALL of the GoT memorabilia and items thus far.PS. I hate Joffrey and the Mountain, so I put Ghost, the Stark Direwolf I already had in my collection, partly on the throne coming at Joffrey. That wasn't included, nor the remote controlled candles.)

I bought TWO of these, and it was soo much MORE-Realistic than the Mega-Contrux version.(which does Have: Four GREAT Figures though!)The Throne is Very-Realistic ... whereas the Mega-Construx Back-of-Throne is WAY-too-THICK!-- I Plan on cutting the STAR Out of ONE: so that I can Put One/Each of the Mega-Construx Alternate-Emblems in it! ;-)

So I Purchased this for a cake topper for the GOT lover on my life. It took 3hours and 20 minutes straight to assemble. I broke the head of Gregor Clegane (knight) and had to use superglue to reassemble it. Otherwise after some pretty sore thumbs and pointy fingers it came together beautifully. Worth every penny.

Arrived early and was exactly as advertised. This is going to be a Christmas gift for my daughter and once assembled, will make a fantastic addition to her display shelves. Highly recommend.
