After the IPO: Game of Thrones Furniture

You don't need pet dragons to take this Iron Throne, just a cool $30,000. HBO is offering a life-size replica of King Joffrey's seat from the hit fantasy series, made of 350 pounds of fiberglass and resin. (No, it's not actually iron. That would have required a crane for delivery).

Got $30k? What better use for it than to own this Aegon I Targaryen-designed iron throne

You don't need pet dragons to take this Iron Throne, just a cool $30,000. HBO is offering a life-size replica of King Joffrey's seat from the hit fantasy series, made of 350 pounds of fiberglass and resin. (No, it's not actually iron. That would have required a crane for delivery.)

Was the throne constructed using dragon's breath to melt the swords of a thousand vanquished soldiers? Doubtful. But we'd still like to own one. So once the IPO makes us all gazillionaires, expect to see us plugging away at stories, MacBooks on our lambskin-clad laps, perched in our pimp new task chairs.

Here's hoping profits will go toward improving special effects for season three.
