Game of Thrones Westeros Glass Map Isn’t Made from Dragon Glass

Posted on by

Back in the day, we went to the carnival when it came to town each year. Everyone seemed to win those glass mirror squares with different sayings on them by throwing darts at balloons. Often there were a bunch of broken ones scattered around the parking lot. Game of Thrones fans don’t have to throw darts to get this Westeros glass map – they just need cash.

The glass map offers up a full view of Westeros, and comes with sticky stuff to hang it on your wall. If it should fall, it will shatter easier than The Wall did. It is made from tempered glass so if you drink too much and break it; you won’t bleed like a dragon stuck with a giant arrow.

ThinkGeek has these in stock for $24.99 and ready to ship now. Perhaps they’ll make a version that shows what’s West of Westeros when that inevitable spin-off hits HBO.

Stitched Map of Westeros: String’s Landing

Posted on by

Some mothers are just plain awesome. Take the Mother of Dragons for instance. Also, the mother of redditor lkd10019312 is one such mother. Why? Because she made this amazing stitchwork map of the continent of Westeros from Game of Thrones.

This map is very nicely detailed and very cleverly uses buttons to imitate the animated gear map sequence in the introduction of the show. This awesome map took her five months of work and it was well worth it.

Game of Thrones Risk Board Game: World Domination is Coming

Posted on by

This beautiful Game of Thrones version of Risk was created by Fay Helfer. The detail is amazing and the set comes complete with pyrography artwork and a detailed, carved map of Westeros. It was made as a commission for Matt B, who is now the envy of the interwebs.

The surface of the board and the case are apparently made from wood that was hand carved and burned. Westeros was already a beautiful 2D map, but this this game is even more lovely and blows that out of the water. There are also fabric pouches included in the box which hold the game pieces.

If only I had the extra money, I would commission one for myself. You did a great job Fay.
