Meet the Targaryens and Velaryons
The Targaryens and Velaryons are at the heart of
House of the Dragon, a prequel to the iconic
Game of Thrones series. Set nearly 200 years before the events of
Game of Thrones, this series focuses on the Targaryen family’s rise to power and the infamous civil war known as the Dance of the Dragons. Here are the characters you’ll be adding to your collection:
- Rhaenyra Targaryen: Rhaenyra is the daughter of King Viserys I Targaryen and a central figure in the Dance of the Dragons. She’s a strong-willed and determined character, who is fighting for her right to the Iron Throne. Known for her intelligence and fierce nature, Rhaenyra is a fan-favorite, and her journey is full of twists and turns. The Funko Pop of Rhaenyra captures her in her iconic purple robe, looking every bit the Targaryen queen.
- Baela Targaryen: Baela is the daughter of Prince Daemon Targaryen and Lady Laena Velaryon. A dragonrider like her father, Baela is courageous and loyal to her family. In House of the Dragon, Baela's character is crucial as she represents the younger generation of Targaryens who will be swept up in the civil war. The Baela Targaryen Funko Pop is a must-have for fans who love the Targaryen legacy and want to celebrate the fierce women of Westeros.
- Jacaerys Velaryon: Jacaerys, often called "Jace," is the eldest son of Rhaenyra Targaryen and Laenor Velaryon. As a potential heir to the Iron Throne, Jace has a lot on his shoulders. He’s brave and determined, much like his mother, and plays a significant role in the coming conflict. The Jacaerys Velaryon Funko Pop showcases him in his warrior-like attire, ready to defend his family’s honor.
These characters are deeply connected to the rich lore of
House of the Dragon, making these Funko Pops not just collectibles but pieces of a grand story that fans can immerse themselves in.
