I really enjoyed „A song of Ice and Fire” book saga and TV series “Game of Thrones” based on those books. That is why I pay close attention to all modelling releases connected to them. One of the companies that realised related kits was Nutsplanet. At first they have issued two busts and after a year two more followed. Deanerys Targaryen is forth of them and first one to resemblance a woman. Name „Mother of Dragons” suggest strait away that this bust will feature Khalesi which was played by Emilia Clarke. Just like previous busts this one is also in 1/10 scale and it is packed in cardboard box with photo on top. Jun-Sik Ahn did a stunning job on the sculpt and the box-art was painted by Myeong-Ha Hwang. Box is filled with black foam and under first layer you find dragons wings and his tail and claws packed in small bag. Other parts are under next layer of foam. This time they are bigger (torso, hair, head, dragons body and pin) Eleven parts are casted in grey resin. Their quality and precision is of the highest level. Head is very nicely sculpt. Face features allow you to recognize actress straight away. All thou the hair is very delicate there is a lot of detail on it. Back part of the hair is magnificent just like the rest. Torso ideally represent the small physics of Deanerys. Young dragon which is located on here shoulder is highly detailed. Wings of the dragons are rather thin and non the less they have a lot of features. Tail is not standing out with the lack of detail. Smallest parts of the set are dragons claws and pendant. Last element if this set is pin for mounting the base on to another pedestal. You can see that this set contains many parts. Mainly because of the young dragon that is included, which will certainly make this piece stand out among others. High quality of the cast and the enormous amount of detail became a trade mark for this company. Just like in the case of the Imp the only missing part for me is the characterised pin for the bust. Which first two bust from the series had.

Yeah, I am hooked, too (Claudia and I had three seasons done in less than a week, I go crazy about this series!), and the Khalissi looks super cool, great sculpt! Oh, how I would love to have the characters in 90mm as full figures...

What have I waited for this bust. And to be honest, Im slightly disappointed. Yes, shes modeled damn good, but I have the feeling that its not herself. The dragons face looks different and hers too. On the other hand: Its fantasy, so thats okay. Nuts Planet did a damn good job with Tywin and Jon, and now with Daeneris. What was the fourth bust again, Biskup?
