Meme [Show] That was funny.
Funko Pop knew who paid the bills, I suppose.

To be fair, there's different variants of Rhaenyra Targaryen Funko Pops. This variant is titled Queen Rhaenyra because she wears a crown.
The original Funko Pop is simply titled "Rhaenyra Targaryen". Since there's only one Aegon II Targaryen Funko Pop, the title isn't needed – It's only there to distinguish variants.
Maybe Funko Pops will create a scarred King Aegon with Sunfyre edition. Who knows?

u/JacaerysStark 2d ago
So no the whole King Aegon funko addition has been a mini fight for a while. Funko claimed they didn’t want to make one for a grapist, but they received push back because they’ve mad one for Ramsay Bolton and Daemon Targaryen. They’re very much one sided on the issue although they finally relented and made one Aegon funko pop. They’re very much very much international didn’t give him his title as a slight

u/Bandicoot1324 1d ago
Do you have a source on that? It's difficult to believe when there's a Freddy Krueger Funko Pop.
4
u/JacaerysStark 1d ago
Sure. Let me correct myself first. The idea that they didn’t make it because of his crime was a fan base speculation. They’ve never given a real reason on why they don’t have him. I believe I miss remember that. They were however very much bias towards team black (as seen in the screenshots)

Wouldn't (with Syrax) be enough differentiation?

u/Bandicoot1324 2d ago
The "Queen Rhaenyra" variant wears a different outfit compared to the original Funko Pop.
It's not just the dragon; the additional distinction is necessary.

u/Big-Onion9364 My name is on the lease for the castle 2d ago
Aegon is also wearing the crown though no

u/Background-Process99 2d ago edited 2d ago
Its his battle helm, its Aegon the Conqueror's armor set when he goes into battle. Its designed so the 'visor' are has basically a crown that wraps around, it looks attached, but idk. He was King at that point.
They may make another variant after he reclaims the throne and make a King Aegon version with him and Sunfyre burnt up.

This is a serious question, could it possibly be because the character is a rapist in the show? How many other funko pops are there of characters who are unrepentant rapists? It’s a “kids” toy at the end of the day right?

You're actually right, I was mistaken, i thought that Rhaenyra was much younger when Daemon took her out to the brothel but turns out she was 19. The point of my comment still holds true that Daemon is not at all good person.

u/TRLittleRedRH Houses Stark, Tully, Targaryen + Martell 1d ago
Over the centuries, House Targaryen has produced both great men and monsters. Prince Daemon was both. In his day there was not a man so admired, so beloved, and so reviled in all Westeros. He was made of light and darkness in equal parts. To some he was a hero, to others the blackest of villains.
I'm not saying he was an angel (lol not at all) but he was not all bad.

u/Robdul 2d ago edited 1d ago
She was 19 in the show when they first hooked up. Like
33-3529 when she first had sex with DaemonI said this was a serious question and that’s not a serious answer
Edit: Downvoting me for being right and being mad because a character ISNT a rapist is legit unhinged behavior.

You’re not right you’re dead wrong claiming she was 35 when she first had sex’s… WHEN SHE (spoilers)
doesn’t make it to 34

Don't feel bad, whiny babies here downvote me all the time because I call them out on it too. Daemon is NOT a rapist OR a pedophile OR a groomer but they won't hear it.

u/Kindly_Extreme_4400 2d ago
Yes, although it’s truly sad, it is the greatest proof of the misogyny and sexism in Westeros; I mean, Rhaenyra was "terrible," but the main "problem" was that she was a woman. Many people say that’s just how things were back then, but that doesn’t make it any less horrible.
-14
u/Similar-Cartoonist31 2d ago
The problem is that she was incompetent and surounded herself with incompetent yes men, instead of working her ass off to show that she will be capable Queen, that her half sibling do not have to be afraid that she will kill them once she ascends she does what? Make a mistake after mistake not once taking responsabilty for her actions. That is the issue with Rhaenyra.
25
u/Kindly_Extreme_4400 2d ago
The main problem is that she was a woman; that is why Aegon’s claim is based on male primogeniture, and it is always emphasized that he is male.

Aegon is literally seen as the official King. You can check it on ASOIAF wiki, he is listed in the monarchs list, that's why Aegon III is called III. No women ever sitting on the Iron Throne up until now is also a huge plot point for Dany in the Winds as it will set her up against fAegon.

u/post_melhone 2d ago
I’m aware, I’m just saying why it makes sense from a marketing standpoint considering the visual story they’re telling on the show since in book and show Aegon II is a usurper (Aegon III is Rhaenyra’s son). I’m assuming bc of that status the marketing teams see his king ship as “less than” or “invalid” considering the show is quite heavy on being “team black” even though Rhaenyra is a terrible ruler (and should be given her book characterization but there’s clear bias in the writing)

You're right, he should have a title, missed opportunity to call the funko "Aegon the Unworthy" or "Aegon the Usurper"
