After all of the social media outrage over how Jon Snow treated his direwolf, Ghost, in recent episodes of Game of Thrones, this Funko POP lets us make it right.
Spoilers for Game of Thrones season 8 ahead.
As part of the final season of Game of Thrones, viewers are saying goodbye to many of their favorite characters. But, the same can be said of the characters as well, as they have suffered losses and said their own goodbyes. However, there is one goodbye moment that has truly upset many viewers, as Jon Snow sent his trusted direwolf, Ghost, off to the North with Tormund.
What has upset so many fans is the fact that after all this time at his master’s side, Ghost did not even get a proper farewell. Instead, Game of Thrones allowed the battle-scarred direwolf to be sent away without even a hug or a pet from his owner. And with many viewers being upset at Jon Snow over this poor treatment, we wanted to find a way to right this wrong.
In order to give Ghost the love he should have had from his true owner, we recommend snagging one of the Game of Thrones Funko POP dolls that was specifically made in Ghost’s likeness. (There is even a key chain version of Ghost that would allow you to take the direwolf with you everywhere you went, unlike Jon Snow.)
With your very own Ghost to show love to, you can give him all the petting and love that Jon forgot to give his direwolf before his shipped him off to the North with someone else. And yes, we get that this was supposed to be an act of love, as he wanted his trusted companion to be able to run free, but that doesn’t mean he couldn’t have said goodbye. So, where Jon Snow failed, we can make it right.
The Ghost Funko POPs are available on Amazon for $19.99, while the key chain version of the direwolf is just $6.98. Snag one or both of them in order to do what Jon did not, and give Ghost all the love that Game of Thrones denied him.
And just think, having your very own Ghost also means that even when the show ends, you still have a piece of the series with you for the next time Winter comes.
