Game of Thrones Season 5 – New Cast Members_ by [Melissa Locker](https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/) ## Melissa Locker Apr 14, 2015 7:17 PM UTC by [Melissa Locker](https://time.com/author/melissa-locker/) ## Melissa Locker Apr 14, 2015 7:17 PM UTC HBO’s [online store](http://store.hbo.com/game-of-thrones-pg2/index.php?g=2&v=hbo%5Fgift-finder%5Fby-show%5Fgame-of-thrones) has everything for the diehard _Game of Thrones_ fan, from house sigil shot glasses to Lannister hoodies to a Dothraki language guide to figurines of Khal Drogo and Daenerys Targaryen. One thing it doesn’t have? A working toilet replica of the Iron Throne. Fans who wanted to swap their porcelain throne for an Iron one were out of luck. Until now. Some ingenious _Game of Thrones_ fans requested a working replica of the Iron Throne as a toilet and the creative minds at [YouTube channel Awe Me](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNKcMBYP%5F-18FLgk4BYGtfw) delivered. The video and possible how-to-guide shows the industrious crafters, sculptors and prop masters behind [Super Fan Builds](https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLUUGFk1wE5OGpRRvLlDE6flFBcFRTGKVI) creating the Iron Throne out of parts like wood, epoxy resin, urethane, neoprene foam and, naturally, a toilet. If the Iron Throne sits in the only bathroom in the house, there’s no doubt the game of thrones will be quite intense. ### See Photos from Game of Thrones Season 5  Maisie Williams as Arya Stark.
