Check it out. Exhibit in... New York right now (it's a traveling show) with a spectacular collection of screen-used props and costumes.

Of particular note, of course, is the display of swords and weapons  Ice is bloody massive, as is Gregor Clegane's ring-hilted greatsword. Jon Snow's 'Longclaw' scabbard almost has a Roman look to it with the brass side-gutters. I am also very tempted to ask if the crossbow is Leo Todeschini's work...
Brienne's helmet looks pretty clunky, to be honest. I do like the rest of her armour fine, though-- it's just that the helmet doesn't look as good as the rest of it...
Shame they couldn't have put more armour into the show, but you can't have everything

What a surprise! Lord Eddard Stark's sword Ice (2nd from left) is also on display but with a shorter blade.

I just couldn't take that show seriously after watching the south park episodes of GoT. The stuff got stuck in my head.
