Choose Your House with Game of Thrones Resin House Cards

What are your thoughts on the card game? Are any of you big fans of Game of Thrones?

Also, if you shop around you can find some really good deals on the core set and house expansions this week.
Or you could use them as display plinths for the game of thrones miniatures from dark sword.
They are a tad bit bigger than the cards themselves.
House card is basically the sigil that represents your house, you place power on it, some cards can be attached to it. Resin versions are just an extra fancy aesthetic to the game play.
FFG released a couple in the past, the greyjoy one goes from 120 to 160 bucks on the internets having been sold out for some time now.
How come there are discounts this week on the GoT sets? any links? am after the house expansions…
