The Syrax Icons Statue by Iron Studios puts Rhaenyra Targaryen’s dragon from House of the Dragon on your shelf at 11.5 inches tall. It’s priced at $600 and is expected to ship between October and December 2027. I’ve wanted a proper Syrax for a while, and I like that she’s getting the spotlight to herself.
The Syrax Icons Statue by Iron Studios is a limited edition, hand-painted polystone statue of the dragon Syrax from House of the Dragon. It is made by Iron Studios as part of its Icons line. It costs $600, is available for pre-order now, and is expected to ship from October to December 2027, with a limit of 6 per person.
A Dragon Built Wide, Not Tall
The number I keep coming back to is the width: 19.3 inches (49 cm) against an 11.5-inch (29 cm) height. That’s a horizontal piece, which makes sense for a dragon whose whole personality on screen is wings and neck. Plan your shelf around that footprint, because 8.9 inches (23 cm) of depth means a standard bookcase works, but only if nothing else is sharing the row.
Why Syrax Is the Right Pick
Syrax is Rhaenyra’s dragon, the one fans picture the second someone says the princess’s name. She isn’t the biggest beast in the Targaryen stable, and I think that’s exactly why she works at this size. A smaller, readable sculpt suits a dragon defined by her rider rather than by sheer bulk, and I’d much rather have the dragon tied to the show’s main storyline than a generic monster.
Paint and Polystone
Iron Studios lists this one as hand-painted polystone, and scales are where that choice either pays off or falls apart. Syrax reads as yellow on screen, so the paint team has to keep that color warm across a lot of overlapping texture without it going flat or muddy. The listing also notes the images show a prototype, so I’m watching for production shots before judging the final scale work.
How It Stacks Up
At $600, the obvious comparison is Prime 1 Studio, whose creature statues tend to set the bar for layered texture on reptile skin. Iron Studios usually lands closer to clean sculpting and solid bases than to that ultra-dense finish, and that’s fine at this price. The polystone weight is listed at 1.2 lbs (0.5 kg), which is lighter than I’d expect for this footprint, though size and weight are flagged as approximate.
Shelf Planning
If you already have House of the Dragon pieces, Syrax wants to be the centerpiece of the Rhaenyra side of the shelf, with Team Green kept a polite distance away. She’s also an easy bridge to an older Game of Thrones display if your Targaryen collection spans both shows. One timing note: arrival dates are estimates, and the listing warns she may ship as late as March 2028. We’ll update this if Iron Studios firms up the window.

The Collector’s Survival Guide: How to Justify This
The Collector Math: In Astapor, one dragon was worth all 8,000 Unsullied. Syrax is $600, so by Slaver’s Bay prices I’m getting an army for seven and a half cents a soldier. Even the Good Masters never got a deal this good.
How to tell your wife: Every time the men in her family drove her crazy, Rhaenyra climbed onto Syrax and flew off to cool down. You’ve put up with me for years, so you deserve the same option. I bought you a getaway dragon.
How to tell your parents: You always said I could have a pet once I was old enough to take care of it. Rhaenyra was riding Syrax as a teenager, and mine weighs 1.2 pounds and never needs a single sheep. By Targaryen standards, I’m years overdue.
How to tell your kids: This is Syrax, Queen Rhaenyra’s dragon, and a Targaryen queen only needs one word to end an argument. In this house the queen is Mom, so you may look at Syrax all day but never touch. Mom’s word isn’t Dracarys; it’s your full name.
I think Syrax earns her shelf space if you’re building a Rhaenyra or Targaryen display, mostly because that 19.3-inch spread gives her real presence without demanding a dedicated cabinet. My only hesitation is the prototype paint, so I’d keep an eye on production photos of those yellow scales before the October 2027 window rolls around.
