《权力的游戏》粉丝打造铁王座坐便器

There are a lot of "Game of Thrones" super-fans out there. They own dragon-egg cookie jars, plush direwolf puppies. The really fancy fans might even have $30,000 Iron Throne replicas. But only one fan owns an Iron Throne toilet. "Super-Fan Builds," a YouTube series that's created among other things a Groot swing, a BioShock aquarium and a "Lord of the Rings" litter box, took on the task of building the pointiest privy ever made.
《权力的游戏》有很多超级粉丝，他们有龙蛋饼干盒、冰原狼毛绒玩偶等等,甚至有粉丝拥有价值3万美元的铁王座复制品。但是现在能拥有铁王座坐便器的只有一个粉丝，Super-Fan Bulids团队专门为超级粉丝制造仿真道具，他们的作品包括银河护卫队里的树人格鲁特、生化奇兵的水族馆、指环王中的小盒子等。

The lucky fan is John Giovanazzi, a bar owner who keeps "Game of Thrones" beer on tap at his establishment. Prop-making company Tim Baker Creations started by taking measurements of the bathroom space destined to hold the Iron Throne latrine. Next came the design phase. "People are drinking. You probably don't want a toilet that has lots of sharp spikyedges on it," says Baker.
这位幸运的超级粉丝名叫约翰，他在自己酒吧内供应《权力的游戏》啤酒。道具制作公司Tim Baker Creations在测量了卫生间的空间尺寸，然后开始设计这款铁王座坐便器。该公司表示：“人们都在喝酒，估计没人会想要坐在一个被尖刺包围的马桶上方便的。”

The Iron Throne toilet is made with a plywoodbase and back plate and fake swords. Sword hilts are cast using plastic. Some of the blades are fashioned from neoprene foam to allow them to bend around the shape of the chair. The throne looks very naked until the painting starts, when it begins to take on the color and look of the famous throne design from the TV series.
这款铁王座坐便器由一个胶合板底座、挡板以及很多仿制剑构成。剑柄全是用塑料铸成的。有些剑的剑刃上还涂上了橡胶以使它们弯曲而更像铁王座的形状。框架完全做好之后才开始上色，一上色立刻感觉与《权力的游戏》中的铁王座非常相像。

The Iron Throne shell is installed over a functioning toilet in Giovanazzi's bar with a conveniently placed sword hilt acting as a toilet-paper holder. Even the toilet seat is painted to blend in with the metallic look of the majesticseat.
这款铁王座坐便器被安装在约翰酒吧里日常使用的卫生间内，坐便器的右手边上的刀柄正好用来放厕纸。冷艳的金属色让这款坐便器看起来异常华丽。
