Much like season five, you'll have to wait awhile if you want to get your hands on these Game of Thrones spice shakers. While you'll have to wait some time for the next season of GoT to premier, you only need hold on until October to get your hands on these shakers. These salt and pepper holders are a ThinkGeek original and are designed to look like House Lannister and House Stark map markers.

These shakers are officially licensed, which often doesn't mean much. However, in this case it counts as the shakers are actually 1:1 replicas of the props used in the actual show. The Game of Thrones spice shakers will sell for $19.99 (for a set of two) when they go on sale later in the year.
