About this project
WARNING: This Kickstarter project contains spoilers for Game Of Thrones Season 6.
My friends and I are huge GoT nerds. We know more about Westoros history than... actual history. We all agreed Hodor should be the one to sit on the Iron Throne until we watched the ending of season 6 episode 5.
As a tribute to this oversized and simple-minded hero, we are creating this 6" "Hodoor" Hold the Door Doorstops. Yes, it actually works as a real doorstop.
We've already hired multiple designers (with over 20 years of combined experience) to bring this idea to life.
The final version will be a, 6" tall "Hodoor" doorstop guaranteed to impress even the nerdiest GoT Fan.
Here is a rendered model of the doorstop so far:
Risks and challenges
We are in the process of applying for licensing rights from HBO for this project. If that falls through and they shut down our project, everyone will be refunded their pledge.
I believe in the idea of massive action, so that's why we've already started everything.

We are working with an attorney specializing in intellectual property law to make sure this project goes smoothly.
The good news is, we are in the process of obtaining licensing rights from HBO.
If for some reason a deal doesn't work out, our Kickstarter project will be taken down and all pledges will be refunded.

The short answer is: plastic. We are experimenting with different types of materials to find a good balance between durability, affordability and aesthetics.
While it would be awesome to print this in metals, that would raise the production cost to over $500 per unit.
