Massive spoilers for Game of Thrones Season 6, Episode 5.

Following the shocking fate of Hodor in Game of Thrones, and the reveal of what his name actually meant (“Hold the door”), enterprising GoT fans jumped to Kickstarter to crowdfund a pretty clever Hodor doorstop. The project smashed its target, but it wasn’t official, and ultimately it was just a block of wood.

Another Kickstarter has now popped up — this time with an actual 3D printed Hodor holding your door. Not only is it pretty damn impressive, it also looks like HBO might sign off on it. Creator TOny Wang writes on the campaign page:

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.

So this one could be official. It has already $50,000 more than it’s meagre $5,000 goal, so if HBO like money — and we’re sure they do — it’s hard to see why they wouldn’t give it the ok.
