The future of American politics is going down the toilet. So why not choose a candidate who knows those murky waters all too well?
What is a prototype?
A prototype is a preliminary model of something. Projects that offer physical products need to show backers documentation of a working prototype. This gallery features photos, videos, and other visual documentation that will give backers a sense of what’s been accomplished so far and what’s left to do. Though the development process can vary for each project, these are the stages we typically see:
Proof of Concept
Explorations that test ideas and functionality.
Functional Prototype
Demonstrates the functionality of the final product, but looks different.
Appearance Prototype
Looks like the final product, but is not functional.
Design Prototype
Appearance and function match the final product, but is made with different manufacturing methods.
Production Prototype
Appearance, function, and manufacturing methods match the final product.
About this project
The Story
What began as a silly expression, The Dump has morphed into a physical manifestation of the not so funny joke that has become the 2016 Election and the American political process as a whole.
The Road To Not Only The White House But Your House
Before The Dump arrives at your doorstep (careful not to step on him), he’ll be on the road, one that will take him all across this great land of ours.
The campaign trail starts in New York City, on September 15th. From there it’s Washington DC, Philadelphia, and finally Atlantic City, to visit some of those classy casinos he's heard so much about.
Check the schedule for your chance to meet The Dump, as well as pose for pics and even pick up swag.
To keep abreast of The Dump’s interactions with his constituents, be they humans or otherwise, be sure to regularly check the blog.
Don’t forget social media! Follow The Dump on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, Tumblr, Vine, and Snapchat via @votedump.
Behind The Scenes
Candidates are not born, they are made; our team in Brooklyn worked long and hard to find the perfect ingredients to excrete the perfect Dump.
First, we digitally created the perfect symmetrical swirl. If your foundation isn’t strong, the whole campaign can fall away.
Personality is then added to the swirl. A nominee has to have a specific look and feel, a Presidential swagger. Or sneer.
And finally comes the color.
The Final Product(s)
Available exclusively via this Kickstarter campaign are two highly collectable tributes to our fearless leader.
The first is a 5-inch tall figure made in roto cast vinyl and hand painted by our finest craftsman's children in China...
The second is the premium Dump, which comes with its own personal wall. It's made from the cold cast porcelain and produced entirely in the US, hence the price jack...
The Icon (and Iconography)
What’s a campaign without the proper iconography? How else are you gonna sell stuff like shirts and other junk?

Rewards
Tell the whole world how much you believe in The Dump, as well give us even more of your hard earned money. It's a win-win for both of us!
Risks and challenges
The Dump has already been designed, and our factories are raring to go. All we need is your support to help ignite the movement. We have a proven track record, as demonstrated by the strong relationships that have been built over many projects over 20 years with many partners in the toy industry.
