Over the years, there have been many ups and downs in the popularity of these figurines. History of these creatures is very interesting. The first official mention of these dolls was in the short story by Nikolai Gogol from 1842 when he stated that the neck of one of the characters “seems extremely long, just like the neck of small plaster cats that you can buy from main foreign vendors in Russia”. Bobbleheads are manufactured all over the world. They are also produced in Germany, where they look like shaped ceramic animals in sizes ranging from 15 to 20 cm.

Hope all is well! The bobblehead came out great. It was a total surprise…It is much better than I expected. Not only the doll itself, but also the accessary is perfect. It is a birthday gift for my father and he really loves it, especially the raiders t-shirt on the bobbleheads. As we’re living in California, we all love Oakland Raiders. My father said it was an unbearable team when he was my age. We always enjoy the games no matter win or not. Now I am thinking about ordering a bobblehead in raiders jersey. Share a video of raiders and tell me if you can make the jersey on my bobblehead.
