Do you own any bobble heads? (You, not your kids for DH.)

sfnative — Tue, 07 Apr 2015 23:46:53 GMT

If you do own one or some, what have you got?

Never thought I'd own a bobble head, let alone two, but I do. I have one of Abby from NCIS (it's darn cute) and one of San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey (my fav).

I know they're rather out of fashion, but was curious if anyone else has made the leap.

I own the grand sum total of two. It was the 25th or 30th or something anniversary of the Muppets. I bought Kermit and Miss Piggy. I hope the boxes are in the attic . . . maybe I'll try to sell them. One of those ""moments"" when I purchased them.

My son and husband have quite a few. Hockey and baseball players mainly.

We were just at the Nashville Predators game two weeks ago and added four more to their collection. Son will give friend at school who gave him one from a game he didn't attend to repay him.

I have a friend who collects them. You can get both Roosevelt's and other Presidents from PBS. Also have seen Martin Luther(the reformer). Very cute! Personally I have Mickey Mouse bobblehead.

OP here,

Thanks so much for sharing your bobble stories. DH thinks I'm nuts for having 2. They're just neat to have. Think my GD will enjoy Abby when she's older.

We have a few of some baseball players. They were given out when we went to some baseball games, several years ago.

A few years ago . . . since we are a family of four . . . one per ticket . . . when they had the bobble head at one of our SPHL (lower level than NHL) . . . hockey games . . . I was able to send the parents and seems like another family/friend . . . the bobble head of their son! I don't recall what shipping was to Canada, not as much now for sure . . . but it felt really good to send them those extra bobble heads of their son.
