What're Bobble Heads Worth, Anyway?

Bobble heads are among the most popular collector's items among people of all ages. Some people have been amassing impressive collections for decades. But did you know that your vintage bobble heads could actually be worth a pretty penny? It depends on two factors:

What Is The Supply?

How many of your collector's items were produced? How many of those produced are still in existence? These questions play a huge factor into how much your item will be worth. For example, if your item was given out at a sporting event ten years ago, it is likely that there were thousands distributed, and that many of these are available to purchase for a nominal price at a retail store. Because of this, your item would not be worth the same amount of money it might be worth a few years from now. Time is a huge variable with supply. The more time that has passed since the item came into your possession, the fewer identical items are probably out there in the world. You should be able to easily find out when your item was made by looking up its serial number or researching the dates of sporting-related promotional events.

What Is The Demand?

Demand measures how much people want your item. It doesn't matter how rare your item is if there isn't at least one person willing to put a price on it. As in supply, time is a huge factor in demand. The longer its been since your item was distributed, the more likely it is that someone will place a higher value on it. Vintage collector's items typically have a high value in the marketplace because of people's nostalgia for bygone eras. If you have memorabilia that is part of a cultural movement or touchstone, it could be very valuable. Demand is also increased depending on location. There are some items that are only available in the United States, and some that are only available in Europe or Asia. People in these areas are more likely to pay a higher price to purchase the item from another region because it is not available where they are.

Are Your Bobble Heads in Pristine Condition?

But above all else, the condition of your item is key. Even if supply is low and demand is high, mint-condition items fetch more money than damaged items. Ideally, your item would be untouched, still in its box or wrapping. Items like these can sometimes go for thousands of dollars more than similar items that have no packaging. Obviously, if your item is unrecognizable, it will be hard to sell it. It comes down to the concept of bobble heads as a collector's item. A lot of people want to collect them to display them in their homes. An item that has suffered extreme wear and tear does not have any place on a collector's shelf. Bobble heads make a fantastic gift for friends, spouses, and children! Contact us to learn more about how you can custom order one today!

5 Ways to Decorate Your Cake With Wedding Bobbleheads

According to Business Insider, naked cakes, drip cakes, natural flavors, and edible toppers are some of the hottest wedding cake trends for 2017. But you don't always have to follow trends. Trends don't make a wedding extra special. It's how well you and your partner planned everything down to the smallest details, especially when you're on a budget. One way you can show off your attention to details is with your choice of wedding cake toppers. And if you've chosen to go with wedding bobbleheads, you'll be glad to know that there are plenty of ways to get creative with them.

How to Get Creative with Wedding Bobbleheads

1. Go with something funny

If humor is one of the strongest bonds you have with your partner, you probably don't need to do a stand-up comedy routine at your wedding (unless you really want to). The people you've invited - assuming they're all close friends and relatives - already know that funny is your thing. Which means if you want to add a bit of humor to your wedding, you can incorporate touches of it throughout the ceremony without going over the top. An easy way to do that is with custom bobbleheads as wedding cake toppers. You can, for example, have a bobblehead doll in a white wedding dress kissing a frog. Or another idea could be a couple bobblehead, replacing the typical bride cake topper with Bridezilla. The possibilities are endless but if you're looking for inspiration, you can check out this Pinterest board.

2. Go sporty

Bleacher Report has a list of the best sports-themed weddings. The couple who went the whole nine yards with their NFL-themed wedding tops the list. From the invitations, which looked like NFL tickets to candy-filled penalty markers decorations, it was a wedding any sports fanatic would appreciate. Now if you're looking to incorporate a little team spirit into your big day, you can try sports-inspired wedding bobbleheads as cake toppers. As we've said before, personalized bobbleheads are a great way to express your personal passion (in this case, sports). Plus, bobbleheads are so versatile. There's one for every sport. So if you and your partner have already decided to go with a sports-themed wedding, you really can't go wrong with sporty bobblehead cake toppers.

3. Go unconventional

If celebrity brides can wear unconventional wedding dresses, you can also put your own spin on classic wedding traditions to make it a truly signature one. Perhaps instead of flowers, you can request your bridesmaids to carry customized lanterns. You can also go big and opt for alternative venues such as a planetarium or a theater. And of course, you can go really offbeat when it comes to your wedding toppers. Do you want World of Warcraft wedding bobbleheads? Go for it! Fancy Star Wars-inspired cake toppers? Those are easy enough to customize with bobbleheads. You can even have Alien vs Predator bobbleheads as cake toppers if that's what you and your partner like.

4. Go traditional

For some people, traditional means boring. But that doesn't have to be the case with your wedding. Also, depending on where you live, there are wedding traditions that are just worth doing. In Germany, for example, newlyweds must work together to saw a log in half. This is done in front of the guests so that everyone can see how well you and your partner can work together in the face of challenges. Or how about Australia's unity bowl wedding tradition? This is where guests are given stones they'll place in a decorative bowl at the end of the ceremony. The bowl and stones are good reminders of the support and presence of loved ones during the couple's special day. Of course, in keeping with tradition, you also need traditional wedding cake toppers. But you don't need to limit yourself to the typical monochromatic options. Wedding bobbleheads are great since you can really make them your own. Plus, you have plenty of options with the bobbleheads' poses. That means you can make the bobblehead toppers as romantic as you'd like.

5. Go seasonal

May through October are the most popular months for weddings. But you can still have the best wedding even in off-season months. The key is to be creative despite the possibility of unfavorable weather conditions. For example, if your wedding date falls in December, you can go for a Christmas theme. A Valentine's Day theme is also a good choice if you're marrying in February. No matter the season though, you have to make sure the little details are taken care of. So for wedding cake toppers, a good choice for a Christmas-themed wedding would be this couple bobblehead wearing matching Santa outfits. Another option can be this one, which is just perfect for a summer wedding. The important thing is to keep the details pertinent to the season so everything's on point.

Choosing Wedding Bobbleheads

There is no dearth of bobblehead makers online. But since this is for your wedding, you shouldn't just go with the first bobblehead company you see. Remember how you chose your suppliers? The process is the same for choosing a company that makes custom wedding bobbleheads. Read reviews, ask questions, and check if the information presented on their website is accurate. You should also consider where the company is located. Will they ship your bobbleheads on time? Should you choose another maker that's closer to where your wedding is going to be held? On that note, you should also know how long the process is going to take. Normally, the process takes 4 to 6 weeks. If you can't wait that long, then you have to make sure the bobblehead company you've chosen can accommodate rush jobs.

A feedback from MCF

"Your team was an absolute pleasure to work with. You never know what you're getting on the Internet, but between the excellent communication back and forth and the photos you shared as the bobbleheads were coming together, and the great followup as it was being shipped and afterwards, you really did a fantastic job. These bobbleheads were a wedding present, and they were a hit. A few days after the wedding, the groom let me know it was far and away the most unique and excellent gift they'd received, and (being pretty full of himself ;) that his image made him look even more handsome than he already is - "as through that were even possible." Thank you!"
