25 of the 2024 'Herky on Parade' statues now have their very own bobbleheads!

Earlier this year, 100 new, unique Herky statues were unveiled and placed around the Iowa City area as part of the 3rd generation of 'Herky on Parade.' According to the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame website, it was the "largest public art project Iowa has ever produced," and all 100 of the statues were painted by local or regional artists.

Last week, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum in Milwaukee announced that they would be releasing a line of limited edition bobbleheads, each one an 8-inch replica of one of the new Herky statues! There are 26 bobbleheads total: 25 are replicas, and one is a "Paint Your Own" Herky. Here are what all 26 bobbleheads look like, plus where you can find each of the full-size statues that they are based on:
