For Blog #232, we'll be taking a look at Character Product's BIG HEAD SERIES bobbleheads.
BIG HEAD SERIES
Not to be confused with Character Product's Pro-Kaku Heroes Mini Big Head figures line,
the BIG HEAD SERIES was a line of 7 inch bobbleheads Character Product released in the
early 2000's.
Each bobblehead was made of polystone with included ring ropes that were actually made
out of fabric. The names of each Wrestler were written on the base of each bobblehead.
Generally speaking, the roster of Wrestlers featured in the BIG HEAD SERIES were a
mixture of Japan's top Pro-Wrestlers, recognizable legends and mixed martial artists
from the era (who all had exclusive marketing licenses with Character Product at the
time).
The BIG HEAD SERIES can be broken down into two sub sets:
