Chris Christie Bobblehead Hits Market, Clinton and Trump Dolls Too: PHOTOS

The "Presidential Series" of bobbleheads features Clinton, Trump, Christie, Sanders and other political heavyweights.

You haven’t hit the big time until you’ve got your own bobblehead doll.

The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum recently announced the release of a bobblehead of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie… one of the “most requested” political figures in the museum’s 2016 Presidential Series.

The political product line — which came to fruition after staff raised more than $10,000 via a Kickstarter campaign — also features the presumptive 2016 Democratic and Republican nominees, Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump, as well as Bernie Sanders, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio, as well as a Democratic donkey, Republican elephant and the first-ever “BobbleFlag.”

Like many political pundits, the museum’s staff was surprised when Trump chose Mike Pence as his running mate over Christie.

According to the museum, the Christie bobbleheads were shipped from the factory earlier this month with a blank mini yard sign and two sets of stickers. The first set of stickers read “Trump-Christie 2016,” while the second set was a generic “Chris Christie” version.

“When we made the production decision, it looked like Christie would be Trump’s pick for vice president, but we made the decision to produce two sets of stickers so we could apply them when they arrived based on Trump’s final decision,” said National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum Co-Founder and CEO Phil Sklar.
