Title: Important Tips For The Custom Bobbleheads Process
1Custom Bobblehead Process
2Introduction
Custom bobbleheads are a special kind of gift
because they usually represent people, companies,
animals, or events. Many custom bobblehead
vendors operate as eCommerce companies with no
physical store location so shopping for these
products can be a challenge, especially for
first-time customers. During the process, we show
head proofs, body proofs (if full custom is
utilized) and color proofs. Each step can be
approved or modified, if a change is requested,
we will amend the doll and provide a new proof -
if it is approved we will bake that step and move
towards another proof. As approvals are received,
we bake and process your dolls, we can not move
backwards.
3Tip 1 Body Type
Bobblehead sites offer hundreds of body types
but theres really two main categories Fully
Custom and Standard Body
Fully Custom can be designed head-to-toe.
Standard Bodies are based on certain models like
a businessman (pictured), nurse, baseball player,
etc.
4Tip 2 Head Bobble
Believe it or not, some bobblehead websites
charge extra for head bobble action. It does
not come standard. The lesson here NEVER assume
anything when it comes to your bobblehead.
No head bobble action, no bobblehead!
5Tip 3 Props/Accessories
Bobblehead props and accessories can include a
number of things like hats, glasses, tattoos,
logos, handheld objects, and more. Most result in
additional charges that are small (8-10) but
add up quickly.
Some companies dont list these extra costs on
their site. Instead, the consumer is surprised
with an adjusted bill in the end.
6Tip 4 Base
A regular base is typically included in the
initial price of your bobblehead. However, a
larger or customized base (pictured below) will
cost more.
Words and lettering on the base is an additional
charge. Some sites use a flat rate while others
charge per word or letter.
7Tip 5 Material
Quality custom bobbleheads are made from a
durable polyresin material. Some companies opt
for polymer clay instead because it shortens the
process.
Unfortunately for consumers, polymer clay is a
CHEAPER and much more FRAGILE substitute.
8Tip 6 Proofing
Proofing is the process whereby customers
actually approve, deny, and request changes to
their bobblehead. This may be included in the
initial cost or an a additional charge. Not all
proofing processes are created equal.
Some sites allow for unlimited proofing while
others grant you ONE proof per stage.
9Tip 7 Extra Copies
Keep an eye on pricing when ordering copies of a
bobblehead. Some companies offer a discounted
price while others charge full price for the
extra copy.
Most companies provide discounts on bulk orders.
Ordering 50-100 copies of a bobblehead could get
you a 50 discount.
10Tip 8 Shipping
If youre ordering multiple bobbleheads, beware
of shipping rates. Some sites use flat rate
shipping. Others charge per bobblehead, which can
be quite costly.
You can choose ships within 2-3 weeks standard
processing, 15 days urgent processing, or 10 days
very urgent processing when order online and
checkout.
11Conclusion
Custom bobbleheads are a great gift idea but the
process itself can be daunting for new and
returning customers. A good website combined with
a great customer service team will alleviate most
issues but the consumer should always be
prepared. Perform your due diligence to ensure
you end up with the desired bobblehead product at
the right price.
