ST. LOUIS — In light of the billions of cicadas that have emerged across the Midwest, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum unveiled Friday the first cicada bobblehead.

The cicada bobblehead features the insect’s prominent red eyes, short antennae and membranous wings, according to a press release. 

"We’re excited to create this bobblehead celebrating the triumphant return of the cicada,” said Phil Sklar, National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum co-founder and CEO. 

“The sounds of summer have taken on a new meaning in 2024 with the arrival of the popular insects. This bobblehead is a must-have for cicada lovers everywhere.”

The bobbleheads are exclusively available on the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum’s website

The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum is located in Milwaukee, Wis., and opened in February 2019. 

It also produces high-quality, customized bobbleheads for retail sale, in addition to organizations, individuals and teams across the country.
