Dec. 17, 2008 - PRLog -- Kansas City, MO - The Bobblehead, LLC releases its rare Osama Bin Laden Bobblehead, the only one of its kind. Bin Laden, the most wanted man in the world, has been avoided by most Bobblehead companies as a Bobblehead to create. "We felt that now was as good as any time to create Bin Laden. We see it as a reminder to everyone that work still needs to be done to protect our freedoms as Americans," says Matt Powers, Sales Manager at The Bobblehead, LLC. Lynn, as a Vietnam Veteran, was more than behind the project. "Our collectors were always asking for a Bin Laden so we decided to create one," says Lynn.The Bobblehead is a Limited Edition of 100, making them instant collectibles. Sitting on a bed of rocks to make him the most uncomfortable. Each piece is hand signed and numbered by Mr. Lynn.Lynn has created a wide range of lifelike political figures for the Lynn Collection, ranging from Sarah Palin to Che Guevara. Each Bobblehead is a Limited Edition of 100. "We find that a collectible of 100, is much more appealing to collectors and fans. Plus, with the lifelike quality that Rick can design, it makes our Bobbleheads the best in the industry. Many Bobblehead companies just create anything that looks remotely close to the person and then put his name on the bottom. We go through many clay and paint changes to make the person as real as possible."
