History
The museum was established in 2014 by Brad Novak and Phil Sklar. The museum did not find a permanent location in Milwaukee until 2017. When the Guinness Book of Records certifies the museum's bobblehead collection, it is expected to surpass the current record holder Phil Darling who was certified to have 2,396 bobbleheads. The museum often makes bobbleheads for current events such as "Alligator Rob and Chance the Snapper"; in 2019 the museum made a bobblehead for a Carson King of Iowa, who was featured on ESPN's College GameDay. Sales of his bobblehead will generate donations for University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital.
