The cicada bobblehead is a thing. Here's how you can get one

When it comes to cicadas, people either love them, don't mind them … or eat cicadas as a snack.

No matter, though, there's no denying the colorful, relatively harmless and non-invasive bug.

And what better way to commemorate the tail end of the cicada brooding season than by having your very own cicada bobblehead figurine?

Here's how to get a limited-edition cicada bobblehead.

What does the cicada bobblehead look like?

Each cicada bobblehead figure features a full-color, full-body cicada perched on a patch of grass.

The cicada's head bobbles in a way similar to the motions of an actual cicada.

According to the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, which manufactures and sells the cicada bobblehead, each figurine three is 3 inches tall and 5.5 inches wide.

"Positioned on a base bearing its name across the front with a grass-like texture on top, the cicada bobblehead features its prominent red eyes set wide apart, short antennae, and membranous wings," read a press release from the bobblehead museum. "The bobbleheads, which will be individually numbered, are only available through the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum’s online store."
