It’s been almost 53 years since Jimi Hendrix stepped onto the stage for his now-iconic performance at Woodstock, and now, merch and accessories brand Kollectico is honoring the moment with a new keepsake collectible bobblehead, inspired by the memorable appearance.

The officially licensed Jimi Hendrix bobblehead measures approximately 4 inches in height, and is designed to be displayed in the accompanying collectible box, or “sit” on a shelf, desk, dashboard or even on top of your computer monitor.

Each piece is individually hand-sculpted and hand-painted before being packaged in the collector box. Each set also includes double-sided tape if you want to affix the Hendrix bobblehead to a surface.

The Jimi Hendrix bobblehead is an officially licensed partnership between the Hendrix estate and Kollectico, which is also known for a line of Grateful Dead collectibles. Hendrix’s sister, Janie, is the president and CEO of Experience Hendrix and says it was a no-brainer to team up for this collaboration.

“We want those who are devoted to Jimi to have something delightful to add life to the spaces where they live and work and Kollectico has created a beautifully artistic and endearing line that we can all enjoy,” Janie Hendrix says in a press release. “Jimi was fun-loving [and] this is a lighthearted way to appreciate him.”

“Jimi Hendrix embarked on an uninterrupted set lasting nearly two hours—one of the longest performances of his career,” adds Andrew S. Hazen, Founder and CEO of Kollectico. “Jimi Hendrix has always been a huge source of inspiration for me these past 48 years. With such extraordinary imagery in his portfolio, this is an opportunity for us to use our creativity to honor Jimi Hendrix with exceptional collectibles for Hendrix fans around the globe.”

The Jimi Hendrix bobbleheads are being released in extremely limited edition, so we recommend purchasing them while they’re still available online. Each Hendrix bobblehead retails for $29.95 and can be purchased on Etsy.com.
