MILWAUKEE — There are six Milwaukee Panthers official bobbleheads that will be unveiled on Oct. 17 to celebrate Pounce the Panther's Sweet 16.

The first four bobbleheads have Pounce wearing different colored UWM basketball jerseys and UWM's school anthem with a push of a button. The remaining two have Pounce wearing vintage Panther merchandise.

The National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, located in Milwaukee, produced these unique bobbleheads.

More information to celebrate Pounce's Sweet 16 can be found here.

I wanted to give you a heads up that on Tuesday we will be unveiling six officially licensed Milwaukee Panthers Bobbleheads to celebrate Pounce’s Sweet 16th Birthday, which UWM is celebrating on Tuesday. The first four bobbleheads feature Pounce in different color basketball jerseys and play the “UWM Fight Song” at the push of a button, while the other two are the first featuring the Panthers’ vintage designs. Pounce’s birthday celebration on Tuesday begins at the Union from 5pm-7pm, with the celebration continuing at 7pm at the Milwaukee Panthers’ basketball scrimmage taking place at the Klotsche Center.

The bobbleheads, which just arrived and ship now, were produced by the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum, which was founded by Brad Novak and me, and we both attended UWM starting in 2002. We now have over 150 collegiate licenses, but given our connections to UWM, these are among the most special bobbleheads that we’ve produced to date. A major inspiration for the Museum came from the first bobblehead that we produced, which is of UWM Manager and Super Fan, Michael Poll.
