關於an overview of all bobbleheads,參見Vault-Tec bobblehead。 |
Vault-Tec bobblehead figures are promotional Vault-Tec items in Fallout 3.
Background[]
Vault-Tec bobbleheads are found on the eastern side of the former United States, throughout the Capital Wasteland. Bobbleheads were exclusive Vault-Tec merchandise available to executive-level employees of the Vault-Tec Corporation.[1] They were also offered as a gift to individuals who had been accepted into vaults.[2]
Characteristics[]
There are 20 bobbleheads in the Capital Wasteland. Each of the Vault-Tec bobbleheads permanently increases one of the 7 S.P.E.C.I.A.L. statistics by 1 point, or one of the 13 skills of the player character by 10 points.
The bobbleheads will not increase a statistic beyond the maximum of 10 (S.P.E.C.I.A.L.) or 100 (skills). If one has already reached the maximum levels of skills and SPECIAL points, the bobbleheads will not add additional points. Once found, the bobbleheads can be stored on a bobblehead collector's stand in the Megaton house or the Tenpenny Tower suite.
Two of the achievements and trophies involve collecting the bobbleheads. The first achievement/trophy is Yes, I Play with Dolls and is awarded for collecting 10 bobbleheads. The second achievement/trophy is Vault-Tec C.E.O., received once all 20 are found.

Notes[]
- Bobbleheads acquired through console commands cannot be put on the bobblehead stand, and do not count towards any of the bobblehead-related achievements.
- Bobbleheads spawned via the player.placeatme console command can be picked up and placed on a bobblehead stand.
- Bobbleheads from TestQAItems cannot be put on a bobblehead stand.
- In the Point Lookout add-on, several "fake" bobbleheads called "Schmault-Tec bubbleheads" appear during a hallucination sequence after being sprayed with the Mother Punga fumes. These are identical in appearance to normal bobbleheads but are larger in size. They cannot be added to inventory but give taunting, sarcastic messages. For instance, when finding the Luck bubblehead, it says "Dead mother, life in a post-nuclear Wasteland and not a friend in it. Yeah, you aren't exactly blessed." When finding the Charisma bubblehead, there are birthday balloons and a skeleton on an operating table labeled "Mom." There is a Schmault-Tec bubblehead for every S.P.E.C.I.A.L. stat, but none for skills.
- Despite being created before the war, the Barter bobblehead (and the Bobblehead: Caps, which uses its model) hold a bottle cap aloft.
- Regardless of where the bobbleheads are found, they all wear Vault 101 jumpsuits.
Behind the scenes[]
The bobbleheads were used as a Fallout 3 promotional item by Bethesda Softworks and are included in the Collector's Edition of the game. They are similar to those in-game, but are shorter with an arms crossed pose.
