| Features:
| • | Look into the future with the Mystic Seer! From the The Twilight Zone episode 'Nick of Time.' This bobble head includes fortune-telling cards! | | • | Wouldn't this look great on top of your TV set? 'The hand belongs to Mr. Don S. Carter, male member of a honeymoon team on route across the Ohio countryside to New York City. In one moment, they will be subjected to a gift most humans never receive in a lifetime. | | • | For one penny, they will be able to look into the future. The time is now, the place is a little diner in Ridgeview, Ohio, and what this young couple doesn't realize is that this town happens to lie on the outskirts of the Twilight Zone.' | | • | Based on the classic The Twilight Zone episode 'Nick of Time' that starred William Shatner, this terrific Mystic Seer Bobble Head measures about 6 1/2-inches tall x 3-inches wide x 2 1/4-inches deep, and it even includes fortune-telling cards as part of the packaging. Wouldn't this look great on top of your TV set? Note: This item is a bobble head; it is not a full-size working replica of the Mystic Seer. | | • | 'You're traveling through another dimension, a dimension not only of sight and sound, but of mind. A journey into a wondrous land whose boundaries are that of imagination. That's the signpost up ahead. |

 Will I Live in the East? The West? The Twilight Zone???? March 12, 2010

I just got this unique, nostalgic curiosity only a month or so ago - but am amazed to see it no longer available, unless it was such a popular item it just sold out and more must be manufactured. I don't know...
What I do know is that I love it! It is a very accurate (though much smaller) reproduction of the original as featured in the classic TZ episode. However, at first thought, I was disappointed that it was not the size of the original and that it was NOT functional.
Then I thought more about it. If it were functional, and held the cards that the Mystic Seer pops out at you for a penny apiece, well, I might end up like the Shatner character and NEVER want to leave the damn thing - and I might end up going through my entire penny jar, too!
So...I have revised my first impression and am delighted with the desk-top size and authenticity of the reproduction - and love the fact that a bunch of Mystic Seer cards set in the exact same typographical font as shown in the episode accompany this now mysteriously, devilishly unavailable item.
I am glad I have it - as everyone needs a Mystic Seer! Life just wouldn't be the same without it.

fun bobblehead, broken neck June 4, 2010
Joseph L. Kolb (harris, mn USA)
i read the reviews before buying this and was aware that some had broken necks due to how it was packaged. i took the chance and bought one, and low and behold, my bobblehead had a broken neck. rather than going through the hassle of returning and getting another broken one, i just fixed it with epoxy. i do enjoy the bobblehead and the same handful of cards that come along with it. like everyone mentions, it is nonfunctional. the cards are business size. overall a fun thing to have.

Was so excited to see this novel item from my favorite TV show and one of my favorite episodes that I bought two more as gifts. However sad to say that two out of three came with broken heads and / or horns. Research revealed that this was an issue with the Bif, Bang, Pow! company and not the fault of Amazon, their authorized seller, or the postal service. I believe that the problem stems from the fact that the base is too narrow for the weight of the head, and the head is not securely glued into the base. I will attempt to super glue the heads to the base and hope it will still bobble, but there can be no hope for replacing the broken horns.
I have elected to search elsewhere for gifts, and leave the third bobblehead in the box, so that he has the best chance of keeping his head.
Two days after I ordered, the item became unavailable thru Amazon. I wonder if there are a lot of broken heads out there, which caused the item to be pulled, or it just turned out that I ordered right before the stock depleted.
All that said, it is clever, and looks very similar to "the real thing".
