A little stationary figurine that has a head that bobs at the slightest jitter.

From Wiki -
Quote:
A bobblehead doll, also known as a bobbing head doll, nodder, or wobbler, is a type of collectible toy. Its head is often oversized compared to its body. Instead of a solid connection, its head is connected to the body by a spring or hook[1] in such a way that a light tap will cause the head to bobble, hence the name.

Bobblehead: a thin crunchy cake-like food, softly flambeed and smiffered with a smidgeon of calstraps amd marklings and topped with contifereous marbling of gratsified pomplistus.

That sounds perfectly cromulent.
