In a statement sent to PEOPLE, National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum CEO Phil Sklar said the organization has been “receiving a growing number of requests for a bobblehead of George Santos.”
After hearing that Santos may have used GoFundMe to scam a distraught dog owner, the museum decided it would unveil a Santos bobblehead with a caveat: that $5 from every sale go to dog-related GoFundMe campaigns, in an attempt to make things right.

According to Osthoff, Santos set up a GoFundMe to raise funds for Sapphire, but once the funds reached $3,000, he seemingly disappeared.
Sapphire’s tumor grew and she had to be euthanized, with Osthoff resorting to panhandling to pay for her euthanasia and cremation, he told Patch. “It was one of the most degrading things I ever had to do,” he said.

The bobblehead version of Santos will play clips of some of the lawmaker’s “biggest lies in his own words at the touch of a button,” the museum said in a release. Each will be individually numbered and they are available via the museum’sOnline Storefor $30 each plus shipping.
“No one knows how and when the drama surrounding George Santos will end, but we know the bobblehead will be the perfect collectible to commemorate this unbelievable story for years to come,” museum co-founder Sklar said in a statement.
