Bobbleheads are scattered throughout the wasteland in Fallout 4. If you come across one, they will grant you a permanent perk reflective of each Bobblehead’s specific effect.
You can put them on display on custom-made Bobblehead stands, or hold onto them (they have zero weight) if you feel like keeping them close.
