National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum Unveils Special Edition University of Miami Centennial Sebastian the Ibis Bobblehead.

August 29th, 2025

In honor of the University of Miami’s 100th anniversary, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum today unveiled a special edition Sebastian the Ibis Centennial Bobblehead. The collectible celebrates the University’s centennial year, marking a century since its founding in 1925.

The bobblehead, officially licensed by the University of Miami, features the beloved mascot standing on a base adorned with the 100th birthday logo. Sebastian strikes The U hand symbol while wearing Miami’s signature orange football jersey, a nod to the spirit and pride of Hurricanes fans. Each bobblehead is individually numbered to 2,025, making it a limited-edition keepsake for alumni, students, faculty, and fans.

The unveiling coincides with College Colors Day, a national celebration encouraging students, alumni, and fans to wear their college colors to showcase school spirit and support higher education.

“We’re excited to unveil this special edition bobblehead celebrating the University of Miami’s centennial,” said Phil Sklar, co-founder and CEO of the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum. “This bobblehead is a must-have for Miami fans who want to honor this historic milestone.”

About the Bobblehead:

  • Price: $40 each, plus a flat-rate shipping charge of $8 per order

  • Availability: Now available in the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum’s online store

  • Shipping: Expected January 2026

  • Features: Sebastian the Ibis in Miami’s orange football jersey, standing on a Centennial base, individually numbered

About Sebastian the Ibis:
The ibis, a local marsh bird, has long been a symbol of courage and resilience, believed to be the last to take shelter before a hurricane and the first to reappear after a storm. Adopted as the University’s first unofficial mascot in 1926, Sebastian has evolved over the decades into one of the most recognizable college mascots in the country, delighting generations of fans.

About the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum:
Located in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum opened to the public on February 1st, 2019. The Museum produces high-quality, customized bobbleheads for retail, individuals, organizations, and sports teams nationwide. For more information, visit bobbleheadhall.com

Lila Nikole and Platinum FUBU Bring the Amazonia Experience to Miami Swim Week

Published

on

Miami Swim Week is about to get even more immersive. On Sunday, May 31 at 2:00 PM, designer Lila Nikole will present The Golden Standard: Amazonia Experience at Tequila Town in Miami, debuting a new collaboration with Platinum FUBU during one of fashion’s biggest weekends in South Florida.


May 15, 2026

Inspired by the richness and mystique of the Brazilian rainforest, the presentation moves beyond the traditional runway format and into a cinematic, multi sensory experience where fashion, storytelling, music, and visual artistry come together in one space.

Known for her bold and culture driven design aesthetic, Lila Nikole transforms the venue into what organizers describe as a living narrative filled with character led moments and immersive visual storytelling. The event will also introduce a limited edition Lila Nikole x Platinum FUBU collection, marking a new chapter for both brands.

“This collaboration is incredibly personal for me,” says Lila Nikole. “Growing up in Queens, FUBU was more than a brand, it was a cultural force that shaped my earliest connection to fashion and identity. To now partner with a label that played such a pivotal role in my journey feels truly full circle.”

The collection reimagines Platinum FUBU’s iconic legacy through Lila Nikole’s creative lens, blending the brand’s signature identity with a modern, luxury focused perspective.

The event also coincides with the continued expansion of Platinum FUBU, the designer driven evolution of the iconic label known for its premium materials and fashion forward silhouettes.

Adding to the atmosphere, Miami based cultural partner Miamibloco will feature Bateria Saideira, described as the largest Rio style samba percussion orchestra in the United States. Music throughout the experience will also include sounds by DJ Dinero and DJ Trauma.

Rather than separating guests from the presentation, the experience is intentionally designed to feel intimate and barrier free. Attendees will move throughout the space while engaging directly with the craftsmanship, textures, and details that define both Lila Nikole’s aesthetic and Platinum FUBU’s luxury direction.

What: The Golden Standard: Amazonia Experience by Lila Nikole in collaboration with Platinum FUBU
