The Cicadas are back: This time, they're merchandise!

From bobbleheads to stuffed plush toys and even earrings.

GREENSBORO, N.C. — What's the tourist spot you're sure to visit this summer? Maybe it's the biggest ball of twine. 

When my dad was visiting he wanted to drive to Durham to see the old stadium in the movie Bull Durham..and of course, we had to take a picture with the bull.

When my family went to see the giant Redwoods, we of course had to take a picture of the tree where you can drive through it. 

On your list may be the National Bobblehead Hall of Fame and Museum. It's in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, It's been open to the public since 2019. It has sports people, politicians, and stars all in bobblehead form. This year they made a special bobblehead of a Cicada! 

It's a limited edition, all to commemorate the unusual overlap of The 13-year and 17-year cicadas. 

If you look at Amazo, you'll find t-shirts, but also a cicada in plastic--as a paperweight, earrings, and other jewelry as well as a cicada plush doll.. You name it-- you can find it. It's the year of the cicada.
