Firefighter Bobblehead Figurine "To Protect and Serve"

This is a hand-painted firefighter bobblehead figurine, likely constructed from a cold-cast resin or polyresin material. The figure stands approximately 7 to 8 inches tall on a rounded, tiered grey base featuring the embossed gold/yellow lettering 'TO PROTECT AND SERVE.' The firefighter is depicted with a wide-eyed expression, a prominent dark brown mustache, and is wearing a signature red firefighting helmet with a white shield insert. He is dressed in traditional black turnout gear with high-visibility yellow and silver horizontal reflective striping across the chest, arms, and legs. He is holding a silver-toned fire hose nozzle with both hands, which arches over his shoulder. The painting style is mass-produced but detailed, showing specific individual features such as the texture of the mustache and the folds in the protective clothing. The condition appears to be good with no visible chips or cracks on the primary surfaces, though some minor dust accumulation is present. This piece likely dates from the late 1990s to the mid-2000s and serves as a decorative or commemorative item honoring first responders. The craftsmanship is standard for hobbyist collectibles of this era, emphasizing character and theme over fine art precision.
