Bobbleheads
Last Updated: Jul-12-2014
Each bobblehead permanently increases one of the 7 S.P.E.C.I.A.L. statistics by 1 point, or one of the 13 skills of the player character by 10 points but not past the maximum of 10 (S.P.E.C.I.A.L.) or 100 (skills). Because of this, is inadvisable to max out any S.P.E.C.I.A.L.s before collecting the bobbleheads, as then the bobblehead will have no effect.
With the addition of the “Almost Perfect” perk that becomes available when level 30 is reached, (Broken Steel add-on required) it is tempting for advanced players to wait until they can use this perk, then collect all Bobbleheads. “Almost Perfect” raises all S.P.E.C.I.A.L. to 9, so collecting all bobbleheads after taking the perk makes all stats raise to 10. This requires waiting until level 30, however, which could handicap you for most of the game.
