The Golden State Warriors have unveiled three new bobblehead giveaways that fans can get their hands on during the regular season.

The Golden State Warriors don’t have any trouble filling up the seats inside of Oracle Arena. They never really have. But just in case the world’s best basketball team wasn’t enough to convince you to shell out (a lot) of money, the organization has some great bobblehead giveaways lined up.

The three preseason bobbleheads have already been revealed. In their first home preseason game, the Dubs gave out two-time MVP Stephen Curry bobbleheads. They will also give away a Klay Thompson figure in a San Jose Sharks jersey when they play at the SAP Center and a Draymond Green flexing bobble at their last preseason game at home.

They recently announced that they would be giving out more of them during the regular season. Images have now surfaced. And they’re really darn cool.

On November 28, the Warriors will host the Atlanta Hawks. They will celebrate the newest Warrior, Kevin Durant with a bobble head. Sometimes these figures miss the mark, but this one actually sort of looks like him.

On December 20, the team will welcome the Utah Jazz to Oracle Arena. Fans will receive an awesome Nate Thurmond bobblehead. The Warriors’ great passed away last summer. From the Warriors’ official announcement:

This date marks the 50th anniversary (December 20, 1966) of Thurmond recording 24 rebounds in one half against the Los Angeles Lakers, which remains a Warriors West Coast franchise record. In addition to the Bobblehead giveaway, fans will also have the opportunity to take pictures with a life-sized Nate Thurmond Bobblehead on the Oracle Arena main concourse, outside Section 112.

Again, this is a really great looking bobblehead. The jersey is gorgeous. Thurmond was a powerful man and the muscle definition is spot-on. Also, his hair is extremely accurate.

The Warriors also unveiled a third one that is definitely at the top of the “most unique basketball bobbleheads” list. Here’s Andre Iguodala in a virtual reality headset swinging a golf club in his basketball uniform. Yup.

It makes sense. Iguodala is an avid golfer. Also, he’s really into the tech scene. During the Warriors’ Media Day, the 2015 Finals MVP was sporting the VR headset, so it isn’t all that random. It’s a very unique bobblehead that fans can get their hands when the Dubs host the Miami Heat on January 10.

The Warriors’ are mixing bobbleheads with other sports and hobbies. If that’s not Light Years ahead, I don’t know what is. If you’re planning on going to any of these games, get there really early. The lines will most likely form hours before the doors open.
