“Is it literally just the bobblehead?” — Fortnite community is disappointed with Fallout Vault Boy Bobblehead

Fortnite has become renowned for its ability to collaborate with other IPs (Intellectual Properties) and brands, bringing different universes to the Battle Royale Island. One such recent exciting crossover involved the Fallout franchise, the popular RPG series developed by Bethesda.

The collaboration was one of the flagship features of Chapter 5 Season 3, with the T-60 Power Armor being featured in the Wrecked Battle Pass, bringing a much-awaited collaboration to fruition. However, while the initial crossover launch was exciting, players expected more content from it, presumably in the Item Shop.

This is where the Fallout Vault Boy Bobblehead Back Bling comes in. This was the only cosmetic to arrive in the Item Shop through the Fallout collaboration.

The release of this singular Back Bling in the shop via the crossover has ignited a flurry of reactions from the community, with one individual saying:

“Is it literally just the bobblehead?”

So is it literally just the bobblehead? that's the entire fallout collab's shop selection? byu/mystireon inFortNiteBR

Other members of the community took to the comments, with Reddit user u/Alternative_Exit7749 expressing how, while they like the Back Bling, it does not justify its 600 V-Bucks price point.

u/Degora2k, on the other hand, pointed out that the Back Bling was a massive letdown and that defaults in Vault Boy outfits would have been better additions to the Item Shop.

u/tianchris101 expressed their desire to see a skin inspired by Nuka-Cola Girl, a popular mascot in the Fallout franchise. Meanwhile, u/Alphasilverhawk highlighted their frustration with Epic Games' practices with cosmetics and the Fortnite Item Shop.

How to get the Fallout Vault Boy Bobblehead Back Bling in Fortnite

The Fallout Vault Boy Bobblehead Back Bling was released in the Item Shop on June 29, 2024, and seems to be Epic Games' only Shop offering for the Fallout collaboration. However, that does not take away from the back bling's appeal, especially since it perfectly captures the essence of Vault Boys from the Fallout franchise.

If you want to acquire the Vault Boy Bobblehead Back Bling, you can do so by visiting the Item Shop and purchasing it for 600 V-Bucks. However, make sure to get it soon as the back bling will be taken out of the Item Shop on July 3, 2024.
