Bobbleheads
All seven of the S.P.E.C.I.A.L. Bobbleheads have been moving up this week. On first sight they're just another mana rock, but they can all do something... special. All of them could've been bought for about a dollar, but now they'll fetch a lot more. The Strength version seems to have gone up the most with about 719%, while Charisma only went up 161%.
There are a few too many to get into detail, but these mana rocks all have another activated ability that gets more powerful depending on the amount of different Bobbleheads you control. This means that you most likely want to play multiple to have a better effect.
