What could I use to varnish a plastic doll (toy) that I painted with acrylic paint?

Most gloss or semi gloss acrylic paints can now be used on plastic. Maybe even a satin finish would be better. I've painted plastics, metal, wood all with the same paint. Check label or ask sales person and with something like clear you'd be better off financially by buying a can from a paint shop cos I'm sure you'd use it for alot of other things apart from what ur doing or if you do a lot of dolls same thing. Hope it turns out beautifully........

One of the most popular souvenir items is the bobble head doll. Some people know it as a wobbler, a nodder or a bobbing head toy. It got its name from it distinction with other dolls. From the name itself, bobble head dolls are characterized by having a small body compared to its head. The head is attached to a spring and when it is tapped or moved even a little, the head then nods or bobbles. It is like the plaster cats you see on Chinese stores which wag their head when slightly moved. So who created it and how did it become popular? The modern bobble head was first introduced during the 1950’s.
