Bobble of the Day “Giancarlo Stanton” Hitmen of the Bronx Bobblehead

Bobble of the Day

Player: Giancarlo Stanton

Team: New York Yankees

Year: 2018

Manufactuer: Forever Collectibles 

It’s very evident that all you Snipers know I dispise the Yankees more than I love eating disgusting mushrooms. With that in mind, when greatness appears, you gotta respect it. FOCO designed what I consider a “Masterpiece” of a bobblehead even though it’s of a Yankee player. I love that Giancarlo strikes out a trillon times per year, but he does hit monsterous homeruns. FOCO created a 300 Homerun “Hitmen of the Bronx” Giancarlo Stanton exclusive and it’s the tits. 

Stanton is decked out in a pinstripe “mafia” type uniform with the all white tie. I swear, he looks like he’s ready to take out Rocco’s knee caps for not paying up for a bet he lost. The backing displays the entrance to Yankee Stadium (Gate 4) and it’s close to an inch thick (width wise). The facial features are spot on as this looks identical to Stanton. 

 

 

 

Sniper Rating: Given the brick shithouse sturdiness of this bobblehead, this is one you NEED in your collection. It’s got swag, detail and everybody who’s a fan of baseball is in awe whenever Stanton hits a moonshot. FOCO once again brings the heat and now’s your chance to score this one. Giancarlo Stanton’s “Mafia” like bobble scores a 9.0. Here’s the direct link to purchase. You’re welcome.

Bobble of the Day “Saquon Barkley ” New York Giants Draft Day Bobblehead

Bobble of the Day

Player: Saquon Barkley

Team: New York Giants

Year: 2018

Manufacturer: Forever Collectibles

Thank God the Giants got a high pick in the draft as I was unable to withstand the bitching and moaning from fans on talk radio over here on the East Coast. Unfortunately, I and many others are continually hearing the same cry babies to this day and it’s bad.

The GMEN took Saquon at #2 in hopes he will be their lead back for the next decade. They damn well made a great decision as this dude is the real fucking deal. Have you ever seen this guys legs? They look like 2 foot steel beams that are absolutely indestructible. Try giving this fucking guy a Charlie Horse and your knuckles will shatter right up through your forearm.

So yes, Saquon is good. He runs with speed and massive power and he catches balls out in the flat. He’s an absolute dream to own as a Fantasy Football player. What’s even better is his Draft Day bobblehead.

Now before you assume this is like any other Draft Day bobble, think again. It’s different in many ways and here’s why. The generic base and overall stance is identical to previous years, but FOCO added some swag to this year’s edition. Saquon is rocking the hat that some shemp handed him before he walked up to the stage and it’s got the phrase, “Big Blue” on the front. Yes, it could just had the New York Giants logo on it but no, FOCO wants to keep us collector’s engaged.

 

 

 

Sniper Rating: Given the fact that the facial features are spot on and the suit Saquon’s wearing is pinpoint clean, this is a must have in your collection. It’s super sturdy, well built and even the phrase on the box that reads “The Future is now” is legit as fuck. That phrase alone should be your incentive to score this. We all know that Saquon Barkley will be the New York Giants franchise player at some point and his talent alone should raise red flags for you to add this to your NFL bobblehead collection. A stand up 9.5 rating is what Saquon receives.

 

Bobble of the Day “Aaron Rodgers” Green Bay Packers “Comeback Win” Bobblehead

Bobble of the Day

Player: Aaron Rodgers

Team: Green Bay Packers

Year: 2018

Manufacturer: Forever Collectibles

This might very well be a very easy blog to write on a ridiculous bobblehead. Aaron Rodgers winning a game on one leg? No fucking way right? Well believe it. Week one this year, Rodgers got knocked the fuck out and briefly had to come out of the game. The Packers entered the 4th quarter down 20-3 and Superman himself rolled the troops to a 24-23 victory playing on one fucking leg. Incredible isn’t even the word to describe Rodgers’ heroics.

Low and behold, FOCO created a masterpiece of a bobble depicting Rodgers throwing the pigskin on one leg. The base is solid as a fucking rock and has a gigantic front emblem that reads, “The Comeback”. It also has the final score of 24-23 and both the Bears and Packers logo in raised letters.

 

 

Sniper Rating: The pose of Rodgers on this bobble is downright incredible. The facial features are spot on and this doesn’t have to be in your collection; it HAS to be. What else do you expect from the best player in the NFL? A sure fire 8 inch bobble, this will always keep the memory of this game with you in your bobblehead collection. I’d head over to FOCO.com and score this before every diehard from fucking Wisconsin reads this blog and your shit out of luck. Aaron Rodgers and his Green Bay Packers bobblehead scores a knockout 9.0 rating. Here’s the link and another reminder of the greatest game thus far in the NFL.

Bobble of the Day Texas Rangers “Captain” Mascot SGA Bobblehead

Bobble of the Day

Mascot: Captain

Team: Texas Rangers 

Year: 2018

Manufacturer: Kloanz

Fucking Kloanz back at it again. Is it good or is it bad? How’s it made? Did they fuck it up again? That’s the question us bobblehead collector’s always ponder when Kloanz manufactures a giveaway. This bobble literally showed up at my doorstep. Once I hear Kloanz made a certain bobble, I refuse to spend my hard earned money on a bobble they’ve made considering their history. I’ve already stated that I’m only going to write blogs to either inform Snipers on a “must have” or it’s a garbage bobble and to stay clear from it. Now this one, is quite interesting. 

The Texas Rangers have a dope as fuck mascot as the “Captain” and the promotional department decided to entice fans with a bobble. I hate admitting this, but Kloanz did quite well. Captain has his long snout front and center with tons of detail in his eyes, ears and back-side white hair. Given the fact that he’s holding the Texas Rangers flag is a deluxe feature. The white raised letters on the front of the base are pretty fucking clean. His tail, name and number on the back side demonstrates effort from Kloanz that I haven’t seen in a long time from them. 

Sniper Rating: I do like this Texas Rangers bobblehead. It’s made very sturdy and the biggest surprise, is I don’t see any globs of glue or fucked up paint smears. Kloanz must have seasonal workers painting these and molding them together as this is a good batch. I’m always honest with you guys and I give credit to where it’s due. Yup, I said it. Kloanz did well. Given my history with Kloanz, I’d rate this a solid 8.0.

 

 

 

P.S. If you take a look at the box, it’s smothered in bright colored lettering and cartoonish images of the Rangers Captain. Super eye-popping design. Well done Kloanz for fucking once. 

Is Mike Trout a Hall of Famer right now?

Is Mike Trout already a Hall of Famer? I know it’s early but……….he doesn’t have 3k hits (currently 1,185). He’s got only 239 Homeruns. Yes, he’s got Gold Gloves, MVP’s and Silver Slugger awards coming out of his anal glands. But if the world ended today, would he be in? I don’t wanna hear, “Give him another 12 years and his stats will be off the charts”.  I know they will. It’s obvious he’s gonna break all world fucking records. I’m talking right now. This second in time.  He also has zero World Series titles and not by any fault of his. The Angels organization year after year, surround him with god awful shit talent. So the question resumes, is Mike Trout a Hall of Famer right now?
