Time to destroy the month of September

Any hard core bobblehead collector knows that once the end of August strolls around, the stadium giveaways start to come to a halt. Many people freak out because trades and the excitement of going to games to score a bobble starts to end. Granted, there are some basketball and football bobbles given out in the Autumn months, it’s nothing like the summer time. Most people tend to think, ” What’s there to talk about since bobblehead season is over?” And also, a ton of people pack it in and call it their “offseason”. I call bullshit on that. 

To me, their is no offseason for bobbleheads. I’m gonna pump out so much content it will make your eyes fucking bleed. There is no offseason. It’s a 12 month passion and it will continue to rise. Sit back and buckle up as the Fall and Winter months will only warm up. 

Motivational Thursday

It doesn’t matter one friggin bit the failures that you have gone through. People can laugh all they want, but in the end you are trying. You WILL be successful. Remember, these people who are laughing and ridiculing you haven’t even started yet. Keep grinding!

Bobble of the Day “Ivan Rodriguez” SGA Bobblehead

Bobble of the Day

Player: Ivan Rodriguez

Team: Florida Marlins 

Year: 2017 

Manufacturer: BD&A

So the year Pudge gets inducted into the Hall of Fame, many teams gave out Pudge bobbleheads and rightfully so and the Marlins jumped in. This one is kick ass in terms of the meaning behind it. 

Pudge is in the famous pose when he held on to the ball after getting pile driven to the ground from close play at the plate. As you can see from the video below, Pudge got the shit knocked out of him but still held on to the ball. 

The base is square and has the home plate on top which is an obvious move. Pudge is in his catchers gear and the most important thing, is he’s showing the ball he caught after getting run into. It’s a powerful play and a huge moment in Marlins history.

 

Sniper Rating: The box adds that much more likability to the bobblehead as it includes photo’s of Pudge and Marlin colors all over each side of the box. A sure fire bobble to score for your collection as Pudge is now a member of the Hall of Fame and this item belongs in your cabinet. Pudge scores a solid 8.0. 

Motivational Tuesday

Stick to your DNA. 

Be who you are. Don’t change to be accepted by others. You are your own person and that will carry you to bigger and better things. Stick to what you know, work hard and I promise you will succeed in whatever it is you do.

Bobble of the Day “Russell Westbrook” Special Edition Bobblehead

Bobble of the Day

Player: Russell Westbrook 

Team: Oklahoma City Thunder

Year: 2017

Manufacturer: Forever Collectibles

So here is our first “Special Edition” NBA bobble from FOCO and it’s a beauty. You all know the numbers Russell Westbrook put up last year with the triple-doubles and I’m glad FOCO highlighted him for their first NBA exclusive. 

The entire bobblehead is flooded with detail as Russ is coming at you dunking the ball in your grill. Westbrook is literally jumping out of wooden stalks as the superb athlete that he is. His face demonstrates him screaming in joy as he often does on the court when he makes a phenomenal play. The base has a rubbery look to it and it’s very bright. The backing of the bobble displays the OKC logo in a “Thunder” cracking emblem. Very unique feature to say the least.

 

 

 

 

Sniper Rating: Again, FOCO provided us collector’s another Fidget Spinner and it’s killer. It’s a mixture of a circular and triangle spinner with the words “Oklahoma City and Thunder” engraved all over the place. I’ve never seen a spinner of this magnitude as the feel is incredible. Lastly, the box is another dynamite feature as FOCO put a legit black and white photo of Russ on one side and the OKC logo on the other. Overall, the bobblehead itself is 12 inches tall and the detail is spot on. You can even see the pristine cuts in Westbrook’s biceps and shoulders! I don’t need to tell you that this belongs in your display case. Now that Russell has some help this year with the addition of Paul George, the sky’s the limit to where OKC can go. You can bet Russ will put up very similar numbers as last year. This Special Edition Westbrook bobble scores a 9.5 without hesitation. Score this one Snipers as it’s for sale on FOCO.com
