Bobble of the Day “Odell Beckham Jr.” Exclusive bobblehead

Bobble of the Day

Player: Odell Beckham Jr.

Team: New York Giants

Year: 2017

Manufacturer: Forever Collectibles

Looking for a top-5 Fantasy Football pick this year? Look no further than Odell Beckham and his wide array of abilities. Is he emotional? Yes. Does he create drama on and off the field? Yes. Is he the most exciting player to watch in the NFL? YES! I don’t care about behavior as any team would love to have a player of his caliber.

So, FOCO came out with a brand new “Exclusive Edition” bobble and ODB is highlighted here. I love how FOCO used a NYG mini football helmet as the base of this bobble. With Beckham making his famous “The Catch” pose, it makes the bobblehead over 12 inches tall! The helmet is of course Giants Blue and has ODB’s name in white raised letters on the front of the base. The GMEN logo and New York City skyscrapers are positioned perfectly against the helmet. His bleached hair and facial scruff are spot on and also goes well with his all-white gloves, ready to catch a poor pass from Eli. 

 

 

 

 

Sniper Rating: Given the amount of detail on this Exclusive Bobble, FOCO provided it’s collector’s with a sick Fidget Spinner. On each side of the 3 blades, Odell is making his spectacular catch and the NY Giants logo and his number #13 are on on each ball bearing. The box once again is insane as on one side is ODB’s number 13 and on the other has a black and white photo of the star player. For $60.00 you can’t go wrong. This is an ultimate collectible not only for GMEN fans but NFL fans around the world. Celebrate Odell on your fireplace mantle on Sunday’s when the guys come over to throw down some cold beers. Putting all the dramatics aside with Odell, this “Special Edition” bobble scores a 9.0. 

Always pick up others when they are down.

Ever here of the saying, “What goes around comes around”? Well, it’s true. You may never think it’s true but it is. When a friend, colleague or family member is down in the dumps, pick them up. Help them out in the best of your ability. Everyone has shit days and things can go terribly wrong. Be the big person and help them through their troubles. 

YOU will be down one day. Hopefully, someone will be there for you. 

Bobble of the Day “Kenley Jansen”

Bobble of the Day

Player: Kenley Jansen

Team: Los Angeles Dodgers

Year: 2017

Manufacturer: BD&A

You Dodgers fans won’t like this but I don’t know shit about this guy. I rarely watch Dodger games but I did see Kenley throw in this year’s All-Star game. According to his stats, he’s hands down the best closer in baseball. I posted a pic on Instagram with Craig Kimbrel and Jansen next to each other and I claimed Kimbrel is better. I take that back. Kimbrel, recently has has his fair shares of ups and downs and this dude Jansen continues to be lights out for the Dodger faithful. 

On to the bobble it self. A lot of West Coast Snipers have not said the nicest things about Dodger bobbles this season as they claim the quality is down a bit. I agree, but not on this one. I think the Dodgers did a good job with their closer on this one. Jansen is in his typical stance ready to chuck a seed to the dish. The base resembles a pitchers mound and the white raised letters against the blue trim look sharp. His cleats looks fresh as fuck and I love how the manufacturer has his fingers separated on the baseball. It gives it a much more “authentic” look. I guess it looks like Kenley with the chin strap beard and all of the numbers and letters are raised on his jersey front and back. 

 

 

Sniper Rating: I’m not a 100% sure what color glove he uses in games but if it’s a light brownish/orange looking color then this glove on the bobble is accurate as hell. The box is all black with shades of dark and light blue streaking throughout. Killer box if you ask me. So, this is a no brainer for Dodger fans to have in your collection as I wouldn’t have personally bought it as it was gifted to me. I like it. It’s cool and I’ll display it with the rest of my Dodger SGA’s. After all, what’s not to like having a bobble of the best closer in the game? Kenley Jansen’s SGA bobble directly from Dodgers Stadium scores a 9.0. 

Bobble of the Day “Billy Joel” Fenway Park

Bobble of the Day

Musician: Billy Joel

Team: Boston Red Sox

Year: 2107

Manufacturer: BD&A

A lot of you youngsters don’t know about Billy Joel. The dude is an absolute icon and has a zillion fans around the world. The Red Sox and a few other teams came out with Billy Joel bobbles this summer that include the Phillies and Cardinals. Only 1,500 of these bad boys were made and having one in your collection should add a little history as Billy will be known as one of the best artists of all time. 

It’s a very classic simple bobble as Billy is sitting at his piano jamming away. The base is black along with the piano and his shirt. The white letters that state his name couldn’t be raised more as they pop out like a mother f’er. The actual keys on the piano really stand out and are extremely visible. This bobble looks exactly like Billy with the balding hair up top and his white/grayish go tee. Spot on from BD&A and a job well done. 

 

 

 

Sniper Rating: I am soooooooooo pumped BD&A didn’t give us a plain white box. This one is covered with Fenway “Green” and it’s not even funny. The high gloss feel to it makes it that much more authentic. There’s a dope picture of Billy singing on the front of the box and on the back has the Green Monster scoreboard with the letters, “Billy Joel” written. The back of the bobble has a sturdy cardboard insert of a picture of Fenway Park which is bad ass. You can easily take it in and out based on your preference. A must have to add to your collection and if you have a few of these, hang on to them as they will rise in value once all the others are gone on Ebay.

The piano man scores a 9.0. 

What do friends and family think of your bobblehead collection?

I wrote a blog about this months ago and I’d like to revisit it. What do your friends and family members say when they see your collection? I’m more or less talking about if you have a cabinet filled with bobbles not just on your desk in your bedroom. 

What do people think? Are they impressed? Are they in awe? Do they make a snarl comment?

I can remember back to when I first started collecting, my mom and dad came over and they shook their heads. My dad is a huge sports fan and he just thought I was too old for these little things. My bro’s first laughed and soon after, they asked if I had an extra of a certain bobble. 

A few years later, when I started the website and changed the way people view and share their passion for collecting, the snarl comments and giggles turned into “Wow”. The point of this is TO NOT CARE WHAT OTHERS THINK. If it’s what makes you happy then forget all the doubters. Most of us are all grown men, and we can look at others who collect books and recipes that sit there and collect dust. Share your experiences on what others view and say about your collections!
