Bobble of the Day “Aaron Rodgers”

by Bobble Sniper | Dec 12, 2016 | Bobble of the Day

Player: Aaron Rodgers

Team: Green Bay Packers

Year: 2011

Manufacturer: Forever Collectibles

You gotta love what Aaron Rodgers has done ever since he took Brett Favre’s place as Green Bay’s quarterback. Does the dude have weapons all around him? Yes he does. But the fact that he’s so calm in the pocket and given the fact that he can scramble makes him a top tier QB in the league.

This bobble highlights Rodgers winning the Super Bowl MVP award back in 2011. He absolutely killed it that year and his Super Bowl performance was even more insane. The base is super dope as it’s got the championship ring on the front with the Green Bay logo. The letters “MVP” are spelled out on the back which adds a great feature to the overall base. I love that the entire base is a shiny chrome color as it makes the bobble that much more attractive. It’s very eye appealing as it also matches the MVP trophy the Rodger’s is holding. The football pants are standard yellow and green along with basic white socks. I like how FOCO had Rodgers wear the championship T-shirt that players wear after they win the big game. It just adds authenticity of the huge accomplishment the players achieved all season.

Sniper Rating: Rodgers is the man in all regards. He’s a proven winner and a shoe in to the Hall of Fame in Canton. I have this identical bobblehead in a 16 incher but I like this 8” one much better. It’s more compact and can easily slide into your curio cabinet. Try your best to score this one for the collection as it’s a must have. In 20 years we all will be looking back and saying how truly good A. Rodgers was and you’ll definitely kick yourself in the nuts if you didn’t add this one in your collection. Given the fact that Rodgers is easily a top 2 QB in the league and how truly badass this bobble is, I’m confident with an overall 9.5 rating on this one.

Bobble of the Day “Charles Woodson”

Bobble of the Day

Player: Charles Woodson

Team: Michigan Wolverines

Year: 2016

Manufacturer: Forever Collectibles

Charles Woodson is the man. He was nasty when he played in college at Michigan and he was nasty when he played in the NFL. The dude can straight ball. Even though he just retired from the NFL, he’s still involved in the game as an ESPN analyst.

So let’s discuss this bobble a bit. First of all it’s very exclusive as only 158 were made. It’s part of a “College Legends” series for top notch players who balled in the NCAA. The obvious thing is his stance is imitating the “Heisman” pose that he won back when he was a Wolverine in 1997. Many people don’t realize that he beat Peyton Manning for the Heisman that year which is pretty fucking bad ass in itself. The uniform is very detailed showing off the blue and yellow colors of Michigan. I dig the black cleats as it meshes well with the all-black base. Granted the lettering of his name and number on the back of the jersey could have been “raised lettering” , I don’t think it takes away to much appeal from this bobble. FOCO put in a little extra effort by putting the “M” for Michigan on the top left pant leg which is a cool add on. I thought I wouldn’t, but I actually like the name plate on the front of the base. All it says is “Charles Woodson” and “Michigan 1997” but that’s all it needs. Simple, simple, simple. I consider this a professional bobble. Not too much spunk, but enough to know that this is an extreme ”exclusive” bobble that belongs in EVERYONE’S curio cabinet.

Sniper Rating: Any fan of college football or the NFL NEEDS to have this. Woodson is arguably one of the best cornerbacks/safety’s to ever play the game. There’s only one other Michigan bobble of Woodson (Rose Bowl Edition) so the exclusiveness of this one is in high demand. All signs point to this bobble of Charles Woodson in his Heisman pose as a sure fire 10.0.

Bobble of the Day “Brett Favre” 50,000 Yards

by Bobble Sniper | Nov 21, 2016 | Bobble of the Day

Bobble of the Day

Player: Brett Favre

Team: Green Bay Packers

Year: 2012

Manufacturer: Forever Collectibles

The first thing that stands out on this Favre bobble is the size. It’s a rare 18 incher and it’s huge. Only 100 of these were made and were locally sold in Milwaukee exclusively. I happened to score this from a dealer in Wisconsin and it didn’t come cheap.

On this bobble, Favre is celebrated by throwing for 50,000 yards which nowadays is no big deal as it seems like every Quarterback that has played for 10 plus years accomplishes this task. What makes this bobble so dope is the fact that the lettering of 50k yards is right in front and you can’t miss it. Since it’s so big it comes apart and you literally have to needle it into the small holes. I feel like I was putting together a fucking Lego set cause this thing is so big.

I love the stance FOCO made for Favre as it shows the gunslinger ready to throw a fucking seed to one of his wide outs. The uniform is very detailed with green and white stripes down the pant legs as well as the sleeves of the jersey.

Sniper Rating: Overall, for an 18 inch bobble this one is definitely cool, not only because it’s big, but it’s of Brett Favre, a Green Bay Packer legend. But seriously, if you have the room and you can get your hands on this one then do it. It’s a true crowd pleaser when you have your bro’s over and watching them grill it up and down gives me the goose bumps. Mr. Favre and his 50,000 yard bobble gets a 8.5.
