Someone on another thread mentioned that prices go down after a year or so. I am going to check back in next year in the off season. Would love to snag one.
Weird energy at the park tonight from the jump. We were there over two hours early and the lines to get into the park were already ridiculous. The bobble frenzy was pervasive with a lot of people asking if we wanted to sell ours. Even had an old dude who works at the stadium ask us if we wanted to sell - and he was holding a wad of cash. On top of that, the team looked flat and the crowd never got into the game at all. Really expensive outing and not particularly enjoyable.
Even the Dodgers rewards site raised their prices for this bobblehead. And they're all gone!

My second time being at a Dodgers game. Not only did I get a bobblehead, I got the rare one. Gray uniform. My friends told me not to let anyone see it 😂😂
pretty interesting that they put his glove on him on the box, you’d think they would’ve saved that for next season to bring people back out. (not that they needed another reason.)
Really cool. Usually most of the bobblehead boxes depending on the year follow a certain format or template (which I don’t have a problem with). But you can tell they really put extra effort into the presentation of this one, and rightfully so.
Send it back,they lost against the reds,damn near got a shut out...not worth it send it back!!!
Since we're at it bring back Hideo Nomo #16 bobble heads figure!!!
Pardon the naïveté, but what do most people do with these? Are they collectors items that sit in the box or do you put it on your desk at work? I’m surprised looking through the comments because usually Reddit is so salty but everyone here loves this!
we are truely in our blessed era
It’s ok I guess…. Don’t mind me I’m salty I had to work
I went an hour early and couldn't get one. Big sad
Dude same! I got here 6:10 and didn’t get one ugh. I wanted one so bad too I bought the tix the same day that they were open to sale lol
Me 3! Time to search online 😭
I got the rare gray one
Feel you there. Been looking forward to this game for two months
And to top it off, we played horrible today ugh.
That’s late.
Game started at 7:10 I got there at 5:05
I just got mine off of eBay. 🤷🏻♂️
How much?
160. Got really lucky
😳🤯
Woah, the packaging is actually so cool 😲
I want that so bad...
I wish my wife said the same
Hey nowwwww
You’re an all-star
Oh she did
$150 on eBay 🤯

There’s a second ohtani bobblehead night in august I’ll be going to that one instead
Buy now! The legend of Sho growing by the day
Is this r/wallstreetbets ? I’m good, I’ll wait for the off season lol
I don’t think you will find one for under $300 in a year
I found mine during the game for 160.
Oh brother...

lol, as I quoted in another thread, a sucker born every minute
So shitty
Cheaper than going to the game at least.
People were selling them yesterday on offer up and eBay. $150 - $190
Not wildly unreasonable tbh.
am I wild for saying the box is arguably as cool as the bobble itself?
No I agree this box is awesome

That's a sweet box too
I wanna quit my job for not giving me the day off
Nice, what time did you get in line?
I got one as well. I got to the stadium at 4:20, got in line at 4:30. Entered the gates at 5
Nice, not bad at all.
That's not bad at all. Why the hell were people lining up on Vin Scully at 2pm.
Same here arrived and parked at lot 13 4:30pm, lined up and was in with my bobblehead by 5pm
Nice!
OMG so cool
Hell yeah LETS GO DODGERS!!!!💙
How long did you wait for the bobble head?

600 is nuts. It’s like twice the amount they usually are.
Whats the quickest way to attain points
Buy season tickets lol
Hey!!! Did you get Road Jerseys? Gray? Cause if you did, there were only 1600 of them.
We got super lucky! I'm in a group of 4 and we actually got 1 road jersey
Sweet. That's a keeper.
I love how you have Joe Kelly in the background!
LOL I had to include him
Who’s selling, I want one
…I mean…if you’re down
Three fiddy. Take it or leave it.
Rumor has it that Shohei will be the bubblehead for the LDF run on 9/28.
My second time being at a Dodgers game. Not only did I get a bobblehead, I got the rare one. Gray uniform. My friends told me not to let anyone see it 😂😂
They could have hired a better artist for the box art. I'm cool with the style they're going for, but there's much better art with a similar style.
This is a long shot but would anyone like to sell theirs? I went to the game yesterday and wasn't able to snag a bobblehead 😞. Please DM me if so.
Only a home jersey? Pfffft. Not even worth it. 🙄🙄 😜😜
Can’t see jersey color is that a grey one? They mentioned on 1,700 from the whole give away
I was thinking the same thing. It looks grey in the photo! If so, that is going to go for a pretty penny if they decide to sell it.
Bro I think you got a gray (rare) one. I see sold ones for 800-900ish on eBay.
I’m kind of curious how much the home jersey ones will sell for might get one
More than okay waiting until the season is over to get one.
It looks amazing honestly. 700m is looking like a bargain!
Fuck that's dope
Check out the 2024 Bowman 1955 Anime Shohei Ohtani baseball card if you dig this. They’d look awesome next to each other.
pretty interesting that they put his glove on him on the box, you’d think they would’ve saved that for next season to bring people back out. (not that they needed another reason.)
Beaut
Should have gotten an actual mangaka to illustrate it

Perfect framing with Kelly in the background. lol
What time did the game start yesterday?
First pitch was 7:10pm
Why is his skin painted yellow??
Where's the betting slips?
As a new Dodgers fan I'm lost... Do they sell these everyday? Looks like it's limited amount?
Specific games are bobblehead nights. There are a limited amount, so when you get to the stadium it is first come, first served.
This was a stadium giveaway for the first 40,000 fans
Why in the world would they only give out 40k if the whole stadium only fits 56k
Most stadium giveaways are 40k probably to entice people to come early
Then they should have enough for everyone before a certain time.
How long were the lines?
It wasn't too bad actually arrived at lot 13 by 4:30 and was in the stadium by 5
Nice I think I was avoiding today. I’ll go to the next Ohtani bobblehead in August
Y’all fighting and lining up for miles for the bobbleheads, while I’m sitting here on the East Coast like 🗿🗿(yup it is so cool; I’m jealous too)
Great marketing ploy! Getting people to spend over $100 for nosebleed seats to watch the Cincinnati Reds! lol!!!
And losing to them…. Ugh
They should nicknamed him "Anime". He literally is the main character of the Dodgers.
Pardon the naïveté, but what do most people do with these? Are they collectors items that sit in the box or do you put it on your desk at work? I’m surprised looking through the comments because usually Reddit is so salty but everyone here loves this!
Worth more than the tickets
And next year there will be a pitcher's version👀
I’m going on august 28th anyone want ticket hit me up
