Shohei Ohtani MVP Edition
The Shohei Ohtani MVP Bobblehead is very popular, and for good reason. This unique bobblehead shows Ohtani in two positions – one side ready to pitch and the other ready to hit. It’s like having two bobbleheads in one!
But here’s the catch: only the first 20,000 fans on July 19 will get this special item. It’s rare, so make sure you arrive early!
Ice Cube West Coast Classic Bobblehead
We’re making history with the Ice Cube West Coast Classic Bobblehead. He’s the first musician to be featured in a Dodger bobblehead! This isn’t just any figurine; it has style. The bobblehead has removable sunglasses so that you can change Ice Cube’s look. It’s super cool!
