Bobbleheads and the Royals

Bobbleheads are among the most popular individualized gifts for friends and family. They are also a great way to celebrate sports, celebrities and movie stars. These customised dolls are available in multiple designs and colors, and can be made as per one’s requirements. My3dSelfie is an online store that offers a wide range of custom bobbleheads, including those based on different events. The prices vary from 50 dollars to 5000 dollars depending on the amount of customization and sculpting.

In a series of spots fit for late nite (if that were sometime in the 1980s), the Royals promoted their MLB exclusive bobblehead of fan-favorite shortstop Bobby Witt Jr. The ad campaign is a throwback to the era of baseball promotions and commercial breaks that dominated the TV landscape in the ’80s and ’90s.

The Royals are offering a handful of bobblehead giveaways this season. In addition to the Sports Illustrated magazine cover bobblehead, fans can get their hands on a George Brett and Bret Saberhagen bobblehead when purchasing a theme ticket for May 16 at Kauffman Stadium. Another limited-edition bobblehead, featuring a record-breaking Bobby Grich, will be given away on June 14.

Unlike the generic cherub-faced “nodders” of the 1950s and 1960s, modern bobbleheads are designed with the uniform and logo of specific teams. They have become collectors’ items, and are now a staple in many ballparks. The Royals have a strong history of introducing unique promotional items, and have been at the forefront of this trend in Major League Baseball.
