First Rich Eisen needs to apologize to Shohei for his misreporting about the Ippei gambling scandal!

[@itsukiwakai]

Frankly I don't give a damn about Ippei, I'd be glad if we don't have to talk about him anymore.

[@leehojunlee7425]

Agree

[@SuperCatacata]

I still remember Rich Eisen showing off how Ohtani took the time to take a picture with his kid at that NFL game last year. What kind of guy has that happen and then completely flips the script like that during the scandal drama? Sad to see. You jumped the gun on the Ohtani story to get clicks, Rich. Be better.

[@ricardolagunas6420]

Bought one yesterday. Forsure hurt when I paid for it but I couldn’t make it to the game so I had to buy it after market

[@kpreap]

SMH dodgers are releasing more later this season.

[@n00btype]

The away version only has 1,700 made, out of the 40k, that's why it's being flipped for higher price. Saw one sold for 1,200.

[@DaneOrschlovsky]

Would you pay that much for a cheap piece of plastic?

[@n00btype]

@@DaneOrschlovsky Well first of all it's not plastic, but no i wouldn't and i'm a baseball card collector so i do pay that much money for paper lol. I will not pay that much for a bobblehead because they can easily be duplicated. In couple you will see bunch fake ones being sold on ebay and there is no way to tell one apart from another.

[@DaneOrschlovsky]

@@n00btype ceramic? Guess the plastic fakes are easy to tell 🤣 It truly is astounding what we humans place value on, though. Whether sports or Pokemon cards, Banksy, crypto, cars, shoes, etc. The fact that people fought over Tickle-Me-Elmo dolls back in the day is nuts. Man, I gotta find that box full of cards in the attic....

[@n00btype]

@@DaneOrschlovsky Not sure, maybe clay? People just get caught in the hype and some folks still not out of covid's get rich schemes. Bobbleheads are never high-value collectibles unless signed by the player, they just end up in thrifty stores. I remember tickle-me-elmo lol.

[@nones100]

First they're already having a second Ohtani bobblehead day. Second, the dodgers have always had a 40k limit (having 53k is crazy) because they more often than not have left over stuff it's not that difficult to understand

Maybe next Shohei bobble head in August, they can make 53K, what ever gets left over (if it does) they can sell it for $15 at the Dodgers store…Will sell out w no problem, no loss producing 53K

[@nones100]

@mirikaku5811 why would they? The dodgers have NEVER sold left overs in the stores it takes away from the specialty of getting the item as a fan " why would I go to the game when the store well sell it later" it's illogical

[@campingking9784]

40k is actually quite generous. Your Yankees only give away 18k. Just saying.

[@n00btype]

Give it a full season the price of those bobblehead will be down to 50-100. Historically bobblehead don't appreciate in value because so many are made and easily duplicated. That is, you will find copies of this on Chinese market place soon and there will be no way of telling real one from the knockoffs.

[@DaneOrschlovsky]

Anyone who pays for a bobblehead beyond the price of admission is an absolute buffoon.

[@Warbler97]

40,000 bobbleheads and they're acting like the Dodgers made a huge mistake by not having even more? Cleveland Guardians have 12,500 total to give away at a game today. I'm shocked that only ~13,000 people at the Dodgers game missed out.

[@mirikaku5811]

It’s Shohei Ohtani! And it’s the fun for kids + adult kids) to go to an event and get a freebie. It’s the emotions and memories that gives a thing the sentimental value

[@Harcorwrestler]

Guys do your research. There is another Shohei bobblehead night. It’s in August.

[@Kathy-22]

Me too

[@surfwriter8461]

The Ohtani factor is huge, and now they've declared one day a year a Shohei Ohtani day in the city of LA--as long as he continues to play in LA. But the people who are trying to cash it with exorbitant prices on the free bobblehead they received are shameful. The only way I can sympathize is if it's someone who is genuinely in financial distress and will benefit from the big cash return. But this was supposed to be a special gift to fans, not a way to scalp the memento. And if half of those end up in a landfill, that would really make me sick. Probably not the Ohtani ones but those for other Dodgers players that they keep giving out. Too much non-recyclable crap out there already.

Wish i had just one day off to sit there for how long? Can i ask where all of these people work? Because its so damn expensive HOW?!?

[@AbandonedRaven]

As someone who has bought and resold a lot (mostly fashion related), I always find it interesting how people react to the prices people pay; like with the Stanley cup hype. It’s always an unknown for certain “new” items to know how much someone would actually pay. If you’re one of the first and you have enough rep, I’ve seen people sell items waaaaay more than you’re typical inflated prices, so listing for 5,000 is excessive, but I wouldn’t be surprised if someone spent 1,000 in the midst of the hype/frustration. People like having “exclusive” items, and I typically sell with a best offer; I don’t trust bidding at all.

Oh cmon shut up your kids got to meet Ohtani should every kid in America get that chance?. There is a second bobblehead night this year, journalism research at its finest here. There has always been a 40k number on bobbleheads for as long as I can remember. And the grey away jersey variant bobbleheads were limited to 1700 so they become more rare hence the price.

I want to apologize to you, Rich Eisen. In the past, I felt unpleasant about how you continued to pursue the truth in the Ohtani incident. However, since then, I have missed hearing you talk about Ohtani and MLB. I wanted to hear your MLB discussions. I am very grateful that you have resumed. Thank you.

[@333XD]

Why would you apologize to Eisen? He was the one made Ohtani sounds like a liar and committing the crime. Not only he doesn't apologize, he acting like a victim of getting targeted by " Ohtani stans" for no reason. Ridiculing the fans. Then continues to make videos about Ohtani for more view counts.
