Shohei Ohtani fan's celebrate getting the baseball star's coveted bobble head

Somewhere amongst the thousands of bobble heads, which will feature Shohei Ohtani and his beloved pup Decoy, will be at least one entirely gold collectible. Jeff Nguyen reports.

[@davidh7832]

I have some of the bobbleheads too, and I don’t think I would sell them. They are memories of his career and my time in LA too

[@yu_sho3455]

Shohei ohtani the Goat of baseball 🐐

[@JapanSuperiorWarrior]

That’s an understatement. He’s the GOAT of all sports in the history of the world.

[@stickyrice2141]

Keep it for 30 - 50 years, that will be worth million, hopefully lol

[@down2earthz]

Youre probably right 😊

[@down2earthz]

Im in Texas wish i could have one of Ohtani bobblehead.

[@MotocrossGuru-zf8pk]

everybody would accept $17,000+

[@Jry088]

Already on Ebay selling over 1K

[@sinep8008]

They are not selling for 20grand but I think it's still crazy that the gold one is selling for 1.2 to 1.3k. Those are sold comps not listed comps, and the normal one is going for around $200.

[@watchtonystube]

These were up on eBay for about $200 before the day was over 😂

[@happyboss555]

Honestly, the bobble head looks like the coach.

Go dodgers

He had a bad game tonight. I believe he was the only starter not to get a hit. At least they won.

[@mikey90504]

How about Friday and Saturday night games? Any homers?

[@giftedgreen2152]

Who cares? He doesn’t speak English. He makes Jokic look marketable.

[@giftedgreen2152]

@@davidh7832 it’s like if Michael Jordan only spoke Chinese.

[@MotocrossGuru-zf8pk]

at least they got a free $20,000 and you dont. get back to the french fry machine gifted

[@mstone195]

So which English speaking MLB players are attracting this long of a line for their bobble head again?

[@giftedgreen2152]

@@mstone195 it’s probably all Asians.

[@Modernaire]

What’s the hype around the Ohtani? Has he achieved like a World Series or some kind of incredible record? Or is it all just high and obsessive fan premature praise craze? I don’t get I don’t understand it. Anyone explain to me. I’m open-minded.

[@yu_sho3455]

Do some reasearch maybe you will know why 😂

[@henrixii1614]

The reality is hundreds of thousands of people think he is remarkable. You don't need to ask why because it is what it is...

[@Modernaire]

@@henrixii1614 But really... WHY?

[@Modernaire]

@@yu_sho3455 😄😄NO😐. I have a legitimate fear my IQ will go down a few notches. YOu obsessive fans tell me why.

[@adinugroho382]

Im from Indonesia. We dont have any baseball league even didnt know baseball exist before😅.but in 2021 i accidentally discover about ohtanj through my yt recommendation. And since then im hooked to him. I didnt know how to explain but something about him different. I know many great players many legends but he is different. He has that aura. I watched all his angels game. Even wbc im rooting for him. Even bought his merch ship across the globe. I think ohtani bring many ppl to watch mlb. Even from countries who didn't think baseball its a thing. I watch many uk fans acknowledge him in wbc and other europe countries too. Even china and s korea who r the frenemies of japan like this guy too I think he is interesting person. Knowing how hard and how obsessed him to baseball and how he carry him self. I like his work ethics. And u know sometimes when u burn out and didnt have any motivation at all, watching someone who work hard and determined to their dream, make u want to work hard as them too

[@keizomatsuzaki]

ohtani is no good as you see how he swings his bat changing every time no consistent swing and 28sec/ft slow baserunning speed comparing to others but, he will be a great idol player with helps of MLB(corporate sponsors) and Japanese markets (one simple minded-no divergence) that is, his bobble day and weekends (japan time) strikeouts weekdays since Japanese back to obsessive working mind so postseason ohtani may be out of lineups since all the clubs seriously fighting to win the pennant

[@jimmykim4555]

No one’s going to pay $20k for it 😅

[@Jry088]

I've seen bids well over $1300 on ebay. Considering it was free with a ticket it's a damn good payday.

[@aoh4905]

If Pokemon cards can go to millions it's possible 15 years from now. But I think Dodgers will keep making those each year

[@jimmykim4555]

@@Jry088 no one will buy it for $1300 either lol 😂
