We are thrilled -- and we do mean thrilled -- to have obtained this super-nice 1999 MLB (yes, it's an MLB, not MiLB copyright) "boy" bobbleheads by Twins
'47 Brand (formerly known as Enterprise) produced this Mobile BayBears 1999 Minor League Bobblehead. The team was affiliated with the San Diego Padres at the time, but later became affiliated with other MLB teams before closing in 2019. Despite a small hair chip, this bobblehead is still in fantastic condition. For sure, the box shows some wear, with some spots/defects on the red box. If box condition is important to you, please review the photos before purchasing. This collectible was made in China.
ABOUT BOBBLEHEAD PHOTOS ON THIS SITE: We offer different types of bobbleheads on this site:
"USED" bobbleheads which have been opened, displayed, repackaged, etc. All photos for those bobbleheads are unique to the bobblehead you are looking at; we don't use "stock" photos as those can be misleading and/or dishonest.
"NOS (New Old Stock)" bobbleheads are those we obtained in which the contents are New Old Stock, but the box/packaging may exhibit some wear from storage/handling/etc. These, too, have unique photos for reasons cited in the paragraph above, and may also contain minor blemishes.
It is also important that you read and be aware of the following:
Older Twins bobbleheads are very susceptible to chipping and/or flaking; a primary cause of this is because over time the plastic shell the bobblehead is packaged in for protection will -- ironically -- become brittle and can contribute to friction-related chipping/flaking issues, rather than protect the bobblehead as intended. In the Twins bobblehead world, this type of imperfection is not uncommon and is not considered a detriment to the value of the product.
While the logical solution would seem to be simply removing the shell and wrapping the bobblehead in bubble plastic or similar protection, it then becomes an issue for collectors who insist the bobblehead be delivered as originally packaged. We have tried to create a "best of both worlds" scenario by adding thin pieces of Styrofoam to the friction points of the packaging of SELECT bobbleheads. While we are certain it helps, we cannot be 100% certain that issues had not already started with the bobble before the addition of thin Styrofoam protection and may present themselves during shipment. Nor can we be certain that all potential chipping/flaking areas have been addressed.
Because of this possibility -- as well as questionable claims by some customers in the past -- all sales of all bobbleheads are "AS IS" and the customer acknowledges and understands damage is possible during shipment. There will be no returns, exchanges, refunds, or anything else related to any bobblehead damage or degradation. The customer understands and agrees that ALL SALES ARE FINAL with any bobbleheads purchased from this site. It's the only way we can continue to offer bobbleheads for sale from this site.
