New Addition - Brian Dozier Bobblehead

I didn't know about this bobblehead until after I saw a picture of it post giveaway game.  The Bethesda Big Train is a collegiate summer baseball team that pulls players from local colleges.  The Big Train has done bobbles in the past, but obviously a Dozier bobblehead grabbed my attention.  He played on the team in 2006!  This is a really rare bobblehead too - only 250 were produced and given away!  Dozier has been on quite a streak the last month, so I wanted to post this while he was hot...even tho the Twins are struggling.

Fairborne - Minnesota State Fair Mascot!!

I got lucky on this one.  I had never seen this bobblehead before, but picked it up in a lot I purchased. I dug quite a bit on this one and learned little.  Read about the State Fair and it's mascots here! Fairborne is the nephew of the original MN State Fair mascot, Fairchild. This bobblehead idea was "born" in 2006 I believe and I think it was either sold or was some type of giveaway at the fair in 2007 or 2008. There aren't many around, I know that as this is the only one I've ever seen and even when digging I couldn't find more!
