Sneak Peek - Badlands Big Sticks Mascot - Teddy

Earlier this year I had heard about a couple Expedition League teams that were possibly going to run bobblehead promotions at their games this summer.  The league was formed in 2017 and began their inaugural season this past May!  This is the first peek at the Badlands Big Sticks Mascot - Teddy!  The bobblehead night is Friday July 27th, grab your tickets here!! 

The Badlands Big Sticks are located in Dickinson, North Dakota and play their games at Astoria Field.  Without further ado, check out this awesome bobblehead!

This startup collegiate summer baseball league has been a huge success and I for one, hope they stick around for a long time and keep doing bobbleheads!!  The detail on this bobble is great and I'm sure plenty people in the area will love them! 

New Addition - TC Bear 2010 Edition

Here's one of my latest new additions.  TC Bear.  This is a Target Field exclusive.  It was sold at the Majestic team store during during the inaugural season of Target Field in 2010.  Definitely the hardest TC Bear bobblehead to find.  The team usually has a variety of Twins bobbles available for purchase and in 2010 they did a set of 3 of them.  Justin Morneau and Joe Mauer also had bobbles that year.  Their bases are all the same too which is why I wanted the set, plus the rarity adds to it!

New Addition - Target Field Replica

I've been hunting for this stadium replica for quite a while.  I've known about it for a long time but have only seen it in pictures.  I thought I was possibly going to acquire it through a friend of a friend who has connections with the Twins, but the Twins employee who owned it couldn't part with it.  This is not the SGA version.  You'll notice 2 main differences, the first is on the outside base - it says "Target Field Inaugural Season 2010" in gold and the second difference is on the bottom where its numbered out of 1122.  There is 1 more difference, but hard to tell through pictures, it's actually significantly bigger than the SGA replica.  The story behind this is that the Twins had these made and gave them to Twins employees during the 2010 season.   

Joe Mauer Target Field Exclusive Bobblehead

I had seen this bobblehead before...a while ago, its a Forever Collectibles bobblehead, which if you are an avid reader of mine...you'll know I'm not a huge fan of FC bobbles.  I believe (and readers, correct me if I'm wrong) this Joe Mauer bobblehead was sold at Target Field in 2010.  I've asked people at the team store and other Twins officials and nobody really knows anything about it.  But using my wonderful Jackson Minnesota math education, I'm putting 2 and 2 together and getting 4. Usually Forever Collectible bobbleheads are retail bobbles.  The fact that the base reads "Inaugural Season 2010 Target Field" leads me to believe that its certainly a Target Field exclusive or perhaps a Target (store) exclusive to MN.  Feel free to reply to the post with more information if you have it!
