2019 Cincinnati Reds Themed Bobbleheads

For the past few years, the Cincinnati Reds have been teaming up with various companies to produce special themed giveaway items that are exclusive to certain ticket packages. Some of these items are bobbleheads and have featured characters from Star Wars, Peanuts, and Marvel among others. So who will the Redlegs team up with this season and what unique bobbleheads will be distributed? Let's take a look.

The first themed bobblehead of 2019 is a Game of Thrones Queen Rosie bobblehead. Last year the Reds and Game of Thrones gave out a King Redlegs bobblehead, and it was a very good looking bobble. The Queen Rosie bobble looks just as good and will make a fine addition to anybody's bobblehead collection. This will be given out during the 5/15 game against the Chicago Cubs.

The next themed bobblehead is of Woodstock. He is the little yellow bird from the Peanuts comic strip and cartoon. The previous years have seen the Reds give out bobbleheads of Charlie Brown and Snoopy. This bobble will be given out on the 5/19 game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

It wouldn't be baseball season without a Star Wars themed giveaway, and the Reds are teaming up with the juggernaut movie franchise on 5/31 against the Washington Nationals when they give out a bobblehead of Darth Vader. The bobblehead features Vader standing on a Reds baseball and continues the partnership that Star Wars and the Redlegs have had for the last few years.

The fourth themed bobblehead giveaway of the year is the one I am looking forward to the most. For the third straight year, the Reds and Marvel are teaming up to distribute a bobblehead with the 2019 season featuring a Black Panther bobble. This will be the fourth Marvel bobblehead the Reds have given to fans with the previous three being Rocket Raccoon, Iron Man, and Captain America. Im a big super hero fan and have all three in my collection, and I will definitely be getting tickets for this game. It will take place on 6/14 when the Texas Rangers come to town.

The fifth bobble is of All-Star-Sam, the bald eagle. This is a joint promotion bobblehead between the Reds and the Cincinnati Zoo. Last year's zoo themed bobblehead was of Fiona the hippo. This will be given out during the 6/18 game against the Houston Astros.

The next themed bobblehead game is on 7/19 when the Redlegs take on the St. Louis Cardinals and ties in Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville. In honor of the 30th anniversary of "Off to See the Lizard," this bobblehead will be of the Lizard.

The last themed bobblehead the Reds will give out in 2019 will be in conjunction with the Grateful Dead. Members of Reds Country who are also Deadheads will get a kick out of this bobblehead as it will be of the Dancing Bear. This will be given out on 8/16 when the Reds host the Cardinals.

Those are the themed ticket package bobbleheads the Reds will give out during the 2019 season. Ranging from Star Wars to the Zoo, there is sure to be a bobblehead that will capture the interest of every Reds fan. I'm looking forward to the Black Panther bobblehead the most. More information on these bobbleheads can be found the Cincinnati Reds website.

Cincinnati Reds Special Ticket Package Bobbbleheads 2017

The Cincinnati Reds are no strangers to bobblehead giveaways and special ticket packages. The past few years have seen the team release a special Star Wars themed ticket package that included a Star Wars Cincinnati Reds themed bobblehead exclusive to the ticket package. Apparently the promotion was popular enough to warrant the team to expand the promotion to not just Star Wars. The ticket packages can cost anywhere from $20 to $60 depending on the promotion and seating. They will be good for one game during a select home series and include an exclusive ticket package item. In this post, I will discuss the various special ticket package bobbleheads the Reds plan to give out during the 2017 season.

First up for 2017 is a Rocket the Raccoon bobblehead. Rocket is one of the main characters from the “Guardians of the Galaxy” series which has recently exploded in popularity thanks to the blockbuster Marvel film from a few years ago. The bobblehead looks really good and features Rocket standing on a baseball that has both the Marvel logo and the Reds logo on it. This nodder will be given out during the April 21-23 home series against the Chicago Cubs.

Second is the Star Wars ticket package bobblehead. This package will be good for either the May 5 or May 6 game against the San Francisco Giants and will feature a Storm Trooper bobblehead. Like Rocket, the Storm Trooper is standing on a baseball and has both the Star Wars logo and the Cincinnati Reds logo on it. This is the third Star Wars ticket package bobblehead the Reds have given out to fans. They have previously given away nodders of R2-D2 and Yoda.

The third bobblehead is of the Marvel metallic mega hero known as Iron Man. This bobble will be given away during the June 2-4 weekend series against the Atlanta Braves and coincides with both a standard bobblehead giveaway on Saturday as well as a Cincinnati Reds Hall of Fame and Museum bobblehead giveaway weekend. If you play your cards right, you could go to the Saturday game and walk away with three bobbleheads. The nodder features Iron Man standing on a flat circular base. The base has the Marvel logo on the side and baseball stitching and the Reds logo on the top.

Fourth is a Jimmy Buffett Margaritaville bobblehead that will be given out on July 14 when the Washington Nationals come to town. The nodder is of a sunglasses wearing parrot in a Cincinnati Reds road jersey while standing on a baseball that says “Fins Up” and sports the Reds logo. This game is also a Friday Night Fireworks game and will feature a fireworks show set to the music of Jimmy Buffett.

Fifth is a special Charlie Brown Cincinnati Reds bobblehead that celebrates the 50^th anniversary of the “You’re a Good Man, Charlie Brown” musical. It will be given out during the July 21-23 series against the Miami Marlins. The bobblehead is of Charlie Brown wearing a Reds hat and Reds version of his trademark shirt. He is also holding a bat and a baseball, and the base appears to be home plate that says “50^th Anniversary” and “You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown.”

The last special ticket package bobblehead of the year is of Elvis Presley. This bobblehead will be given out during the August 4 and 5 games against the St. Louis Cardinals. The nodder showcases Elvis in a white outfit while holding a microphone and standing on a black circular base. The Reds logo is on the top of the base and his name is featured in gold letters on the side.

In conclusion, the special ticket package bobbleheads are very gimmicky but are also unique pieces of Reds memorabilia. I am and have always been a huge super hero fan and will be going to get both the Rocket the Raccoon bobblehead and the Iron Man bobblehead. Other special ticket package giveaways include an FC Cincinnati scarf, a Grateful Dead statue, an Oktoberfest mug, and a replica 1975 Cincinnati Reds World Series Championship ring. In addition to the Marvel bobbleheads, I will also be going to the Saturday 1975 replica ring game which I believe is also the same day as a standard bobblehead game.
