I got a Matt Kemp bobble head doll at the Dodgers game last night but I’m not that big of a fan of the Dodgers. It’s slightly less than mint condition, the box is slightly damaged, let me explain:
In the first inning, some drunk Cardinals fan kicked it while I had it placed on the ground under my seat. I don’t even know how he managed to do that; ninja skill I suppose. In the third inning, I set it in a puddle of beer on the condiments table while I was trying to put some ketchup on my Dodger Dog. In the fifth inning, I dropped it into the urinal; I thought I could balance it on the small ledge above the urinal but when I caught a guy checking out my other bobble head I got flustered and accidentally knocked it in. Don’t worry though, I rinsed it off in the sink. In the seventh inning, I kind of sat on it; I was so wrapped up in the signing of take me out to the ball game that I totally spaced that I had set it in my seat. When the game was over, we were on our way to the car (Okay, by this time I’m pretty trashed) and I stupidly left it on the top of the car; it of course fell off and my brother kinda sorta ran it over. Well, just the top half of the box anyway.
It could totally be mint condition again for anyone that likes a fixer upper and a challenge; a little tape, a little glue and I’m pretty sure the springy doodad needs to be replaced as well. If you are like me and can pant miniatures as kick butt as I can, (i specialize in dragons and unicorns – because they are my favorite animals); anyway it couldn’t hurt to repaint it.
I’ve gone ahead and posted a pic of what it should look like. so you won’t get confused about how it should look when you are done assembling it.
