Celebrate The All-Star Game With A New York Mets Bobble on Parade

With the MLB All-Star game set to be played on July 11^th, FOCO has just released their annual Bobbles on Parade collection featuring a commemorative All-Star themed bobblehead from all 30 MLB teams. The Bobbles on Parade program started back in 2003 in the city of Chicago. Major League Baseball, the Chicago White Sox, and Forever Collectibles partnered to create 34 life-sized bobbleheads to promote the All-Star Game, which was held at U. S. Cellular Field on July 15, 2003. From then on, FOCO (Forever Collectibles) has launched a collection each year themed around the All-Star Game, but it wasn’t until a few years ago they began offering these highly sought out collectibles directly to collectors and fans alike.

Some of the past year’s iterations have been themed around the cities the All-Star Game has been played in. In 2009 the game was held in St. Louis so FOCO created an “Arches on Parade” program to reflect the famous arches of St. Louis. Similarly, in 2014 Bobbles on Parade became “Peanuts on Parade” to honor the creator of the Peanuts comics Charles Schulz, who grew up in Minneapolis, which is where the 2014 All-Star game was played. When the All-Star game came to Citi Field in 2013 FOCO fittingly created “Apples on Parade.”

With the 2023 MLB All-Star game in Seattle, this year’s collection features the iconic Space Needle alongside the team-themed bobbleheads. Like all FOCO bobbleheads, each one is handcrafted, and hand painted, so no two are exactly the same. Each retail for $70 and the bobbleheads stand at approximately 7 ins tall, making these the ideal addition to any collection at home, or any desk at work or school.

Each one is officially licensed by Major League Baseball and are individually numbered out of a limited quantity.  Like all of FOCO’s bobbleheads, they are handcrafted, and hand painted, so no two are exactly the same. Preorder a Bobbles on Parade from the Mets or another team here!
