Bobbleheads are never an easy thing to create. Very seldom do we see a bobblehead that actually looks like the person it’s intended to resemble. But this? This is a goddamn dumpster fire for the ages.

In what world does this even remotely look like the great Kobe Bryant?

Holy crap, this looks more like a cliche evening news broadcaster than it does Kobe Bryant. To call this a colossal failure would be a pretty healthy understatement.
First of all, Kobe has NEVER smiled so brightly. Secondly, said smile is beyond creepy. And in my final statement, I’m gonna go as far as to say that this might look more like Shawn Bradley than it does the Black Mamba.
Having said all of that, these things will be selling for thousands of dollars on eBay, with people happily giving up most of their savings to secure one.
