2002 Play Makers Barry Bonds Bobblehead Figure Appraisal

2002 Play Makers Barry Bonds Bobblehead Figure

This is a 2002 Play Makers bobblehead featuring San Francisco Giants legend Barry Bonds, still housed in its original factory packaging. The figure depicts Bonds in a home cream-colored Giants uniform with orange and black detailing, holding a black baseball bat. He is wearing a black team cap. The figure is mounted on an octagonal white base which clearly displays 'BARRY BONDS' and 'SAN FRANCISCO GIANTS' in black block lettering. The bobblehead construction utilizes a spring-loaded neck mechanism typical of the era. The item includes an Upper Deck trading card visible in the side panel of the blister pack. The overall packaging stands approximately 8-10 inches tall and is titled '2002 MLB Edition' under the 'Play Makers' brand. Despite being in its original packaging, there are visible condition issues: the plastic blister is heavily yellowed and clouded with age, particularly on the left side, and the cardboard backing shows significant wear, creasing, and corner dinging. There appears to be some adhesive residue or staining on the front of the white base inside the plastic. The logos for MLB and the MLB Players Association are clearly visible at the bottom of the card back, dating this piece to the height of Bonds' career in the early 2000s.
