FOCO released a new Los Angeles Dodgers bobblehead that is a dual version of friends, teammates and Japanese natives Shohei Ohtani and Yoshinobu Yamamoto.
The “It’s Sho-Yo Time Dual Bobblehead” is a limited release and won’t be restocked once quantities sell out. Each bobblehead is individually numbered out of 360.
The bobblehead depicts Ohtani and Yamamoto both dressed in the home white Dodgers uniform and standing back-to-back atop at thematic base.

Also on the base are both player names and text of “It’s Sho-Yo Time!” along the front. The bobblehead stands approximately eight inches tall.
It’s the second bobblehead of Ohtani and Yamamoto combined together for a limited-edition release. FOCO previously did so for the Seoul Series, and that version quickly sold out.
Also no longer available is a Japan-themed bobblehead of Ohtani, Yamamoto and Ichiro Suzuki.
Ohtani and Yamamoto were part of a wildly successful offseason that saw the Dodgers commit to more than $1 billion in salary. They both have been instrumental for the team so far this year, with Yamamoto rebounding after struggling in his MLB debut.
Dodgers bobbleheads by FOCO
Various Dodgers bobbleheads are available for purchase from FOCO, including individual versions of Ohtani and Yamamoto.
For Ohtani, the bobblehead is to commemorate breaking the MLB record of most home runs hit by a Japanese-born player. The record previously belonged to Hideki Matsui, who Ohtani looked up to as a mentor.
Yamamoto’s bobblehead is for his first career win, which came earlier this month against the Chicago Cubs.
The Dodgers also are planning Ohtani and Yamamoto bobblehead giveaways at Dodger Stadium this season.
