LOOK: 'Major League' Jobu bobblehead available for purchase
Pedro Cerrano's "Jobu" doll in "Major League" is one of the most iconic non-human creatures in baseball movie history. And now there's a bobblehead for purchase.
Major League gets my vote as the best baseball movie. There are lots of contenders and we have to suspend a bit of realism there, of course, but in terms of sheer entertainment value it is unmatched, for my money. Several one-liners stand the test of time and can be repeated ad nauseam by legions of baseball fans.
Well, for those fans, I have great news: There's a Jobu bobblehead. Look!

Yes, that's Pedro Cerrano's mate in superstition. The packaging, though, makes this a home run, much like Cerrano's clutch homer late in the one-game playoff against the Yankees.



So much to unpack there. How about where Cerrano was doing a cross with the snake in order to prevent himself from getting red-tagged? Or the rum in the locker? Or the faux-Topps baseball cards of all the Indians? This is incredible.
Now, surely you want to buy one. The good news is that you can. Here's a quick interview with one of the fine entrepreneurs, Scott Suciu.
Eye on Baseball: Obviously you got the idea from the Major League movie, but did you go through a process to make sure this hadn't been done before?
Scott: We were surprised to find that there was never any major production of the Jobu figure. We started this endeavor simply as fans. When we browsed forums, we found that we were not alone as a consumer that desired a figure. Through some research, we did find that there were some people that made limited numbers of figures that had a range in quality/authenticity. We also found that there definitely was never any officially licensed Jobu figures that were on the market. I'm positive that we were the first for this endeavor specifically. When we got the approval to move forward with the officially licensed figure, we wanted to make sure that it was as close to the original as we could possibly make it.
EOB: Will this be mass produced and available for the public? If so, when?
EOB: How much will it cost?
EOB: If there's a big success here, will it lead to other Major League bobbleheads?
EOB: Anything else we should tell the masses?
So there you have it. Head on over to their website for your own Jobu bobblehead. As far as I'm concerned, this is a must-have collector's item for anyone with a bobblehead collection and even decent taste.
Now, about those one-liners ... let them flow in the comments section. I'll get us started:
Are you tryin' to say Jesus Christ can't hit a curveball?
