There's a bobblehead toy of Philadelphia 76ers star Ben Simmons. And it looks nothing like him.
As reported by Yahoo Sports, below is a screenshot of Simmons' bobblehead, which sells for $72.99 at eBay.

Do you see any similarities between the real Simmons and the toy? If you're having a hard time, below is a side-by-side comparison of the two, as posted by Ryan Disdier:

By the way, the toy was designed by Forever Collectibles. Now, can you point out what they got right and what they got wrong? From the looks of it, they got Simmons' hair right and the jersey, of course. Other than that, they might need to give Simmons and their future subjects a closer look.
Were they even looking at the Sixers star while crafting the bobblehead? Kevin Kinkead of Crossing Broad noticed that the designers might have been looking at a different player when they created the toy. Just remove the soul patch and the shave off the light goatee and you'll have basketball legend, Dominique Wilkins.
This is just one among the many badly-designed sports monuments/toys. Who can ever forget the bronze bust of Cristiano Ronaldo?
As of writing, the toy isn't available on eBay. Did someone actually purchase the “Ben Simmons” bobblehead?
