Key Points

The Yankees are giving away a Rumi bobblehead in pinstripes to the first 18,000 fans on August 11
Single-game tickets start at $41 and are on sale now for the Yankees vs Mariners matchup
MLB and Netflix announced KPop Demon Hunters Nights at stadiums nationwide through September

KPop Demon Hunters just found its next venue, and it’s not a stadium tour or a pop-up shop. It’s Yankee Stadium. The Honmoon is apparently strong enough to cover both demon containment and the American League East, because MLB and Netflix just dropped a full slate of crossover nights running deep into September, and the bobblehead leading the pack is about as limited as these promos get.

Yankees K-Pop Demon Hunters Rumi Bobbleheads

On August 11, the Yankees host the Mariners for a KPop Demon Hunters Night, and the first 18,000 fans through the gates walk away with a Rumi bobblehead dressed in Yankees pinstripes. Eighteen thousand is a tight number for this franchise.

Yankee Stadium averages somewhere around 40,000 fans a game, which means well under half the building gets one even on a packed night. Tickets are on sale now through MLB starting at $41.

KPop Demon Hunters merch has held up well since the film became Netflix’s most-watched title ever, and the character-specific bobblehead format tends to travel better with collectors than generic team giveaways.

Pair that with a quantity this low at a stadium this large, and you’ve got the ingredients for a real flip. We’d put this one in the $100 to $150 range on eBay once the dust settles after the game, with the usual caveat that early postgame listings always run hotter than the market that settles in over the following weeks.

MLB K-Pop Demon Hunters Exclusive Jerseys

Three other teams are doing premium jersey giveaways instead of gate bobbleheads, and the access model is completely different. The Mariners hand out HUNTR/X or Derpy & Sussie Bird jerseys on September 5 against the Athletics.

The Rangers follow on September 1 with a Saja Boys jersey for their game against the Athletics. The Red Sox go the furthest on September 7 versus the Angels, offering HUNTR/X or Saja Boys jerseys in glow-in-the-dark versions, randomly distributed between the two designs.

These are all special ticket packages, not first-come gate giveaways, which changes the math for resellers. You’re not racing 40,000 people to the gate, but you are paying more upfront, and you’re locked into whichever design you’re handed in the Red Sox’s case. That’s a real risk if you’re hoping to land a specific look. The tradeoff is guaranteed access: buy the ticket package and the jersey is yours, no gate-time gymnastics required.

Other K-Pop Demon Hunters Baseball Promos

The Padres have confirmed a second bobblehead giveaway for September 19 against the Marlins, though the design hasn’t been revealed yet. The teaser image shows a silhouette of all three lead characters together, so there’s a real chance this turns into a triple bobblehead rather than a single figure.

The Mets also have a KPop Demon Hunters night locked in for August 15 against the Nationals, but no giveaway details have surfaced yet. We’ll update once the team announces what fans actually walk away with.
