Joel Embiid has been described as a rare talent during a 76ers career that has included four consecutive All-Star berths. As it turns out, a bobblehead of the Sixers center is also going to be rare.

FOCO, a manufacturer and e-commerce retailer of sports and entertainment merchandise, is releasing a Joel Embiid Philadelphia 76ers City Jersey bobblehead. The item will be offered live on FOCO.com for preorders beginning at 11 a.m. Friday.

The bobblehead costs $50. Marketing coordinator Anthony Davino said that sales will be limited to 221 pieces and that orders will be shipped to customers in August.

Every NBA team will eventually have one player offered in this series. Davino says Boston’s Jayson Tatum, Charlotte’s LaMelo Ball, and San Antonio’s DeMar DeRozan are among the players whose bobbleheads have been offered.
