The Pittsburgh Pirates’ 50th-anniversary Charlie Brown bobblehead packaging design merges the team’s iconic color palette with the playful, nostalgic essence of the Peanuts universe. Utilizing the Pirates’ black and gold, which also happens to align with Charlie Brown’s signature look, the packaging keeps the design simple yet impactful. Clean lines and a minimalist layout allow the character to shine, while subtle comic book-style influences, like thick outlines and dynamic, almost sketch-like details, pay homage to the Peanuts comic strips.
