"Badgey" Among Hallmark Ornaments This Year

[Joanna McCoy-Kirk]

It comes with "nice" and "naughty" versions of Badgey: https://www.hallmark.com/ornaments/...ks-badgey-ornaments-set-of-2-1999QXI7027.html

Right up there with the MU ornaments and the one of the salt vampire attempting to eat Kirk . . . on my list of ornaments not to get.

Indeed.

Star Trek ornaments seem to go between "Iconic" and "Absolutely horrifying if you don't know the context."

See also, Kirk beating Khan, Spock's death scene, etc.

That's pretty funny, I never thought about that before but it is kind of wacky some of the scene choices they've made for ornaments. Now, I'm wondering if they're doing it on purpose, maybe next year if we get a Ceti Eel or blowing up Remmick's head with a phaser we'll know for sure, or maybe everyone's favorite memory to commemorate on a tree, the TMP transporter accident.

First year in forever there isn't a Hallmark Trek ornament I want. Still salty they have never made the Enterprise B.

 

[marillion]

Yeah. You think they'd have all iterations of the Enterprise for us completists.

Or in the case of the salt vampire, even more horrifying if you do.

They should be putting the Enterprise G out this year, but I assume they have noticed the original Enterprise sells better than anything else, so any excuse to trot it back out.

 

[The Wormhole]

This year would be too soon for an Enterprise G wouldn't it? IIRC, this year's ornaments would have been through the approval process summer 2022.

I wouldn't mind a Peanut Hamper, to be honest. I would think an Exocomp would make a nice ornament.

I think the Badgey’s are nice. You lot are a right misery. Fair enough if you don’t like them, but they look like the character and for someone who likes LDS, they are a bit of fun. Something different.

I don't think anyone said they didn't like them.

Only opinions on the interesting assortment of Trek ornaments over the years.

You said they are horrifying.

I said...

...nowhere did I say these hit that end of the spectrum.

Just that Star Trek ornaments exist along those lines.

 

[Richard S. Ta]

Okay.

An Exocomp, sure, but maybe not Peanut Hamper. I still haven't forgiven her for breaking Rawda's heart.

I admit I'm sorely tempted by Badgey -- and Apollo's giant hand, which is amazing.

Personally, I'm more about cool character ornaments than the ships. I've got the Horta, Khan, Dr. McCoy, etc.

Our tree tends to be very eclectic, with tradition Xmas stuff, plus Trek, Frankenstein, Godzilla, Bigfoot, etc.
