A 50th Anniversary Maxine Star Trek Ornament sold yesterday for only $518.52. The last two Maxine ornaments sold on eBay went for over $2,000.
Somehow this auction eluded me and had Michael S. not notified me I would never have known about it. Thank you for the heads up!

Captain’s log, stardate 12/19/91:
A tourist from Detroit has skipped New York City’s Christmas sites to comb Hallmark stores in Manhattan looking for it.
One store at Roosevelt Field Shopping Center in Nassau County has 150 people on a waiting list crossing their fingers hoping to get it.
And 200 people a day are calling the consumer affairs office of Hallmark Cards Inc. in Kansas City screaming for it.
This object of desire is a $20 replica of the Starship Enterprise from “Star Trek” with blinking red and green lights. It is Hallmark’s most successful Christmas ornament since they launched the Hallmark Keepsake Magic Christmas Ornaments line in 1973.
At a time when it seems like nothing is selling, there doesn’t seem to be a store anywhere where the Starship hasn’t sold out.
If you didn’t buy the 5-inch-long Enterprise when it first hit area stores in July, or put your name on a waiting list along with legions of other wishful owners, there’s little hope you can get it
“This is the most demand we have ever had for a single ornament? Helgager, spokeswoman for Hallmark cards. “There are waiting lists in some stores of as many as three hundred people.”
The ornament was designed to commemorate the 25th anniversary of the Star Trek television show. It also coincided with the pre-Christmas premiere of “Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Coun-try.” The death of the show’s creator Gene Roddenberry apparently has also boosted interest in the already popular Star Trek paraphernalia.
“Those factors I’m sure had a lot to do with the phenomenon of the ornament,” Helgager said.
Hallmark won’t release production statistics but Helgager said there are 11,000 stores in the United States that could have ordered the ornament. Hallmark store owners in the New York area said they ordered a few dozen ornaments each back in July.
The starship first hit the shelves along with other Hallmark ornaments in July as part of a special pre-season preview for collectors and others.
“It was an immediate sellout,” said Ron Falbee, owner of LeMarc’s Hallmark Stores at Roosevelt Field Shopping Center. There are 150 people on his store’s waiting list.
“They still want it,” he said, “even if it comes in January.”
A special thank you to D.G. for sending me the two extra images. Your mom did a splendid job!
How does the new Galileo compare to the original? Let’s take a look based off the recently released images and descriptions of the new Galileo. Obviously, the new Galileo eliminates the pigtail power cord of the 90’s for batteries. The 1992 Galileo featured lighting effects in the forward windows, while the 2026 version appears to forgo lights. Both ornaments include Spock’s iconic holiday message. Yay!!! The 2026 will have additional audio from the TOS episode. Where the 2026 shuttlecraft truly stands apart is in its sculpt, which is far more accurate. Yet it appears the paint scheme, on the underside and warp drive nacelles, reflects a more screen accurate gray tone on the 1992 shuttlecraft, while the 2026 Galileo has a more uniform color throughout.
Values below come from Hooked on Hallmark (HoH) and The Ornament Factory (OF) as of 04.12.26. Prices are based off ornaments in boxes listed in mint condition. It is very likely you can find Hallmark Star Trek ornaments at a reduced price on other sites or eBay.
This list should be used to judge rarity and demand rather than resell value.
Hooked on Hallmark and The Ornament Factory are not affiliated with this site. HallmarkStarTrekOrnaments.com does not resell ornaments.
Hallmark branded ornaments (red box ornaments) typically can not be found for resell on ornament websites. They are listed below in blue and their prices are based on the most recent eBay sales.
This is the ornament I am most excited for in 2026. It features a more accurate sculpt than the 1992 Galileo, now paired with episode audio and the original Leonard Nimoy Galileo dialogue that many of us can recite by heart. Let’s introduce a whole new generation to “Shuttlecraft to Enterprise. Shuttlecraft to Enterprise. Spock here. Happy holidays. Live long and prosper.”
The 2026 metal U.S.S. Enterprise G from Star Trek: Picard follows in the footsteps of 2018’s metal U.S.S. Enterprise. Here’s hoping it is not the last addition to the metal fleet.
Fans have been clamoring for the U.S.S. Cerritos since it first appeared on Star Trek: Lower Decks six years ago. This marks the first ship from the animated series, but the third overall ornament release. The line previously included 2023’s Badgey two pack and 2025’s Boimler and Mariner.
Majel Barrett’s Christine Chapel was never immortalized as an ornament, but Jess Bush’s Star Trek: Strange New Worlds version will debut in 2026. Women of Trek have seen strong representation in recent years from Hallmark, with releases including 2024 Beverly Crusher, 2025 Hologram Janeway, 2025 Guinan, 2025 Beckett Mariner, and 2025 Seven of Nine.
And check this one out! A 3-D scene inspired by the infamous 1968 AMT “Mr. Spock” model kit. It recreates Spock in his rocky alien diorama, phaser in hand, facing off against the three headed creature.
