2020 Character Contenders
Spock has returned to the Star Trek universe (a bit hairier) and Hallmark will pounce to capitalize on it. Look for a scene with Michael Burnham. Odds: 2:1
Captain Philippa Georgiou is due to get her own Star Trek spinoff so it would only make sense to promote her. Odds: 3:1
Captain Christopher Pike debuted in second season of Discovery with generally positive reactions. He is already a staple in the Star Trek universe and is a prime candidate. Odds: 3:1
Michael Burnham as the lead of the two year old series Discovery is portrayed in a 2019 scene ornament so the likelihood she’ll get a second in two years is not too likely unless it is with the new Spock. Odds: 9:1
Unless Captain Gabriel Lorca has a role in Season Two, 2020 is too far away for him to show up. Odds: 75:1
2020 Ship Contenders
The U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-B has been mysteriously absent from the Hallmark lineup for years. A strong contender for a Event Exclusive ornament. Odds: 5:1
Star Trek: Voyager celebrates its 25th anniversary in 2020. There is a good chance we get a reissue of the U.S.S. Voyager in metal form. The Voyager was first and last issued in 1996. Odds: 7:1
At some point we should expect Discovery’s design of the original U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 from the first season finale. Odds: 7:1
Star Trek: Discovery’s other ship, U.S.S. Shenzhou may be another angle at promoting Star Trek’s latest series. Odds: 22:1
Is the V’Ger likely to show up next season? Odds: 110:1
2020 Scene Contenders
The Talosians from the highly praised second season episode of Discovery, If Memory Serves, is very likely to get a scene ornament. This would also be a great opportunity to include new Spock. Odds: 3:1 (Added 3/13/19)
Nothing would be better than a Kirk ornament shouting “Khaaaaan!”. The Star Trek II scene has become a staple in the public lexicon. Odds: 4:1
Another year. Another Spock ornament. “Spock’s Brain” should please the fans. Odds: 4:1
There is no gray area on the reception a “Let That Be Your Last Battlefield” ornament would be. Odds: 5:1
“The Enemy Within” is screaming for an evil-Kirk ornament. Odds: 5:1
The time has never been more right than to release a “Plato’s Stepchildren” ornament celebrating Kirk and Uhura’s groundbreaking kiss. Odds: 8:1
A “Space Seed” ornament could revisit the popular Khan character that was first ornamentalized in 2005. Odds: 10:1
“Plato’s Stepchildren” gave us many iconic scenes (Spock laughing) but everyone would love to ring in the holidays with Kirk and Spock dancing a little jig. Odds: 14:1
The Kirk Death from the movie Star Trek: Generations is not very Christmasy but look no further than 2015’s “The Needs of the Many” ornament. Odds: 28:1
“The Corbomite Maneuver” would be favorite among diehard fans but lost on the general public. Odds: 250:1
2020 Prop Contenders
A three dimensional chess ornament? Check and mate! Odds: 7:1
Just sci-fi looking enough to possibly sneak in as a Christmas weapon ornament, the Phaser Rifle has a decent shot. Odds: 18:1
The Laser Pistol is more modern day sidearm than futuristic weapon. Odds: 30:1
Hallmark has given us the phaser, the communicator, the tricorder and even the transporter chamber, so what is left? Maybe a scene from the Next Generation Holodeck. Odds: 37:1

Can’t believe you would call the Enterprise B a strong contender for an event exclusive ornament! With the exception of the M’Ress/Arex set, every event exclusive ornament has been a repaint of a previous or concurrently-released ornament. The odds of Hallmark investing the money and resources to make Enterprise B an event exclusive ornament are nowhere near 5:1, they are so astronomical that they render the point moot. You can’t place odds on something that isn’t going to happen.
