Guinan in her famous defensive or offensive pose as she confronts Q from the episode “Q Who” (Season 2, Episode 16). It remains unclear if Guinan actually has any powers on the level of Q or simply mimicking his stance.It appears the Hallmark artist decided to drop Guinan’s left hand below her right to expose more of her face for the ornament’s final design.
Although the table decoration is in celebration of ‘The Best of Both Worlds’ 35th anniversary, Hallmark’s promotional images replicate the angle and scale of the Enterprise D facing off with the Borg ship in “Q Who” (Season 2, Episode 16).
“So a few years ago Hallmark started releasing Star Trek Storytellers and my Little One loves watching it and called it Star Trek Tree Ball (Ball because the Death Star tree topper is This-a-Ball and he equates all tree toppers with balls now) LO also loved going to the Hallmark store to pick up/out ornaments and watching the display models. Long story medium, LO calls all Hallmark stores “Star Trek Tree Ball Store” because for the longest time they’d have the entire set out for display and demonstration. (he’s 4 now)” –Stephen Leninsky on Facebook
Although the next wave of Star Trek ornaments aren’t due for release until October 11th, early displays have been popping up in some Hallmark stores. Three weeks until the Hallmark Ornament Debut!

“There have been several, well would you believe a few, okay one request for us to post pictures of our Star Trek Christmas tree. All the Hallmark Star Trek ornaments since the first one. We keep it up year around and have had friends wanting their pictures taken with it. Maybe someday it should be in a museum or wherever it may be enjoyed.”-Fredric Eichelman on Facebook
“Every Star Trek ship hallmark has made since they started making them in the early 90s. (Minus the one this year with Apollo’s hand) Only one ship is not Star Trek, but my husband I both feel it still deserves a place on the tree.”-Krista McIntosh
