Box Text: Vulcans were the first alien species to make contact when humans achieved the technology to travel to the stars. The encounter was friendly, but as time passed, the Vulcans became paternalistic and controlling to protect their interests. The ships of the Vulcan High Command are never far from the ENTERPRISE as it explores neighboring regions of the galaxy.
This Keepsake Ornament is a ship from the Vulcan fleet that features their characteristic sleek daggerlike hull and upright ring design. The bridge is lighted, and blue panels glow from inside the propulsion ring. A small scout ship can be seen, docked in the aft section of the fuselage.
T’Pol has been assigned to ENTERPRISE NX-01 to oversee the humans’ progress in exploring deep space. She is cautious and guarded around humans – like other Vulcans, she considers them to be primitive and irrational. Still, she slowly develops a respect for Captain Archer and his crew.
Abducted and imprisoned on a hostile alien starship, Captain Jean-Luc Picard is freed by Commander Data in disguise. Together they battle their way through the corridors of the huge vessel into a shuttle bay, where they discover a fleet of Scorpion attack flyers.
Unable to open the shuttle doors, their only means of escape is for Captain Picard to pilot a Scorpion through the twisting interioir of the ship to freedom.
This Keepsake Ornament features glowing lights on the Scorpion’s wing panels ans exhaust port as well as in the landing lights. The cockpit instrument panel is also lighted. Sculpted by Hallmark Keepsake Artists Lynn norton and Anita Marra Rogers.

The Scorpion ornament was sculpted by Lynn Norton but the Data and Picard figures within were sculpted by Anita Marra Rogers. Rogers sculpted a majority of Star Trek ornaments that were not starships and generally focused on figures.
All promotional photos of the Scorpion are shown with a clear canopy and characters are easily seen. Final production of the Scorpion included a tinted canopy mostly obscuring the characters inside.
“Look closely beyond the smoked canopy of the Scorpion ornament, and you may discern painted figures of Captain Picard and Data in the cockpit as sculpted by Keepsake Artist Anita Marra Rogers. Original designs for the ornament included a transparent canopy transparent on the ornament, but changed to match the studio model used for filming. The change came too late to alter photographs on the ornament’s retail box and other Hallmark publications, which clearly show the figures.” -Kevin Dilmore
Box Text: THE DOCTOR Emergency Medical Hologram, U.S.S. Voyager Famous words: “Please state the nature of your medical emergency.”
Long-range Starfleet vessels are equipped with an EMH, or Emergency Medical Hologram in humanoid form, capable of treating any known disease or injury. When the U.S.S. Voyager was stranded and its medical crew killed, the ship’s emergency “Doctor” answered the call. His computer program ran continuously and adapted to new situations. Over time, the Doctor developed a unique personality and came to be regarded as a valued member of the crew.

Lynn Norton…
“It’s a very cool ship. In my mind, it typified what a starship should look like even more so than the original Enterprise. I always had a bit of a problem with a primary hull and this secondary hull sticking out from it and then your engines are way in the air on these pylons. I always imagine that there is something happening in these engines that would harm the crew, so you want them as far away from the crew and even the engineering section as possible. The NX-01 was integrated. It is sculpturally more pleasing to me.
“We did that ornament in diecast metal to save time. The show was airing on television and we wanted to get it into the marketplace as fast as possible. We didn’t have the long development time that we need for a lighted, mechanical ornament. This one was nickel-plated zinc that gives it added value for the price, and it looked a lot like the skin of the ship. I really like the looks of it. I’ve heard a few complaints over time about our not doing one that was lighted, but we did have dialogue from Scott Bakula that played from a display base.” – See more at: http://www.startrek.com/article/hallmark-sculptor-lynn-norton-on-the-storied-history-of-trek-keepsake-ornaments?ecid=PCID-2617611&pa=affcj#sthash.OK91MU1o.dpuf
Featuring Light and Voice! A unique ornament! The Delta Flyer was originally intended as a space-faring “hot rod” by a crew member known for his keen interest in 20th-century automobiles. Later, as numerous crew members collaborated on design and construction, their diverse backgrounds were reflected in the technologically advanced shuttlecraft.
This Keepsake Ornament adds a bit of magic to your holidays with its red and blue lights – and a message from the captian of the U.S.S. Voyager:
“This is Captain Janeway of the Federation Vessel Delta Flyer. We are on a mission of peaceful exploration.”

Worf, the first Klingon to serve as a Starfleet officer, served as a Lieutenant on the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D under the command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard, and quickly climbed through the ranks to become a Lieutenant Commander, as the Operations Officer on Deep Space Nine, under the command of Captain Benjamin Sisko. Born on the Klingon Homeworld, the eldest son of Mogh, Worf was raised by humans because his family was killed at the Battle of Kittamer when the Romulans destroyed the Klingon outpost because they were betrayed by the Duras family. After accepting discommendation, Worf eventually regained the honor of his family by killing Duras with his Bat’leth – the same weapon his father once used, as featured in this Star Trek Hallmark Ornament. Worf, like most Klingons, values of honor and loyalty above all else, as demonstrated by his most famous quote from Star Trek: The Next Generation, where he said: “If winning is not important, then why keep score?” … spoken like a TRUE Klingon

Captain Kathryn Janeway (played by actress Kate Mulgrew) is featured in the 1998 Star Trek Hallmark ornament. Captain Janeway is in command of the Federation Starship U.S.S. Voyager, and is hurled into an exciting and terrifying adventure in the Delta Quadrant, along with the rest of her crew and some Marquis that she picked up along the way. As she and the crew of voyager strive to find a way back to Earth, they encounter a wide variety of different species and obstacles, but none more treacherous than the Borg. With technology that Captain Janeway sent herself from the future, she is able to defeat the vile Borg queen, and use one of the Borg conduits to get Voyager and her crew back to Earth. We later discover that Captain Janeway is promoted to Admiral, most likely for her heroic deed by destroying the biggest enemy that the Federation had ever faced, and under the most dire of situations.

Lynn Norton…“I adore the E. They did things to it to make it look more aerodynamic than it needed to be, but those choices gave it more style—a more swept-back, speedy appearance like a modern race car.
“There were a lot of products out there being developed right along side the model during (Star Trek: First Contact’s) production. I was getting the same photos from the studio as everyone else was, and originally the E had a blue-glowing deflector array. We went to see the movie and there’s that whole scene set on the deflector array and they’re out there walking around on it—and it’s amber! I was like ‘What the?’ But we were able to make that change while the ornament was in development at the toolmaker. Because it didn’t go to stores right away, our ornament was one of the few screen-accurate products on the market at the time.” – See more at: http://www.startrek.com/article/hallmark-sculptor-lynn-norton-on-the-storied-history-of-trek-keepsake-ornaments?ecid=PCID-2617611&pa=affcj#sthash.FH7duoLo.dpuf
