2011 Glow In The Dark Defiant Sells on eBay *SOLD*

2 Replies

Limited to a run of 700, the 2011 Defiant isn’t as rare as the 2009 Uhura Gold (450 units) but may be more in demand. The glow in the dark ornament doesn’t show up on second hand resell sites as often as the Uhura Gold, although one did sell in December for $1,899.99. One factor leading to the Defiant’s scarcity, there is a subset of Star Trek ornament collectors that only collect Hallmark’s ships and do not collect the Star Trek figures. And it doesn’t hurt that the Defiant has cool, glow in the dark action!

Sold December 10, 2021 for $1899.99.

Correction: 2022 McCoy Storyteller To Be Released in October

2 Replies

Good morning! I saw your weekend posts this morning and I’d like to correct an error that came through on the Instagram sneak peeks.

Our Lt. Scott Storyteller ornament will be available in July 2022 but our Dr. McCoy Storyteller ornament won’t hit stores until October 2022.

Sorry to be the bearer of not-so-fun news. I pledge to you that we will roll out enough Star Trek fun with new Keepsake Ornaments, Hallmark Ornaments and gift items that Bones’ fall arrival won’t feel like much of a wait at all. 🖖

-Kevin Dilmore

And now I’ll correct my correction: Scotty is a Lieutenant Commander! Sheesh—it was early when I sent that in. Haha!

UPDATED: Last Two Star Trek Storytellers Available in July 2022

Leave a reply


UPDATE: There has been a correction to this since it was posted. Hallmark announced that McCoy will be released in October and not July as the Instagram post indicated.

Hallmark is releasing both of the final Storyteller ornaments in July this year instead of splitting them up between summer and fall like years past. July will bring us McCoy and Scotty to round out the Mirror, Mirror Storytellers series. The Enterprise tree topper, Kirk, Spock, Uhura, Sulu, Chekov will all be available for the last time in Hallmark stores this year.

2022 Leonard McCoy Stiryteller.
2022 Montgomery Scott Storyteller.

Sneak Peek Week: Star Trek on 1/17/22

Leave a reply

Hallmark has announced a Sneak Peek Week with Star Trek leading things off on Monday. The week’s previews consist of ”Keepsake ornaments, itty bittys and gift releases”. What does that mean for our beloved Star Trek franchise? It will likely be a more formal introduction of the final two Storyteller ornaments, Dr. Leonard McCoy and Lt. Commander Montgomery Scott, which we previewed in November. Stay tuned!

Artist Inspirations: Picard (2021)

5 Replies

It appears the 2021 Hallmark Picard ornament was inspired by a deleted scene or photo from the set of Star Trek: The Next Generation’s series finale, ”All Good Things…”.

Left: 2021 Hallmark Picard ornament.
Middle: Picard on set of The Next Generation’s ”All Good Things…”.
Above: Images of Picard on trial in ”Encounter at Farpoint” with crew by his side and standing on an unlit platform confirming the inspirational image was not taken from this episode with a similar set.
Left: Image from ”All Good Things…” where Q questions Picard. Picard stands during every trial scene with his arms at his sides.
Right: Picard’s pose with right hand over left is never seen during the episode which makes it likely from a deleted scene or an onset photo due to coverage of the series’ finale.

The only other images I could find of Picard in the same pose…

Left: Image from “Jean-Luc Picard Was the Father Figure I Needed”, startrek.com, January 9, 2020.
Right: 2014 set of salt and pepper shakers.

I would take great delight if the artist’s inspiration was taken from a salt shaker.

109) 2021 Hallmark Star Trek: The Next Generation Captain Jean-Luc Picard Christmas Ornament 

5 Replies

I have no idea how this one snuck past me but I would like to thank CJ for giving me a heads up on the omission. I don’t believe it was a wide release in 2021 so it may be more readily available in 2022. It is currently listed as unavailable on Amazon.
