Preorders for Enterprise B Showing Up on eBay

3 Replies

Future SDCC conventioneers are offering Event Exclusives (and their standing-in-line services) on eBay. Sellers are offering the Enterprise B (Nexus Damage), which has a limited run of 3,200 units, for around $115.

The Enterprise B will be first sold at the Hallmark booth at San Diego Comic-Con, July 25-28. Although it may be comforting to lay claim to the latest Hallmark Exclusive ornament early, once the convention begins and the ornaments are in hand, they will likely be available on eBay closer to $80.

Below are the average prices for each of the first eleven weeks of the 2021 HMS Bounty Klingon Bird-of-Prey. Three years later the Bounty can still be found on eBay for around $75.

Second Uhura Gold Available

Leave a reply

eBay item number: 196383871604

Just days after a 2009 Uhura Gold ornament sold on eBay for just under $1,000, a second Uhura Gold has been posted. This ornament has requiring a starting bid of $1,875 (with shipping).

Box in mint condition, only opened a few times. Uhura has never been touched by human hands, still in the plastic.

Hailing frequencies are open.” From the command deck of the Starship Enterprise, Lieutenant Uhura breaks the silence of deep space. As communications officer, she transmits messages in all the languages of the known galaxy. Hers is often the first human voice to be heard by alien races in unexplored star systems. Both Uhura’s name and her spirit reflect the Swahili word for “freedom.”

Usually seen in “engineering and security” red, Lieutenant Uhura wore this striking “command” gold uniform in only one original series episode, “The Corbomite Maneuver” (1966).

This special event edition repaint of the 2007 Lieutenant Uhura limited quantity ornament was created for exclusive distribution at major collector events and conventions.

This is one of the most sought after and limited 2009 Hallmark Keepsake ornaments. This ornament was only offered at the 2009 San Diego Comic Con (SDCC).

Production of this exclusive ornament was limited to just 450.

This ornament is a repaint or colorway version of the Limited Quantity 2007 Lieutenant Uhura ornament.

STAR TREK™

Back box text: 
“The Trouble With Tribbles” STAR TREK™
One of Star Trek’s most memorable episodes, “The Trouble With Tribbles,” first aired in 1967. The trouble with these soothing little fur balls is that they reproduce at warp speed and go boldly through Space Station K-7 eating anything that’s not nailed down – including an entire shipment of grain entrusted to Captain Kirk’s care! In the end, however, the tribbles – who hate Klingons – expose a Klingon agent who has poisoned the grain. As a parting gift, the remainder of them are beamed aboard the enemy ship, where Mr. Scott promises they’ll be “no tribble at all.”
Press the button on the base of the ornament to hear Captain Kirk speak and see the troublesome tribbles fall from the overhead compartment.

Additional information: This is artist Don Palmiter’s on Hallmark Star Trek ornament.
Pros: A brilliantly designed ornament that brings one of Star Trek’s most beloved comedic moments to life. Kirk in his iconic green wrap uniform is always a win—and the falling tribbles? Absolutely delightful.
Cons: As with other small-scale scene ornaments, facial details suffer, making Kirk’s likeness borderline disturbing. And while the tumbling tribbles are clever, the audible clicking as they fall is very noticeable. This ornament is HEAVY.

Will There Be a Beverly Crusher Ornament in ‘24?

Leave a reply

With the recent behind the scenes footage from the making of the 2024 Hallmark Dream Book we were able to get a quick glance of the Christopher Pike ornament that was announced late last year. Included in the image is a second ornament that looks similar to Beverly Crusher, our Next Generation doctor.

There is no doubt it bares a resemblance, from the red shoulder length hair and blue knee-length open medical coat to the black pants with matching collar. Couple that with the fact it is being photographed along side the Pike ornament on what would presumably be the Star Trek page of the Dream Book and the odds are likelier.

A Crusher ornament was my first thought after seeing the image but I quickly dismissed it. It seemed unlikely Hallmark would revisit the secondary characters of Next Generation. When I saw a reader’s comment on here also asking if it was Crusher, I looked again and couldn’t help but think there may be something to this revisit of the Next Generation crew. The cast was back in the spotlight with last year’s Picard Season 3 reunion and it may be the perfect time to honor the TNG crew more thoroughly. Perhaps this is part of a Next Generation Legends series that TOS was honored with from 2010-2016. Fingers crossed.

Possible Crusher ornament (left) from behind the scenes of the Dream Book shoot.
The file for the images is clearly marked Star Trek. Well, somewhat clearly.

CONFIRMED!

It seems it was answered before the question was even asked due to an overlooked comment from Kevin Dilmore.
