We know a lot of you are always anxious and eager to get your hands on the annual Hallmark Star Trek Keepsake Ornaments — a tradition that’s lasted nearly 30 years — and today we can report that for 2018, there will be six more to add to your holiday collection… including a side trip to The Animated Series!

As we first reported last August, one of this year’s wide-release options will be a recreation of the iconic “Sulu fencing” scene from “The Naked Time,” with Kirk ducking under his helmsman’s épée on the Enterprise bridge. Noted as a ‘magic’ ornament, an internal audio chip will play dialogue from the scene.

Release Date: July 14, 2018 · Pricing: $29.99

The next entry from the Original Series is the Wah Chang-designed Starfleet tricorder, another wide-release ornament due this summer. We first spotted this at Hallmark’s booth during New York Comic Con in October; this ‘magic’ ornament is to both light up and feature classic Trek dialogue playback.

Third in line is the first Star Trek: Discovery release from Hallmark, the Crossfield-class USS Discovery, which was first announced by the company in September 2017.

This golden-painted starship ornament doesn’t have an audio component, but it does light up; based on this catalog image it looks like lighting is in both the bridge dome and blue engine components of the secondary hull.

This next starship ornament features an all-metal production of the Constitution-class USS Enterprise. This is the seventh full-size TOS-era Enterprise ornament to join the collection since the first 1991 ornament (it’s also been featured in miniature-sized renditions as well), and the third in two years after 2016’s gold and “The Cage”-era releases.

This ornament won’t have any lighting or sound, but the metal construction is noted as a ‘premium’ release, set for arrival in Autumn 2018.

Release Date: October 6, 2018 · Pricing: $39.99

Finally, as with the past several years, Hallmark is also reserving a few ornaments as exclusive convention-only releases… and this year, they’re celebrating the 45th anniversary of Star Trek: The Animated Series with a $40 two-pack of character ornaments of that show’s most well-known alien crewmembers!

Caitian communications officer M’Ress and three-armed Edosian navigator Arex are the first Animated Series ornaments in the Hallmark series, and some of the very few pieces of TAS merchandise ever really released from a retailer; the only other comparable products we can think of are FanSets’ M’Ress pin and Arex pin released in 2016.

As convention exclusives, this paired release will not be available from Hallmark stores or their web shop — they’ll only be for sale at San Diego Comic Con in July, New York Comic Con in October, and yes, STLV 2018 in Las Vegas this August.

Event Availability Dates: July 19-22 (San Diego Comic Con), August 1-5 (Star Trek Las Vegas 2018), October 4-7 (New York Comic Con).
