If this was a different franchise I would see this as hyper commercial pandering and useless plastic junk.

But every year my good friends and I have an ornament exchange party where we are supposed to bring an ornament that embodies ourselves in some way or another. This would be perfect, as obviously me being here I love star trek, animals and Data is one of my favorites. Alas on the website I don’t see a direct way to buy this in Canada.

I wish Hallmark would have a better balance between promoting and featuring new shows and dial back having yet another 1701 TOS or TAS era model.

Given that Data’s connection to Spot was a significant plot/character point in Picard season three, I can get behind this one.

The Bagey one is however the only truly fresh collector’s item that profiles a currently running show.

However, they completely lost the window with our kids to get them interested in collecting. They would have loved a Discovery or more positive Lower Decks ornament a couple of years back. There was nothing.

Now, they’ve moved on to other fandoms that actually had stuff to collect. They each still have their favourite Eaglemoss Voyager and 1701-D ship models prominently on display in their rooms, but other franchises have crowded out interest in Star Trek.

As I have mentioned previously, Jon Van Citters and the CBS side really need to take a lesson from colleagues in the Paramount Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles team who have moved TMMT from niche collectibles back to main stream tie-ins that are worth 10 times the value of their new movie.

Those are all really neat this year. My dad used to have all the OG lighted ships from Hallmark. I always hoped I’d get them but they went to a boy cousin. Maybe this is where I now start my own collection.

The eye hook through the top of his head kind of ruins the feel-good effect for me.

I know who Data and Spot are and what “Ode to Spot” is but I only have a very vague idea what a “Hallmark” is.
