NYCC: Hallmark
It’s become a tradition for Hallmark to have an exclusive ornament for San Diego Comic-Con and now New York. For the last couple of years they’ve been shared exclusives and this time around, the Star Wars ornament was the Wrath of the Rancor which featured Jabba the Hutt’s pet about to devour Luke Skywalker.
Also exclusive to the shows was a variant of the U.S.S. Kelvin ship from Star Trek and Superman from Man of Steel.
The other tradition is for Hallmark to debut the coming year’s ornaments. We reported on this when they were announced at SDCC but we now have photos. The 2014 ornaments will include Yoda, Scout Trooper, Sandcrawler, Boba Fett Lego, the Cantina Band and Darth Vader on his operating table from the end of Revenge of the Sith.
If you stopped by the booth you could also check out the assortment of mugs, signs and other Star Wars collectibles. The 2013 ornaments were on display and you could also have your photo taken in front of an Endor backdrop, complete with two stuffed Ewoks*.
*No Ewoks were harmed during the weekend.
