SEGA Dreamcast Console Musical Ornament With Light

Reminisce about hours spent gaming in your bean bag chair with this SEGA Dreamcast Console Hallmark Keepsake Christmas ornament. Video game console design features light and sound.

www.hallmark.com

I haven’t opened it yet, but I thought it was unexpected cool and as hell. Some of the Sega fans around here might be interested. I can link game consoles with exactly what was going on with my life at the time, so tons of fond memories with Dreamcast.

The VMU and system power button lights up, and it plays the opening stage track from Sonic Adventure.

There’s also Luigi for anyone collecting the Mariokart ornaments.

Tell me you didn't even look at the OP without telling me you didn't even look at the OP.


Very cool. The picture on the VMU is a nice touch too. I kinda want one lol.

Could be a nice little gift I guess. For the adult gamer that wants to straddle that line between staying immature but also acknowledge that adults give boring gifts like Christmas ornaments.

Hallmark is that TV channel that plays cheap romance movies as far as I'm aware, so what are they doing selling Christmas ornaments, lol

I learned about them when I married my wife. I chalked it up as a white person Christmas thing.

That's arguably the least Christmassy ornament I've seen. I looked at the Hallmark site and it seems that you can take absolutely any bit of plastic that might normally dangle off a keyring, call it a 'keepsake', and sell it for 1000% markup.

apparently you didn't grow up in the 80s or 90s walking through malls which always had a Hallmark store, with a ton of cards and a yearly selection of special Christmas ornaments

That was loooong before they became a TV channel

 

[ComputerBlue]

Those Hallmark Christmas ornaments are amazing, and they’re really high-quality. Last year I bought the Seinfeld puffy shirt one, which inspired me to make a Seinfeld related shadowbox for my sister as a birthday gift.

Lol. You must be very young. Are you serious right now? You realize Hallmark is a greeting card company that has been making them forever. They also have brick and mortar stores. They are known for their Christmas ornaments as well.

All aboard the poo-choo train!

Mario kart Luigi needs the stare.

Hahaha. Missed opportunity.

 

[El Muerto]

They usually have a section dedicated to these at Walmart. I'll definitely need to get the Dreamcast one. I grabbed a Sonic and a Sega Genesis ornament last year.

 

[Synless]

They rereleased the NES one as well. I missed it the first go round.

 

[calistan]

Does anyone seriously put this Hallmark stuff on a Christmas tree? I mean, look at this crap:

 

[Pasta la Vista]

That's awesome, I might actually get that.

Lol. You must be very young.

Nope, I'm from Europe. We don't have that here. I didn't even know that they were anything more than a TV channel on cable.

Forgive my American-centric assumptions then.

I support the Hallmark channel because I love basic white girls, they're the best.

like ex-mean girl Lacey Chabert , a true queen of the basics

 

[Danny Dudekisser]

I MUST HAVE THIS.

 

[Magic Carpet]

Want!

They’re a store that sells greeting cards, gifts, and some cool Christmas Ornaments each year.

They also have the sappy channel playing predictable romance movies.

The cool shit, absolutely. Some pieces are very well sculpted.

Are you mental? That Jabba is lit af!

That's the wife's present sorted, she'll love it

Here's that Dreamcast Mini everyone has been asking for

 

[Happosai]

Love it! Seems SEGA's marketing team may be a few years off though for Dreamcast Christmas merch. 25 odd years late lol. But seriously, this is pretty sweet that they just randomly dropped Dreamcast in there.
