Just got an email about the ornament premiere, July 11-12.

The Dream Book link:

Some ornaments that are Halloween related. I didn't see another Universal Monster this year like last years Frankenstein.

The yearly Nightmare Before Christmas ornament

A cute black witchy kitten in a cupcake. They have a whole line of these cupcake things, one for every season.

Predator

Dr. Zaius (to go with last years Cornelius, I was hoping for a Zira instead)

And I save the best for last.....wait for it.......................DARYL DIXON!!!

I handed my wish list in for the Jack ornament, the oogie boogie ornament, and the next sugar skull ornament, which is a cat! They are also re-releasing the 1st sugar skull this year, since it was so popular last year. Can't wait!

Yay! Thanks for starting the new Hallmark ornament thread. I went a bit nuts last year with all the awesome Halloween ornaments they had, so I'm trying to reign myself in. But I just HAVE to get Daryl! I'm adding in another couple of pics from my wish list too. Love the zombie boy inside the pumpkin. And my favorite must have for this year (not counting Daryl) is, of course, Beetlejuice! Can't wait!

Oogie Boogie!!

Sugar Skull cat

 

[RCIAG]

Ooo! Didn't see the zombie boy in the pumpkin one!!

Yipes, I have to get the 1 fire truck ornament, maybe the Mickey firehouse thing....starts wishlist!!

Jezebel, I think there are two different books floating around out there. My friend showed me his book first, so I knew about the zombie boy in the pumpkin, but then when I went home to make out my wishlist I couldn't find him in my book. I had to look it up online, but it is listed on the wishlist to order. Not sure why some books got more pics than others. Thank goodness for Google!

OK, if I buy EVERYTHING I just put on my list I'm up to $285.30. Oy vey. I won't buy them all at once & some, like Daryl, aren't available in July so that helps. I always get my fire department ones & the NBC ones early or else you can't find them later on.

My list so far:

-Anna & Elsa (of course, the cousin's little girl is obsessed but there's a TON of those things out there so I may not go for these)
-Daryl (duh)
-Ruby Red Cardinal (that sucker is $45 but my husband loves the Hallmark bird ornaments)
-Oogie Boogie & the other NBC one with Jack & Zero
-Mr & Mrs Claus Salty & Peppy shakers (I'm a sucker for vintagey Christmas stuff)
-1956 Ford Fire Engine (we have 2 firefighters so I need 2 of those)
-Dr. Zaius
-Cookie Cutter Halloween mouse
-Happy Halloween! Zombie boy in pumpkin
-Blue Bunting Bird mini
-Beauty of Birds Western Tanager
-Cat Sugar skull
-Disney's Fire Brigade (another expensive one, not sure if I'll get one or 2 but at least one)

OK here the link for the ornaments that aren't in the wishbook. Sadly there's no search feature for just the ornaments.

Spookywolf, I think the book that comes early for club members has more info in it than the general book that comes out in stores. The one we got had all the Halloween related ornaments in it. Also, something else that wasn't pictured in the book, but was listed on the "wishlist" is that they are re-releasing the sugar skull from last year as well, so if you missed it, this is your chance. I don't know if it will be as limited as last year or not, I don't think they were counting on it being as popular.

 

[Spookywolf]

Well my willpower is already weakening. I told myself I wasn't going to get the next sugar skull ornament, but I already have the sweet skull from last year, so how can I not get the cat one too? Argh! Okay, here's my list...

Beetlejuice
Daryl Dixon
H.H., Zombie boy in pumpkin
NBC Here Comes the Pumpkin King - love the song that plays! Does anyone know if the pumpkins light up?
Peanuts Flying Ace - Snoopy in the Red Baron plane (I'm a sucker for anything Snoopy!)
Feed the Reindeer - w/Taz (love him!)
Sugar skull cat

And I never thought of just buying one of the cupcake ornaments - don't ask me why. I guess I was thinking of them as a set. But I might have to consider getting at least the black cat cupcake too. Okay, I gotta stop now. This is how I got in trouble last year!

 

[gloomycatt]

Daryl...be still my heart! Also need sweet skull and the new kitty sugar skull, Jack and Zero, and Beetlejuice. Maybe next year they'll have Lydia?

 

[gloomycatt]

Oooh! Rainbow Brite!!!! She will be mine!

 

[RCIAG]

I'm kinda glad they stagger the releases so we don't spend ALL our money at once.

 

[Bethany]

thanks for sharing links!!

 

[Serpentia]

...Is it so wrong to want to buy that Predator, and then hang him on a Christmas tree and see how long it takes for someone to notice him....?

p.s. the cupcake cat is adorable, I wants him.

 

[Bethany]

I wanted the crab cupcake, but his nose is just so out of place. Crabs don't have noses like that.

I agree on the cupcake cat. Think I'll have to get one, being a cake decorator & cat lover.

ORNAMENT PREMIERE IS THIS SATURDAY!!

Best part? My husband has to work overtime so I get to go & BINGE ALONE!! MUH-WHA-HA-HA!!

Actually, he digs them as much as I do so I'll most likely not get as many as I would if he were with me.

My Hallmark actually had the ornaments out yesterday, but you could not buy any yet. Still, it was great to see them! They had them partially covered with a red curtain, but 75% of the ornaments were easily visible without moving the curtain. I didn't see Daryl, I think he might be an October release?
