Soooo... I got a pretty cool alien 35th anniversary Christmas tree ornament as a gift this holiday. I never would have expected this sort of collector's item! I thought I'd share this with everyone here! Here's a link to the ornament:

It's a pretty good model replica of the original giger alien!

Indeed it is! Looks like it'd make a nifty little statue for a desk or something too, outside of the holidays.

Too bad the two lower dorsal tubes are upside down,otherwise a decent likeness.

Huh! That's weird. The pic does show they are upside down, but the orniment itself is correct actually! Weird! I can confirm that the dorsal tubes are all rightside up despite the photo on the website, AND despite the photo on the box it comes in.

I wound up getting two of these for Christmas ;D One from my mom and one from my girlfriend's mom. I put one on the tree and the other is hanging from my car's review mirror.

Lucky you! Lol

I thought it was a pretty nifty gift! Primarily because I didn't even know it existed! Lol

I found it in a Hallmark store a month before Christmas and it didn't take long for the word to get out that I wanted one.  ;D

That's really cool for such a cheap price. I really should pick one of these up for when we actually start putting trees up. xD

Get one now online before they either disappear or become more money.

I just got insider information that this Christmas, a similar Christmas tree orniment will be sold by Hallmark again! Only this time, it will be predator...

PS. Insider info comes from my mom (current employee).

The predator ornament! I like the alien one better! :-)

I bet next year we'll get "aliens" (fingers crossed).

My wife got one for me last year. In space no one can hear you opening presents.


Might need to leave my screen open on that page.
