Every year I always get some video game themed Christmas ornaments from Hallmark and write about them here.  I plan to do that this year, too.  But in this year’s batch, there was a video game themed ornament that doesn’t belong with the Christmas stuff.  You see, Hallmark has gotten into making Halloween ornaments as well.  While I think having a Halloween tree is a bit much, some people do like their spooky stuff!  Usually they have things I’m not much interested in, like Harry Potter ornaments.  And even the ones I think are kind of cool I wouldn’t get, like Peanuts and Disney’s Haunted Mansion ornaments.  But when they released a Pikachu Halloween ornament this year, I just had to get it.  So let’s take a look at it.

Here it is with the box.  The box is way bigger than the ornament because they had a lot of packaging inside.  Guess they didn’t want it to break.

And here’s it just outside the box.  Look how big that smile is!  I do wish the ornament stood up better on its own.  I would’ve left it out like that since I don’t have a Halloween tree to hang it up on.

And that’s all for now!  I’ll have another article with the other ornaments up closer to Christmas.  Later!  –Cary
