The star of this year\u2019s gaming-themed collection is an impressively accurate recreation of the original PlayStation, complete with light effects and the console\u2019s iconic start-up sounds. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The ornament, which is the first time Hallmark has \u2018adapted\u2019 a PlayStation console, is now available for purchase exclusively from Hallmark with a retail price of $28.99. <\/p>\n<h2 data-cy=\"title2\" class=\"title2 jsx-1903782357 jsx-3735650234\"><strong>Hallmark Debuts PlayStation Keepsake Ornament in 2026 Collection<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">For a decoration that only measures four inches wide, Hallmark&#8217;s take on the PlayStation packs in the details. Artist Orville Wilson managed to squeeze in pretty much every divet and button you&#8217;d find on the actual console, including the trio of Power, Reset, and Open buttons. <\/p>\n<div id=\"240622\">\n<div class=\"jsx-3980863763 catalog-wrapper\"><span data-cy=\"productcard-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<div id=\"240622\" data-cy=\"solo-product-card\" class=\"solo-product SoloProduct_solo-product__r2_WP\">\n<div class=\"card jsx-722342313 jsx-3341285356 product-card SoloProduct_product-card__JSk8u\">\n<div class=\"product-thumbnail jsx-2285132617 SoloProduct_image__vqG4e\"><img alt=\"PlayStation\u2122 Console Ornament With Light and Sound\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-1809694635 jsx-2338608387 expand\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/07\/13\/psornament-1783972478654.jpg?width=220&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 1x, https:\/\/assets-prd.ignimgs.com\/2026\/07\/13\/psornament-1783972478654.jpg?width=220&amp;dpr=2&amp;format=jpg&amp;auto=webp&amp;quality=80 2x\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"\/><\/div>\n<p><h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-2827240024 name balanced\">PlayStation\u2122 Console Ornament With Light and Sound<\/h3>\n<\/p>\n<p><button class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button jsx-3381835873 jsx-3347269829 icon-button catalog-upvote SoloProduct_catalog-upvote__FWsVx centered disabled\" disabled=\"\" type=\"button\" title=\"Vote\" aria-label=\"Vote\" data-cy=\"catalog-upvote\"><span class=\"ign-icon icon-rating-like jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"icon-rating-like\" style=\"mask:url(https:\/\/kraken.ignimgs.com\/_next\/static\/media\/RatingLike.ea885513.svg?cors=1) no-repeat center center \/ contain;background:currentColor\"\/><\/p>\n<p>3<\/p>\n<p><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/div>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Given recent news about the digital-only future of PlayStation games, it almost brings a tear to my eye to see that &#8216;Open&#8217; button accompanied by a beautiful disc drive. A detailed rendition of the OG controller sits on top of the console and is also &#8216;plugged in&#8217; with a true-to-life wired connection. Turn the console around and you\u2019ll even find tiny AC and AV ports. <\/p>\n<p><output class=\"box-wrapper jsx-2673806401\" data-cy=\"article-video\"\/><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">An ever-growing trend in the Hallmark collections is lighting and sound effects. In this case, when you press the PlayStation\u2019s Power button, you\u2019ll see a little green light and hear the console\u2019s particularly iconic startup sound. To power its special effects, the ornament comes with three alkaline LR44 replaceable button batteries. <\/p>\n<h3 data-cy=\"title3\" class=\"title3 jsx-12333944 jsx-3517023867\"><strong>More Gaming Ornaments Announced for 2026<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The Hallmark Keepsake Ornament Premiere is a week-long event revealing over 250 new ornaments for 2026. A second batch of around 150 new ornaments will be revealed in another premiere event this September. Yes, it really is that serious. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Unlike the Hallmark-exclusive PlayStation console ornament, most other new Hallmark ornaments are available on Amazon. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">Nintendo is definitely getting a lot of love from the holiday retailer this year. Yoshi is getting his own high-tech ornament that features real motion reminiscent of the \u2018Hatchin Yoshi\u2019 toy that was released alongside The Super Mario Galaxy Movie. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The new collection also extends beyond just ornaments. You could make Santa Pikachu the very literal star of your celebrations with a tree topper of the iconic Pok\u00e9mon on a light-up Pok\u00e9 Ball.  <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">One company name missing from the list of new reveals is Xbox. In Hallmark\u2019s defense, they\u2019ve released tons of Xbox ornaments over the years, including an ornament of the original console that plays the theme music from Halo: Combat Evolved. <\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\"><em>Blythe (she\/her) is an Audience Development Coordinator at IGN who spends way too much time in character customization screens and tracking down collectibles. <\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<center><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/hallmark-playstation-console-ornament-2026-gaming-collection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article At Source <\/a><br \/>\n<center\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It might only be July, but Hallmark is already revealing its first wave of 2026 Keepsake Ornaments.
