Not all Christmas ornaments need to wear a Santa hat. Sometimes, they just need to ride a kick-ass motorcycle and an expression that lets you know your Christmas gifts are safe from walkers. As the Walking Dead enters a new phase of its existence, we thought it would be a great year to add Daryl to the tree. We loved the sculpt and the fact that he comes complete with his motorcycle. It would be great to see him as next year’s Peekbuster ornament, but for now, we’ll be happy to hang him on our tree, along with our walker-ear garland.

We’ve never featured a nativity set before, but that’s because we’ve never seen one quite like this. Gorilla Goodies’s Hipster Nativity is a thing of wonder to behold. This is no tiny little display. Each figure is 7″ tall, making the whole display a perfect centerpiece for your Christmas party this year. So what makes it so special? The attention to detail is insane. The three Wise Men are riding segways and carrying Amazon Prime boxes. Joseph and Mary are taking a selfie with the baby Jesus! The cos is labled as organic and the feed as gluten-free! Don’t even get us started on Joseph’s man-bun or Mary’s duck- lips and Starbucks!!! It’s not only one of the coolest and most unique Christmas Decorations that you’ll find this year it’s also amazingly affordable given everything that comes with it.

It’s Mulan’s 20th anniversary as a Disney Princess and it is amazing that she doesn’t get more love than she does. Aside from being one of the toughest princesses (sorry Snow White), her movie had some of the best-stylized design of any modern Disney classic. We thought this new ornament was worthy of a spot on your tree because Hallmark’s artists captured that art-style perfectly! Besides, how many Mulan items are there that actually come with her faithful steed, Kahn!?!

The Dragon Christmas Tree Topper from Gorilla Goodies is probably the most insane and metal Christmas Tree Topper that you’ll see this or any other year. This is the kind of thing that Lemmy from Motorhead probably used to dream about instead of sugarplum fairies. They’ve created a beautifully sculpted, light-up, fire-breathing dragon that’s being ridden by Santa Clause in a Viking Helmet! This Santa can beat the crap out of any other Santa on the block. One of the things we liked most about this Tree Topper (other than the obvious), is that you don’t have to use it as one. Sure, you can put it on the top of your tree, but it was designed with a flat bottom, so it also makes for a great decoration to put on a table or mantle. Imagine Santa and his dragon watching over the stockings you’ve hung with such care! Just remember, if you want one, you’d better act fast! It’s a limited edition collectible and only 500 exist in the world!

We spend a lot of time talking about all the cool ornaments you can get for your Christmas Tree, but we ignore a very important problem. Most people put their Christmas Tree in the corner of a room or against a wall. This means that nearly half the tree either stays naked or you never get to see all the ornaments you’ve hung on it. If you’ve been having this problem, you need an electric, rotating tree stand like Vickerman’s 24″ Electric Rotating Tree Stand. We really liked this tree stand because it was sturdy and it worked! Also, it can handle up to a 7.5′ artificial tree. With that said, you want to be sure that you don’t try to use this on a natural tree. Water and electricity do not a merry Christmas make! We wanted to suggest this as either a gift for yourself or as the perfect item your friend or family member that needs to kick their Christmas Tree game up a notch. When the holidays are over, there’s one final feature that makes this tree stand great. It breaks down into easy to store pieces. In fact, we were able to put it into our tree storage bag with no problem at all!

Other than Die Hard, there aren’t many better holiday movies than A Christmas Story and no self-respecting geek should go through Christmas without something to remind them of it. Unfortunately, Red Ryder bb guns probably aren’t the best idea, but the Kurt S. Adler A Christmas Story™ Bunny Suit Ralphie Table Piece might just be the perfect thing. At 4/5″ it stands out but doesn’t take up your whole table. Plus, the decorative figure just looks cool. It featured Ralphie in his least favorite, but most famous, outfit the pink nightmare! The bunny pajamas are even flocked, to give them a much more realistic look. If we could figure out a way to fit this Ralphie into a nativity, we’d do it, but either way, he’s earned a spot on display until at least the end of the holidays.

We’ll admit, that a glass ornament of a missing girl poster from a carton of milk might not be the most festive ornament to add to this year’s tree, but c’mon… it’s Barbara! The fact that there even is a glass Christmas ornament of Barbara from Stranger Things kind of blows our mind and we can’t imagine that any other Stranger Things fans would feel differently. The only question is whether it is better to give this ornament as a gift or to slip it on to a branch of your friend’s tree while they aren’t paying attention and then wait for them to notice.

The Doctor Who Christmas Special has become such a ubiquitous part of the holiday season that it has become a tradition in several countries around the world. With the 13th Doctor now making her way in the TARDIS, it’s a great time to show your love of the Time Lord and some of his most famous foes in this great new boxed set from Kurt S. Adler. The set includes four figures, each around 3″ tall and including The Weeping Angels, The Daleks, a Cyberman, and the adorable Adipose.

Glass ornaments give a warm and traditional vibe to any Christmas Tree, but who wants a bunch of boring glass balls on their tree when they can have a sparkly, blue, glass TARDIS from Doctor Who? We mentioned sparkly because that is really what sets this ornament apart for us. We normally hate glitter, but the sparkles on the doors and side panels of the TARDIS really add a little bit of magic that will help it stand out on any tree.

Do you have a Plumbus on your Christmas tree? Well, do you?!? If you don’t, there is still time to fix it. This is an ornament we just never expected to see as a real thing. Who would have ever thought that someone would make a Plumbus ornament? You can even get one with a Santa hat! This 3.5″ blowmold Rick and Morty Christmas ornament is as unexpected as it is awesome. If you know anyone who loves the show, buy it for them and just put it on their tree. Don’t even ask. Just do it!

Winter isn’t just coming. Look outside. Winter is HERE! Game Of Thrones is rolling fast and hard towards its finale. Heck, they are already working on the spin-off! Make sure that the show remains in your heart forever with the dragon eggs of Drogon, Rhaegal, and Viserion. the 3.5″ (around the size of a chicken egg) ornaments hang from a silver chain and will add a regal if not deadly accent to any Christmas tree. The ornaments are beautifully detailed and a must for any GOT fan on your gift list.

The children were dreaming all snug in their beds with visions of happy little trees all up in their heads. It doesn’t matter if you are on the nice list or the naughty one. When you’ve got the Bob Ross Christmas stocking hanging over your fireplace, lumps of coal become happy little accidents. In many ways, Bob Ross is more popular now than ever before. If you’ve got a fan of his on your gift list, they’ll flip out when they see it. If you really want to blow their mind, slip a set of water colors into the stocking before you give it to them!

When it comes to Christmas decorations, we’ve always believed that the more lights and music, the better. If you can throw in some Peanuts characters, you are really in for a treat. That’s what we love about the battery-operated musical animated table piece decorations from Kurt Adler. Our favorite is a recreation of the Charlie Brown Christmas scene where all the kids are looking for the perfect Christmas Tree. It’s a beautifully designed vignette with all your favorite Peanuts characters and snow-covered scenery. Then, at the push of a button, the lights of the Christmas Tree shop turn on and it begins playing the ‘Linus and Lucy’ theme from Peanuts. It’s awesome!

It was just around this time last year that the world lost Carrie Fisher. While we know that they’ll be using old footage to insert her into Star Wars: Episode IX, it’s hard to imagine that Princess Leia has passed on. In our house, Star Wars and Christmas have always gone together. That’s what drew us to this new Princess Leia and R2D2 Holiday Table Piece. The PVC, polyester, and fabric mache puts a delightful holiday spin on one of the most iconic scenes in the entire Star Wars Saga. If only you could press a button and hear Leia say something like: Help Me Obi-Wan Kenobi. You’re my last hope to save Christmas. Well, that’s what we hear in our heads when we look at it.

OK. Let’s just deal with the fact that even the name of this thing is intimidating. However, once you get past the double and triple entendres, you’ve got one of the most badass nutcrackers that’s ever been made. It’s not only Batman, but it’s the grey/ black-suited Batman. Interestingly, he’s got an almost Ben Affleck-like jaw-line and chin, but we don’t think that was actually on purpose. All we know is that if this was the Nutcracker that was in the ballet, a lot more nuts would have been cracked and probably some tin soldiers would be limping home with busted knees.

One of the things that Kurt Adler is famous for is their nutcrackers. You just saw the coolest Batman nutcracker ever made, now check out an equally awesome Nutcracker based on everyone’s favorite bounty hunter from a Galaxy Far, Far, Away – Boba Fett. This 10″ tall decorative nutcracker is made of wood, resin, and cloth and looks absolutely perfect! It’s possible that Boba Fett may be the most famous character in pop culture per words spoken. It was never really his words that people cared about. It’s all about that Mandalorian armor. The same thing goes with this Nutcacker. Adler did an amazing job of capturing all the relevant details of the Boba Fett costume while still giving it the classic Nutcracker vibe. It doesn’t matter whether you are light-side or dark-side, this is a Star Wars holiday decoration that you’ve got to have.

When it comes to cartoons and Christmas, we are always going to come back to the Charlie Brown Christmas Special and Snoopy. With so many people collecting nutcrackers at this time of the year, we think that it is important that everyone have at least one holiday Snoopy in their collection. Our favorite is the Kurt S. Adler Snoopy in a red Santa suit. It looks like the kind of thing that might have been in the background of a Normal Rockwell painting of kids playing at Christmas. It’s a well-painted, wooden nutcracker that just makes you feel good. If you love Snoopy, Nutcrackers, or you know someone who does, grab one of these while you can.

Who needs an angel when you’ve got a Sith Lord? That’s the question that anyone with this Light-up Darth Vader Christmas Tree Topper is going to be asking for many seasons to come. This 12″ tall Vader featured a battery-operated Light Saber that glows red with the assistance of a couple batteries. He’s the perfect guardian to stand over your tree, ready to strike down anyone who comes skulking around to shake their present ahead of Christmas morning. We’ll just say this. With the sleek, detailed design and the menacing glare of Vader’s mask, we can’t imagine that even the Grinch would try to steal Christmas if he came upon this dark lord.

Why do people think that Elf on The Shelf is the only way to rope your kids into the magic of Christmas? We’d much rather bring kids something that feels like real magic like the Magic Light Wand. It’s a magic wand that works as a remote for your Christmas lights or tree. All you have to do is connect it and hand the wand to a child. With a few magic words (and pushing a button), your child now has the power to bring the magical lights of the holidays to life! One of the things we liked about the Magic Light Wand is that it feels like it has applications for post-holiday use. You could connect it to a night light, or any other light in your kid’s room. The result is a year-round source of magic that you and your child can enjoy together!
