Hallmark has unveiled its latest line of gaming-themed ornaments, and that includes a PlayStation console figure which actually plays the iconic startup sound when you press the power button.
You can see the ornament in action via the Hallmark store, and it feels like a cheap form of time travel; I don't know about you, but I was momentarily yanked back to the '90s after hearing that sound. The green power light at the front of the console actually lights up when you press the button too, so Hallmark is clearly going for broke in terms of nostalgia so far as this PlayStation ornament goes.
This isn't the first PlayStation ornament Hallmark has produced (there's also a controller you can find for around $10 at Amazon), it's by far the coolest.
I do have questions about how loud this will actually be in person, but even if it's on the quiet side, that's still a damn cool feature. Indeed, it's cool enough to be one of the better PlayStation gifts out there – I can see it being a fun keepsake to keep on the shelf. There's no reason you have to keep the ornament hanger in, after all.
This is just one of Hallmark's 2026 ornaments, though. While you'll find everything from Disney figures (including Disneyland references like Pirates of the Caribbean or Soarin') to movies, many are gaming-related. These range from a Tears of the Kingdom Link (complete with rousing musical score) to Eevee-lutions. You can even get a Yoshi who pops out of its egg with the accompanying video game sound.
I've listed them below, and it looks like the vast majority are available now.
