I saw the Hallmark Lion King 25th Anniversary Ornament when I was looking for items to use as part of a display for my Couture Kingdom Lion King jewellery. As Hallmark don’t sell their Christmas ornaments in the UK I purchased mine via EBay UK for $45 including postage.
I love it, but their are a few caveats to this statement. It plays Hakuna Matata and the back lights up. The sound, as you can hear in my YouTube clip is perfect, not distorted or muffled even though the speaker is on the bottom of the ornament. Pumba and Simba are perfect replicas of the cartoon version. Now the caveats, the light isn’t as intense as the picture on the box and Timon is the same colour as Pumba whereas on the box and in the original movie he is a lot lighter in colour. Apart from that it is the perfect item to celebrate the 25th anniversary of the original Lion King movie and looking at it brings back happy memories of going to watch it at the cinema.
I purchased this item myself and the views expressed in this blog post are my own.
