Looks similar, but doesn't work the same I was really excited to find this star, since my mom still has her original, and I wanted to re-create my childhood for my daughter, remembering when I would lay on the floor and watch the colored stars dance across the walls and ceiling...however, this star does not throw out the colors, and what white light it does throw out does not go very far....it looks very similar; but compared with the original, I can see some differences without taking it apart...and there must be even more differences, since there are no colors on the wall or ceiling...rather disappointed overall; but like I said, it looks similar; so if that is all you are looking for, go ahead and purchase... :) I'm hoping this manufacturer will come up with something that not only resembles the original, but actually acts like it, too...let me know ASAP if they do!

Color - Changing Star I love it, I put it on a box because my tree was little this year. I loved the way it put lights on the celing and how it sparkles. I gave it a average because the back of the light kept coming off and so did the bottom but other than than I loved it. December 26, 2012
Brightening my daughter's life. Due to to diabetis my 43yr. old daughter is legally blind. She always loved her grandmother's tree topper, then our tree topper and wanted one for her tree. Her boyfriend found this topper in your catalog and immediately had me order it. The surprise was exactly what we expected. She loves the lights. This made her Christmas and ours. Thank you for offering this at a reasonable price. December 21, 2012
Very unlike "original" produce I owned one of the original 50's/60's tree toppers and loved it. I really hoped to be able to add the same touch to my tree top through this item. However, it is much too heavy to mount on most tree-tops and the transformer that is necessary to use the light adds to the difficulty of putting it on a tree. The colors do not compare with the "original" model. I will keep it and perhaps be able to use it somewhere in my decorating next year. The difficulty is that there is no on/off switch so it has to be located somewhere that it can be unplugged or turned off by means of a switch. December 12, 2012
Remembering Pop-Pop I remember always sitting and watching the colors as they revolved around our living room. It was like being in a dream world. It was given to us by my Pop-Pop. When I grew older and had a home of my own the "special" Christmas Star was passed on to me. By this time it was at least 25 years old. So now a 2nd generation experienced the same feelings that I felt as a child. My own children. Well in the process of moving our "Special Christmas Star" was lost. It has taken me 10 years to finally find it. I was so excited I started to cry. Thank you Vermont Country Store for giving me back my special memories of my Pop-Pop. My very best friend.

Sweet Memories My brother bought a tree topper just like this one for my parents when I was a very little girl. I remember how much I loved it each year. When my parents passed away my brother gave the tree topper to me. Unfortunately, it was broken. My husband and I have tried to fix it, but it was beyond repair. I have never thrown it away. It has moved with me everywhere we've gone. I was thrilled to see this tree topper in your catalog. I have spend most of my adult life looking for one. This will bring my childhood memories back to life, and hopefully bring some wonderful ones for my grandchildren. Thank you for making it again!!!!!! November 21, 2012

What Our Customers Are Saying about Our Color-Changing Star Tree Topper …

"For our first Christmas in 1967, my husband and I bought this star for our tree. We have often tried to buy a new one to replace this poor 41-year-old bedraggled tree topper, but my children have refused to let us. This is the first time we have ever seen it offered, so I'm buying it for us all. I can't tell you how excited my husband and I were when I found it on the first page of your winter catalog. Thank you so much for allowing us to continue this tradition on our and our sons' trees. We can't wait to place the new one on the tree this year." - Maryl Gavazzi, Grand Island, NY

""I spent 20 years of looking for this tree top. I have traveled around the world for my work, and I would look in every city I went for somthing similar to the tree top my husband and I bought in 1966. My dear friend in Alaska who reads every catalog made found this for me and had it shipped. I was in heaven when I opened it. I used it last year, and my children were surprised to not see the top that was so old and taped together but still working. I told them we had a new one for the next 45 years. I also bought one for my son and his wife this year. The only problem we have had is trying to get replacement bulbs. My bulb burnt out and it is difficult to find. A 12 Volt, 8 Watt halogen bulb. My grandson tried the big box home funishing stores and three hardware stores. I even tried to find it at an electrial store. With no success. I would be very grateful if somewone could tell me where I can find it. We had to resort to the old tree top for CHRISTmas day but that was OK. I am already looking forward to next year with my new tree top back in place.Thank you so much." - Donna Manuel, Amissville, VA

"We had the Celestial Star when I was little, and out of all the tree toppers we had over the years, it was always my favorite. I was delighted to come across this modern version last year. It's not exactly the same as the old Bradford but it's close enough to give me a warm 'n fuzzy feeling when I turn it on. " - Storko, Poughkeepsie, NY
