Now here's a Christmas tree I can relate to: a 21" exact replica of Charlie Brown's pathetic tree before it was magically turned into something completely different by some energetic arm-waving.
It's yours for $24. Good grief. But I like it. And no, the psychiatrist is not in.

The Peanuts specials are still all around favorites in our house. This tree is awesome.
i'd pay $50 for it.
highway robbery! good grief. Urban Outfitters thats why, duh, to be cool and hip these days you must continue to spend outrageous amounts of mula.
Hey, I saw that thing 2 days ago, doesn't it come with Linus's blanket too? Teh box had something blue and fuzzy in it. Matsayz is right, it's an expensive rip-off, but the Peanuts still rock!
The tree IS awesome, but I saw the thing yesterday - didn't it come with Linus's blue blanket too?, it's just not complete without the blanket.
UO has interesting stuff, but the place is way to metrosexual/hipster hell to stand in for more then 10 minutes...
I love it, I remember watching christmas cartoons on TV when I was a kid, and yes I admit I used to laugh at charlie browns tree....but now it seems like something I actually want....it's a peice of my childhood
Sorry for the double post...bad wireless hotspot..thought I lost it
"I never get want I want for christams. All I ever get is the latest ipods, comptuer backups, and latest video game consoles. What I want is real eastate"
Me too I never get what I want for "christams." Seriously though, Charlie Brown hanging that ball on that pathetic tree is one of the most singularly depressing scenes in all of Christmas Special-dom.
Aw Fuuuuuuudge! I did not use spell checker! :(
I just got mine delivered the other day, It really doesnt look as good in real life as in the UO pics.
I tried to pick up one of these trees last week and they didn't have any. I could probably build one for 5 bucks but this one folds up and no mess. Worth $25? Probably not but still a great idea.
Maybe all it needs is a little love...
I love all the comments stating the $25 is too much. Can someone tell me something Christmas related that isn't a total waste of money? We received this as gift last year and it will be the only thing we put up to celebrate the fourth quarter shopping holiday FKA Christmas.
Obviously whoever's hawking this failed to grasp the message of the Charlie Brown special...

One other thing: Couldn't Urban Outfitters at least photoshop out the reflection of the photographer in the red ball? And he's hand holding the freakin' camera too...
I bought the tree. I love it.
Fun Christmas fact: People generally start to talk about and celebrate Christmas as soon as Halloween is done. This means that 2/12 months is consumed by Christmas. Now, I'm no math major, but if you convert that figure into days, and don't forget to carry the 1, it follows that 1/6 days of your entire life are related to Christmas...
