In 2009, as part of their "Cult Classics" line, NECA produced this highly detailed action figure based on SkekSil, the chamberlain Skeksis, from The Dark Crystal.
The figure is the only character from the 1981 film to get a major action figure likeness. Hasbro had plans to release a line of Dark Crystal action figures to coincide with the film, but were never mass produced.
The figure is also noteworthy because besides Beetlejuice, it is the only other character
in the line from a PG rated film. All the others consisted mainly of characters from horror
movies or R rated movies such as Evil Dead 2, The Exorcist, Child's Play, and Hellraiser.
This figure can be found pretty easily online and at conventions, though as one of the more sought after characters in the line, it regular sells for around $90.
