Weta Jareth and Sarah in the Illusionary Maze Statue!

Weta unveiled another statue in their Labyrinth line featuring Jareth and Sarah in the Illusionary Maze. 



The 1:6 scale, incredibly detailed statue, is a Limited Edition of 500 and is the most expensive Henson statue Weta has released to date. 


With just 5 minutes left, Sarah is closer to retrieving Toby than she’s ever been before. Chasing after the absent Goblin King, she climbs a flight of stairs only to find herself trapped in an Escher-like maze, where up and down have no consequence or bearing.
The Goblin King, Jareth, traverses the intertwining stairways without restraint, defying gravity itself as he taunts and beguiles our desperate heroine, pointing out the location of the child beyond her grasp. No matter where she goes or what direction she takes, Toby is always just out of reach, and time continues to run thin within this illusionary maze.

Wētā Workshop sculptor Jane Wenley create the statue with a back panel 3D bas relief, creating the signature illusionary maze.



The statue even has some playability as Baby Toby can be displayed upright, or defy gravity upside down.



As you can see when seen next to a person, it's also a fairly large.


Check out Weta's video showing the making of statue:


The statue is scheduled to be released in early 2023.


You can preorder it it directly from Weta for $1,199.00 or from Big Bad Toy Store for 
$1,249.99. Each requires a 15% non-refundable deposit at the time of order.
