Weta Announces More Dark Crystal Mini Epics, Shard Statue, and a Sale!

Weta announced they are expanding their Dark Crystal offerings with new Mini Epics of Aughra and Chamberlain, a Crystal Shard statue, and a sale on many of their previously released Labyrinth and Dark Crystal products!

The Crystal Shard

When single shines the triple sun,
What was sundered and undone,
Shall be whole, the two made one,
By Gelfling hand, or else by none.

Tasked by his master, the Mystic urSu, Jen sets out to find Aughra before the three suns of Thra converge. She reveals to him the origin of the Skeksis, brought when the Crystal was broken, entrusting him with taking the broken shard and restoring the Dark Crystal to its former state.

Aughra has many crystals, and only one is the true shard, but remembering the teachings of the Mystics, Jen plays a single note upon his firca flute; the true shard vibrating and glowing.

Before he can get more answers, Jen is forced to flee, as they are besieged by the fearsome Garthim...

FEATURES:

• 1:1 scale prop replica
  
  
• Crafted from crystal glass with internal faceting, faithfully recreating the unique qualities of the original prop
  
  
• Base features the iconography from the Crystal Chamber
  
  
• Light up base that illuminates the shard with its signature purple glow, powered by 3x LR41. (Batteries not included)

MINI EPICS: SKEKSIL THE CHAMBERLAIN

Be careful around this ‘friend’, he’s more treacherous than you can imagine.

All dissembling smiles and obsequious bows on the outside, this sinister plotter is rotten to the core. Responsible for many of the most devious plans the Skeksis ever came up with, this is one Mini Epic that we reckon you’re going to want to keep an eye on, mmmmmm? Imbued with life-giving essence by our expert artists, skekSil the Chamberlain Skeksis comes to your collection straight from the Castle of the Crystal, courtesy of Wētā Workshop.

FEATURES:

• Premium, stylised vinyl figure
  
  
• Most manipulative and cunning of all the Skeksis
  
  
• Dressed in his immaculately detailed original costume
  
  
• Greedily grasping the Skeksis Emperor’s staff in a daring but futile play for the throne
  
  
• Sculpted by Wētā Workshop’s Mini Epics Art Director, Mauro Santini.

MINI EPICS: AUGHRA

One can glean much wisdom from Aughra, provided you can understand her rambling words and riddling speech.

Follow the Greater Sun for a day to the home of Aughra and you will find a mess of perplexing tools and instruments scattered around an enormous revolving orrery. Ducking and weaving with ease through this moving chaos, Aughra remains as sharp as any shard in her collection, and our artists set to work to infuse all her might and mystery into our latest vinyl collectible.

FEATURES:

• Premium, stylised vinyl figure
  
  
• The physical embodiment of Thra, Mother Aughra
  
  
• Depicting Aughra in her iconic red dress
  
  
• Holding her removable eye, through which she can remotely explore the world of Thra
  
  
• Sculpted by Wētā Workshop’s Mini Epics Senior 3D Artist, Jorgelina Yeme
