Weta Workshop is excited to dive into the world of Thra and create premium collectibles for the prequel series, The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance, which tells a new story, set many years before the events of the 1982 movie.When three Gelfling uncover the horrific truth behind the power of the Skeksis, the fires of rebellion are kindled and an epic battle for survival begins.OUR DARK CRYSTAL COLLECTIBLESSo rich and visionary was Jim Henson’s 1982 passion project that it inspired dreamers across the creative arts, including a whole generation of film effects artists now working at Weta Workshop. Released at a time when many of our crew were young and beginning to explore their own creative energies, The Dark Crystal was an eye-opener: it was possible to bring imaginary worlds to life, and it could be a career!For years, those of us who had fallen in love with this world hoped that someday Thra might return to our screens. Thanks to Netflix, it has, and now we have the chance to express our fandom by creating super faithful, highly detailed collectible figures and prop replicas from The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance.A young Gelfling warrior in the Castle of the Crystal, Rian aspires someday to be captain of the Guard, like his father Ordon.Brave and kind, he carries a deep love for his friend and fellow guard Mira, but a terrible discovery will turn his life upside down, tear his heart in two and see him flee his once carefree home, forsaking vows of service and family.Beyond the castle Rian will be an outlaw, hunted through the riven wilderness to bury the dark truth he knows and preserve the cruel Skeksis’ rule. Vast distances he must travel, a conspiracy he must unmask, and new friends he must enlist if there is to be any hope for him and all who live in the world of Thra.Rian the Gelfling joins Weta Workshop’s exquisitely detailed line of Dark Crystal collectibles, a line that pays homage to the richly layered, fantastical world of Thra.SPECIAL BASE DESIGNThe three different sized circular bases across our 1:6 scale Dark Crystal range represent the Three Suns in the skies of Thra; the dying sun, rose sun, and great sun. Familiar iconography from the floor of the Crystal Chamber are featured around the outside. Spy the symbols of the urSkek, which have since been appropriated as signs of discord and Skeksis aggression.Features:
