The Dark Crystal: Age of Resistance Prop Replica Essence Vial 12 cm

A sinister fruit of evil science, essence vials were small glass vessels into which the drained life essences of captured Gelflings were distilled. A cruel invention of the Skeksis scientist, SkekTek, essence drainage was achieved by strapping prisoners to a device that used the power of the Nauseous Crystal to suck their life energies from them, collecting them in liquid form. These delicate flasks of life force were consumed greedily by the pernicious Skeksis, thus artificially prolonging their long, thin lives. The act was a vile betrayal of the Crystal's power and the Gelflings, who trusted their draconic masters for its safekeeping and their own safety. The discovery of this secret crime and its consequences will shake the very foundations of Thra. The Essence Vial joins Weta Workshop’s exquisitely detailed range of Dark Crystal collectibles; a range that pays homage to the richly layered and fantastical world of Thra. CHARACTERISTICS: - 1:1 scale replica of the prop; - Made of glass and resin; - Unique LED lighting to replicate the radiant essence seen on screen.
