Dark Crystal: The Age of Resistance - 1:1 Scale Prop Replica
The grim fruit of malignant science, essence vials were small glass receptacles into which were distilled the drained life essences of captured Gelflings. A cruel invention of the Skeksis Scientist, SkekTek, essence draining was accomplished by strapping captives into a device which used the power of the sickening Crystal to suck from them their vital energies, collecting them in liquid form. These delicate flasks of life force were greedily consumed by the pernicious Skeksis, thereby artificially extending their own long, thin lives. The act was a vile betrayal of the power of the Crystal and of the Gelflings, who trusted their draconic lords with its custodianship and their own safety. The uncovering of this secret crime and its consequences will shake the foundations of Thra. The 1/1-scale Essence Vial joins Weta Workshop's exquisitely detailed range of Dark Crystal collectibles; a range that pays homage to the richly layered, fantastical world of Thra.
