* Orders for Mother Aughra were open for a strictly limited time from December 4 – 18, 2019. The edition size of 360 was determined by the total number of orders made during this period.
Aughra is Thra. And Thra is Aughra. Aughra has spent years looking to the skies. She took her eye off of Thra with the understanding that the Skeksis would maintain her world just the way she left it. But when the Skeksis began corrupting the Crystal even more by draining Gelfling, Aughra feels the brunt of that corruption physically. She is Thra. So when Thra starts to die, so does Aughra. Tapping back into the world by relearning the Song of Thra, Aughra attempts to save the Gelfling and guides the main heroes on their paths.
Sculpted in 1/6 scale, this limited edition polystone statue pays tribute to a wizened, ram-horned, maternal oracle from The Dark Crystal as she is reborn, in her intricately detailed and iconic red dress. Aughra is seen peering through the symbol of the Great Conjunction, as she turns her eye towards stars, fate and the future. Prototype sculpted by Weta Workshop sculptor Gary Hunt.
“I wanted to pay homage to both the series & the original film by incorporating Aughra’s iconic amulet into her pose. I was over the moon that Netflix used our work in the first episode to explain how the Skeksis arrived & distracted Aughra by turning her eye to the stars.”
