The Great Con-junction was an amazing experience and the most fun I’ve had in a while!
I didn’t get to take as many photos as I originally wanted to, but here are some pics from the museum!!
Not gonna lie I almost cried seeing these babies in person lol
Sorry I couldn’t get good pics of Deet, I swear she didn’t look this saturated to the naked eye but because of the purple light I couldn’t get a good angle 😭 she is cute nonetheless though!!
And if you wanted to know what Aughra and Fizzgig look like without hair, today’s your lucky day! (I didn’t think her head was this goddamn big but wow 😂)
And of course two of the evil bird bastards themselves
And my personal favorite, the real Wall of Destiny!!
There was so much more to marvel at; clothing from the fashion line inspired by the film, Gelfling and Podling headsculpts, fabrics used for Gelfling clothes, it was all wonderful and surreal to look at!
It’s also worth noting on the second day LISA HENSON walked in while I was there, I didn’t want to bother her but needless to say I was FLOORED
I will post more details here soon but if you want a bit more info (and some personal pics) go to my Insta (@loyal.maudra)! I can’t wait to share more as soon as I return home!!

I love the Dark Crystal. Watched all the time with my mom as a 6/7 yr old.
Once impressed a date by screaming at the top of my lungs like the Chamberlain. Then we smoked from their bong while we hid under some stairs on the shore.

The Jedi Temple in Evergreen Harbor
Oh! That temple Jack had meant! Vlad had already wondered when he noticed the bus was not heading for Mount Komorebi ^^'
Jack: "Oh, Vlad look! It's amazing!"
Old Twi'lek: "Hello there, my little friends. Come here, don't be afraid."
(That's what Obi Wan said to R2-D2 in 'A New Hope')
Old Twi'lek 2: "Welcome to the Temple. Go over, change your clothes and we can start right away!"
We've already seen them in those outfits in the 'The Four Horsemen' chapter :3 (with Luci instead of Vlad).
Proper outfitted, they went over to the Lightsaber Forge.
Vendor: "You are lucky! Soon we celebrate the 40th anniversary of Episode 6! You can choose between an X-Wing or a Thermal Detonator for free with the purchase of your Lightsaber!"
Jack: "Ohhh! Thermal Detonator!"
Vlad and Kiyoshi: "The X-Wing. For all of us. Thank you."
(They agree that a Thermal Detonator in the paws of instable Jack is no good idea.)
They went outside to install the Kyber Crystals into the shaft.
And then...
'Yes, this Lightsaber will finally kill Kiyoshi!'
So that was Jack's plan... sigh.
Wait - they don't allow him a Thermal Detonator but a Lightsaber is ok? Ö.ö'
Welcome to the dark side, Jack...
Background Theme: 'The Imperial March'
(with scenes from the movies)
TMI: The two old Twi'leks are played by Kesuke Miyagi (aka Albert at DEATH's Domain) and Dtui Ngyen (Kiyoshi's demon mentor)

Happy Dark Crystal Day, Thralings!
Today is The Dark Crystal’s 40th Anniversary!
To celebrate, I’ve got some very special stickers in my shop:
Crystal of Truth Rainbow Decals!
These are no ordinary stickers, but RAINBOW window decals that light up your whole room with rainbows when the sun hits them!
These are SUPER cool and I’m personally obsessed with them, so I’m really excited to finally be able to sell them :D
These are super limited, just for the 40th anniversary, and might not be restocked, so make sure to grab your own decal!
Grab a decal at my shop here:
Support me by buying me a Ko-Fi here:
The Crystal calls!!
