Originally the character of Aughra was to have been a masculine creature called Habidabad, more animal-like with crab pincers, a high forehead and whiskers.
"I think she became a woman to add more feminine interest to the film. She also grew horns." - Lyle Conway (sculptor of Aughra)

Why The Dark Crystal?
It all started when I was six years old. I really wanted to see The Dark Crystal, but my parents wouldn't take me to the movies. It's not that they didn't care if I saw it, they just didn't want to go. I always remembered the picture of Jen on top of the Crystal, holding up the shard. I thought it was a microphone that he was singing into.
My grandparents recorded the movie when it aired on HBO and my siblings and I would watch it during every visit to their house. When I decided to borrow the movie, I never returned it. I eventually started to collect common merchandise here and there, but when I bought a computer and discovered the wonderful world of eBay, my collection never stopped growing.
In my opinion, The Dark Crystal is a complete work of art. It's a collaboration of every art form that exists. Everyone who worked on this movie put their lives into creating it's world. It is pure magic from the heart. I hope to keep this magic alive within the pages of this website.
