The Dark Crystal Appraisal

The Dark Crystal DVD + Bonus Digital Copy

This item is a standard DVD case containing a copy of Jim Henson's classic fantasy film, 'The Dark Crystal.' The case itself is made of black plastic, typical for DVD packaging, and features a printed paper insert serving as the cover art. The dominant colors of the cover are dark red for the border and a deep, mystical blue-black for the central image. The title 'Jim Henson's The Dark Crystal' is prominently displayed in a stylized, golden font, indicative of a fantasy genre. Below the title, the main characters of the film, Jen and Kira, along with their animal companions Aughra and Fizzgig, are depicted in an evocative, surreal art style. The phrase 'A ONE-OF-A-KIND IMAGINATIVE MARVEL' is quoted on the lower part of the cover, attributed to 'The Washington Post,' suggesting critical acclaim. In the upper left corner, there's a small 'Jim Henson's Family' logo. Above the main artwork, a banner clearly states 'DVD + BONUS DIGITAL COPY,' indicating a dual-format release. At the bottom center, the 'DVD VIDEO' logo is visible. The overall condition appears to be good, with no obvious major damage, tears, or significant creasing to the paper insert. Minor scuffs or shelf wear on the plastic case are possible but not clearly discernible from the image alone. The packaging style and inclusion of a digital copy suggest a relatively modern re-release, likely from the 2000s or 2010s, rather than the original VHS or initial DVD release.
