Brand new Dark Crystal tees for all you epic adventurers!

We always listen to our fans at TruffleShuffle and one of the most asked for requests has always been for Dark Crystal T-Shirts, so we are very pleased to announce the arrival of our first exclusive and official, own brand Dark Crystal tees!

The Dark Crystal is a 1982 fantasy film directed by the legendary Jim Henson and Frank Oz.  The storyline involved Jen, an elf like 'Gelfling' and his quest to restore balance to his fantasy world by returning a lost shard of the dark crystal back to the powerful but broken gem.  The film had a whole host of memorable characters including the Skesis, who were an evil race of grotesque birdlike lizards and who used to scare a generation of children enough to hide behind the sofa!  After work on the Dark Crystal had finished Henson and Oz's next project would turn out to be the film Labyrinth, one of TruffleShuffle's all time favourites!

This fab new Dark Crystal design focus on Kira and Jen, but also has appearances from other characters including Aughra the wild-haired seer, Urzah the mystical urRu and Fizzgig the loveable pet.  The ladies Dark Crystal tee is available in a sport grey colour for £19.99 and the mens Dark Crystal tee is in a darker Charcoal colour, also for £19.99.  It's the perfect chance to show your love for this classic film!

Last month's winner reviews her Labrynith t-shirt and bagged herself for some TruffleShuffle credit:

Being an '80s kid I have had the pleasure of growing up watching such Henson films as Labyrinth, with David Bowie and his bulge with the power to steal your gaze whenever it's on screen. I love this film, so much so that I have a tattoo of a goblin. However, I've always been dismayed that I couldn't show my love of the film with clothing, as I couldn't find anywhere making such magical apparel. So imagine my happiness when I discovered truffle shuffle! Oh, the pleasure, and the difficulty of choosing given the stock of so many awesome labyrinthian t-shirts! But I chose this shirt as my first (and not my last!) labyrinth order from truffle shuffle. It arrived faster than you can say 'dance magic dance' and now I wear my shirt of bowie and his bulge with pride. I have even had employees of particular well-known chain stores stop me to discuss labyrinth because of my shirt! I have since added to my growing collection of labyrinth tops with the blue hoggle tee, during a period when truffle shuffle was giving discounts on all their range. What a delightful retailer to buy from! They make everyday one worthy of bursting into song... so here I go... 'You remind me of the babe!'....
