Lego’s flapping Dune Ornithopter set comes with a big boi Baron minifig

If you’re bummed about Dune: Part Two being delayed until March 15th, 2024, Lego’s latest Icons set might be the ideal fix to tide you over. The Dune Atreides Royal Ornithopter — a 1,369-piece replica of the Imperium’s favored flapping flying machine — is now available to preorder for $164.99, with a release date set for February 1st, 2024.

While both the Dune (2021) and upcoming Dune: Part Two movies have PG-13 ratings, this Lego set is a “premium-quality” model designed for adults. When assembled, it features flappable fold-out wings, deployable landing gear, and a cockpit that can be opened to place in one of the eight included mini figurines of the franchise’s cast.

Well, at least seven of the characters anyway. The Atreides Royal Ornithopter set comes with Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet), Lady Jessica (Rebecca Ferguson), Gurney Halleck (Josh Brolin), Chani (Zendaya), Leto Atreides (Oscar Isaac), Liet-Kynes (Sharon Duncan-Brewster), and Duncan Idaho (Jason Momoa), none of which should have an issue fitting inside the model.

The eighth “mini figurine” — Baron Vladimir Harkonnen (Stellan Skarsgård) — is donning the same laughably long robe as his movie counterpart, making him roughly four times taller than the other figurines. I can’t decide if his proportions bring me joy or immense discomfort. It’s truly a Lego set that follows Frank Herbert’s vision.
