Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that LEGO’s logo for ‘DUNE’ is made out of minifigure hands.
Alongside the Ornithopter—which has foldable wings and deployable landing gears—the set comes with eight figures based on the first of Villeneuve’s Dune movies. The list includes Duncan Idaho and Paul Atreides in their training gear, Lady Jessica in her golden masked dress, Gurney Halleck, Chani, Leto Atreides, and Liet Kynes in their Stillsuits, and then perhaps the highlight of them all: Stellan Skarsgård’s Baron Harkonnen, who comes with his own translucent stand and a very long flowing fabric robe, to pose him ascending on his suspensor belt like he does in the movie:
Incredible. Absolutely incredible.
The Lego Dune Ornithopter won’t release until February 1, 2024—just over a month before Dune: Part Two’s new March 2024 release date. It’ll cost you $165, and is available for pre-order now, which Lego doesn’t usually do for some of its big brand sets like this… perhaps an indicator that the company could’ve been ready for Part Two’s original release date. Alas, we’ll have to while the time away pondering our Arrakis, our Dune, and these promo pictures while we wait.
LEGO has just revealed the 10327 Dune Atreides Royal Ornithopter, one of the most exciting sci-fi sets ever! Dune has to be one of the most frequently requested licenses, and you’ll soon be able to own your very own LEGO Icons ‘thopter that’s inspired by Denis Villeneuve’s sci-fi epic
The 1,369-piece LEGO Dune Ornithopter will released exclusively on 1 February from LEGO.com or your local LEGO Store, and will be priced at a very respectable US$164.99. While it’s a bit of a wait to get your hands on this, you can pre-order it now from LEGO.com.
