02 January 2024
Soon you will be able to enjoy the first building experience from the Dune universe. The Denis Villeneuve-based film adaptation of Frank Herbert's masterpiece. Namely, the LEGO® Icons Dune™ Atreides Royal Ornithopter, bringing one of the most iconic aircraft from the sci-fi epic to life in LEGO® form.
As part of the new 1,369-piece building experience, fans of Dune™ can recreate the dynamic, dragonfly-inspired design of an Ornithopter, with functional blades on the aircraft that can flap and retract with a 180-degree rotation.
The LEGO Icons Dune™ Atreides Royal Ornithopter is 23 cm high, 57 cm long and 79 cm wide and has a collapsible landing gear. The set comes with eight all-new LEGO minifigures of key characters from Dune™, including Paul Atreides, Lady Jessica, Gurney Halleck, Chani, Leto Atreides, Liet Kynes, Duncan Idaho and Baron Harkonnen in his long robe.
New movie
The LEGO Icons Dune™ Atreides Royal Ornithopter is a great display model for fans of Frank Herbert's original Dune novels or Denis Villeneuve's recent film franchise, with Dune: Part Two™ running in cinemas from 15 March 2024.
