The LEGO® Royal Ornithopter is a meticulously crafted LEGO® set that represents an incredible opportunity for LEGO® investing, while simultaneously presenting an intricate display piece to go right on your bookcase. This set is not just about the build experience; it’s an immersive journey into the prototypical Atreides aerial vessel that defines Denis Villeneuve’s desert universe. It’s a LEGO® engineering masterpiece due to its foldout, flappable wings, and retractable landing gear, enhancing display and, of course, play.

Minifigures Are The Name Of The Game

Within this LEGO® icons set, Dune and LEGO® fans will receive eight detailed minifigures, bringing to life key characters from the Dune Saga: Paul Atreides, Lady Jessica, Gurney Halleck, Chani, Leto Atreides, Liet Kynes, Duncan Idaho, and the imposing Baron Harkonnen, each minifigure has unique printing (that you can only find in this set) and mirrors their movie counterparts. These figures will inevitably drive up the set’s investment potential and collectible demands – plus the Baron Harkonnen minifigure has a torso the length of four minifigures that will never be made again!

If You Solely Want To Build The Ornithopter

The Dune Atreides Royal Ornithopter flexes its wings in a way that brings a new level of awe to the LEGO® Icons theme. Whether showcased in mid-flight dynamism or poised gracefully in landing mode with its retractable landing gear, it captures the ability of LEGO® to put science fiction into builds we can’t wait to get our hands on. This set not only pays homage to the series and movie’s fans but also serves as an incredible gift for Spice lovers, encapsulating Frank Herbert’s incredible world-building lore (Denis Villeneuve is no different).

What Makes The Dune Ornithopter So Special?

These aren’t your ordinary sci-fi aircraft; they come with jet assistance and wings that move in all directions, making them perfect for both taking off and touching down – anywhere. Herbert paints a picture of these machines as incredibly nimble, easily darting through the desert skies and flapping their wings like birds when needed. What’s really cool about the Ornithopters is their flexibility – they can hover in place with VTOL capabilities or glide through the air with ease, adapting effortlessly to whatever the situation calls for.

I Highly Recommend Grabbing This Set Before The Movie Comes Out

Adult Fans of LEGO® are offered a sophisticated project that engages master builders in the intricate world of LEGO® construction and the Dune Universe. With 1,369 pieces, the model’s impressive dimensions—over 9 inches high, 22 inches long, and 31 inches wide with wings flexed outwards—speak to its grandeur and the 2-3 hours you will spend building this set and asking, “when will LEGO® come out with more Dune sets?”

Maybe right after Dune Part II!
