In our Lego Icons Dune Atreides Royal Ornithopter review, this thing scored a 4.5 star rating thanks to its fancy moving wings, unique design, and lack of stickers. The latter means all the greebles are actual printed pieces rather than boring 2D detailing. And it really looks magnificent with those wings splayed out. With a translucent cockpit, you can even see the minifigures sitting in the pilot seat.

Speaking of which, there are a heap of minis coming along with the Ornothopter, too: Paul Atreides, Lady Jessica, Gurney Halleck, Chani, Leto Atreides, Liet Kynes, Duncan Idaho, and even the longboi Baron Harkonnen in his hilarious trailing robe.

He most certainly won’t fit in the cockpit, but does he even need to fly? The man’s almost always taking a bath anyway.
