    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    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.

    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.

    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.

    Dune: Part Two was originally scheduled to be released on November 3rd of this year before it was pushed back amid the various strikes that have impacted Hollywood productions.

    Director Denis Villeneuve has previously said he intends to end the Dune movie trilogy with an adaptation of Dune Messiah, which has tragically dashed my hopes of seeing this Baron minifig usurped by a larger, more horrifying replica of Leto II Atreides.
