Inspired by Legendary's Dune: Part Two, Denis Villeneuve's film adaptation of Frank Herbert's sci-fi masterpiece Dune, this meticulously crafted model truly encapsulates the essence of this iconic aircraft. The Atreides Onithopter, distinguished by its eight agile wings, delivers remarkable lift through rapid wing flaps. This feature not only facilitates vertical takeoffs and landings, but also provides exceptional maneuverability and speed in flight. Ingeniously designed, the ornithopter's wings can be retracted to allow for high-speed descents, preserving its signature agility.

This kit accurately captures the Atreides Ornithopter's intricate details, from its agile wings to its landing gear. Every part is carefully crafted to offer a highly realistic representation and provide maximum enjoyment during assembly.

Whether you're a loyal fan of Dune or a modeler with an endless imagination for the sci-fi world, this ornithopter model will be a highlight in your collection. It represents not only the technology of the future but also serves as a bridge connecting you to the vast, wondrous universe of Dune. Experience the joy of assembling this ornithopter, and let it soar on your bookshelf!
