Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures' Blockbuster ‘Dune: Part Two’ is Currently in Theaters Worldwide
MENG is set to unveil the DS-009 1/72 Dune Harkonnen Ornithopter model kit, licensed from Legendary Entertainment. Inspired by Legendary's Dune: Part Two, filmmaker Denis Villeneuve's big screen adaptation of Frank Herbert's sci-fi masterpiece DUNE, this meticulously crafted model, now available as an intricately designed kit, truly encapsulates the essence of this iconic aircraft. The Harkonnen Onithopter, distinguished by its six 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.
The remarkable flying machine is a prized addition for Dune fans and a new challenge for modelers. This kit accurately captures the Harkonnen Ornithopter's intricate details, from its wings to its landing gear. Every part is carefully designed to offer a highly realistic representation and provide maximum enjoyment during assembly.
The model has a wingspan of 626mm and a length of 293mm once assembled. This kit includes four crew figures, transparent parts for the cockpit canopy, and a display stand. Let's check the details.
