An Amazing Set
on May 26, 2024
Posted by: Mr Prime
Overall Thoughts:
The set was an absolute pleasure to build, looks phenomenal, and is a proper size. All the internal mechanisms to deploy/retract the landing gear and fold/unfold/flap the wings were a joy to build and function perfectly. The tail section is also very rigid and can easily support all the weight even holding it as a cantilever.

Minor Complaints:
The biggest is that the wings are made from soft plastic and are all bowed in the same direction. I've tried gently bending them backwards, but they always settle back to their curved shape. Quite unfortunate since the set looks simply fantastic when all the wings are flat. The second complaint is that when your using the mechanism to flap the wings, the gear spine part bumps into the piece behind it and always knocks it off. That, however, is a nonissue as I was able to correct it myself.

Afterthoughts:
If I had two things to add to the set it would be to have a small compartment (or similar) for the minifigs tools or weapons. Lastly some spring blasters would be great since these ships do have armaments! Other than that, it truly is an absolutely fantastic set for play or display!

Great set for play and display
on April 23, 2024

I built the ornithopter last week and was suprised at how complex the building experience was. I had watched a few reviews on the product beforehand, and while I knew that it was mostly Technic based, the intricacies of the inside of the model were surprising. Opening the wings once the ship was built is one of the craziest experiences I’ve had building LEGO, the sheer size of the ship was jaw dropping. Colors on the connectors to the blades are an issue, but there’s a guy on youtube who put out a list of the parts you need to replace most of the visible ones for less that four dollars, which is definitely worth it in my opinion. Overall a very well designed set.

Best set this year.

Almost a perfect set. Only thing I wish was different are some of the different colors around the wings. Wish it was all black or greyed out.

Difficult!

This set is kind of worth the price. You can buy bigger sets for the same money, but this one has most of the main characters and the ornithopter is insane. One thing I’ll say, this build didn’t take a day. It didn’t take two days. It took a few days of frustration; not every single step was on the page you kinda had to assume where stuff went, so a lot of the time I’d go to the next bag just to find out I did something wrong that I already built on top of. This is a very challenging set. Hope more sets are made for Dune!

Good Set, poor technic color choices

Good set and build experience, wish they had used black technic pins and grey ones instead of the red ones because they make the set look funny if you don't replace them.

Mileage May Vary

This set is a great display piece, but may not be for everyone. Your enjoyment of this set will hinge on how willing you are to let the technic side of this dominate the appearance. As a Dune fan though, I love the display elements, as well as the exceptional functionality of the set. The technics add way more than they take away in my opinion
