Meng Models 1/72 Scale Dune Harkonnen Ornithopter Plastic Model Kit - MNG-DS009

MENG DS-007 Dune Atreides Ornithopter 1/72 Scale Plastic Model Kit

Take flight over the deserts of Arrakis with the MENG DS-007 Dune Atreides Ornithopter 1/72 Scale Plastic Model Kit. Inspired by the distinctive House Atreides aircraft seen in Dune, this impressive sci-fi model recreates the Ornithopter's unmistakable insect-like design, detailed cockpit, and complex multi-wing configuration in an eye-catching large-scale display piece.

Once assembled, the Atreides Ornithopter measures approximately 318 mm (12.5 inches) long with an expansive 720 mm (28.3 inches) wingspan. MENG's detailed engineering captures the aircraft's angular fuselage, cockpit structure, mechanical details, and eight-blade wing arrangement, making it an outstanding project for science-fiction modelers and Dune collectors alike.

The kit provides multiple display possibilities. Interchangeable landing gear components allow the Ornithopter to be configured for landed or in-flight presentation, while the wings can be rotated, retracted, unfolded, and positioned to recreate different configurations of the aircraft. A display stand is also included for showcasing the completed model in flight.

Four crew figures and transparent cockpit components add another layer of realism and detail to the finished build. Modelers can further enhance the kit with custom painting, washes, weathering, and desert dust effects to recreate the hard-used appearance of equipment operating across the sands of Arrakis.
