That was fast. Waiting for CultTVMan to ship. They did have the Harlkonnen for pre-order.

Same. Added the Harkonnen to my preorders.
Hope Meng upscales the other Dune models they have!

Yeah, I wasn’t expecting to see it for a couple months. Actually built most of it today in a couple hours. The fit is perfect. I only had issue with one part that was so thin an a edge that after cleaning the nub and then glueing,melted it too much but a thin piece of plastruct and some extra thin cement fixed it. The whole thing will need next to no filler, maybe around the cockpit, but careful use of cement may make it unnecessary. The figures are some of the best I have ever seen. Through a mag the faces actually look like the actors. Gonna start painting tomorrow!
They are all wearing stillsuits too, that makes things a bit easier. LOL

I have just about finished this guy up. It’s a weekend build which is nice as all my other stuff on the bench are long painfull builds. I just need to do a sandy wash, put in the windows and it will be done. I will try to get a pic or two tomorrow. I just pressed my luck and ordered the Harkonnen version from China as well.
