Funko has been transforming the sands of Arrakis into collectible vinyl figures for years. With ‘Dune: Part Two’, the company launched a collection featuring Chani in a shawl wielding a sword and a battle-ready Paul Atreides with his striking blue-within-blue eyes. Now, the toy manufacturer is back with a fresh lineup tied to the final chapter of Denis Villeneuve’s trilogy.

That chapter, ‘Dune: Part Three‘, is set to hit theaters on Dec. 18, 2026, coinciding with the release of ‘Avengers: Doomsday’, which GamesRadar has dubbed Dunesday. Warner Bros. will present the film in IMAX, adapting Frank Herbert’s 1969 novel ‘Dune Messiah’, which covers roughly the latter half of the book. Villeneuve aims for this to be the concluding film in his Paul Atreides trilogy.

The storyline unfolds nearly two decades after Paul took control of the Imperium, with the Emperor now facing the repercussions of his reign. Old allies return, new threats arise, and betrayal lurks at every turn. This tone is precisely what the new figures aim to encapsulate.

The designs are visually striking. Paul is depicted in a long tan coat with the blue-within-blue eyes of a Fremen, while Chani wields a blade and bears a scar across her face. Alia’s figure stands out, adorned with blood-red splatter and a white hooded outfit, complete with glowing blue eyes.

DuneInfo also reported that the first wave includes a Funko Pop! Moments figure of Paul riding a sandworm, while a second wave will showcase Funko Pop! Movies figures of Paul and Hayt. A retailer listing describes the Alia vinyl figure as approximately 4 inches tall.

The bloody Alia figure is generating significant buzz among fans, and for good reason. Anya Taylor-Joy made a brief appearance as Alia in ‘Dune: Part Two’, and she returns in a more substantial role for the finale. Inverse highlighted that the first trailer teased her as a fully grown adult who has gained power as a religious figure.

In the narrative, Alia is Paul’s younger sister and the daughter of the late Duke Leto Atreides. Her mother consumed the Water of Life while pregnant, resulting in Alia being pre-born and possessing the memories of previous Reverend Mothers. This unique origin makes her one of the most intriguing characters in the saga, and the Funko design embraces her unsettling nature.

Timothée Chalamet returns as Paul, Zendaya as Chani, and Jason Momoa reprises his role as Hayt, a ghola created in the likeness of the deceased swordmaster Duncan Idaho. Florence Pugh returns as Princess Irulan, Rebecca Ferguson as Lady Jessica, and Javier Bardem as Stilgar, with Robert Pattinson joining as the antagonist Scytale. Nakoa-Wolf Momoa and Ida Brooke portray Paul and Chani’s twin children, Leto II and Ghanima.

The film is set to run for 165 minutes, according to Movie Insider. It has already gained traction at the box office, with Looper reporting that ‘Dune: Part Three’ has earned $10 million in wider pre-sale releases, putting it in a tight competition with ‘Avengers: Doomsday’ for the biggest weekend of the holiday season.

For collectors, the timing is significant. The figures are being released as the franchise approaches its conclusion, and many fans will likely want to add a piece of the final chapter to their collections. With Paul, Chani, and Alia all receiving new designs, the set captures the essence of the three central characters.

The more pressing question is how much of the plot the toys may reveal. The bloody Alia design suggests a darker trajectory for the trilogy, and the film is expected to clarify her fate. Until December, collectors will have to make do with the vinyl figures.
