Mik and Starlos, I discovered your channel specifically through this review and I must thank you for the fun and informative, bright, cheery and family-friendly video experience. God bless you!

If you want the cosmetic upgrade, it's only available on order on their site. They don't have plans yet to go retail with the component upgrade. Same with the sleeves

I love Dune so much, even just watching people play this game makes me happy!

You can probably tell from my username that I'm like Mik: a huge Dune fan. I've read 18 of the books. I can't wait to play this game (and I'm so sad the movie had to be postponed for a year!).

You guys are the most lovely, instantly likable reviewers I've seen on YouTube :) New subscriber from the UK !

Just finished reading the original 6 novels in 2020 after years of saying that I always wanted to. The novels were great and this game looks really really cool and fun. Thanks of the video

This game looks amazing! Can’t wait! And might I add that you two deliver the presentation with such joy and energy, I would love to play games with your group! Video was very nicely done!

Subscribed to your channel. I generally don't say stuff like this, because ultimately we are all the same and it doesn't matter... but it is REALLY cool to see ethnic variety in board gaming channels. As a POC myself its nice to see :) Boardgaming brings us all together. Love your Dune love - amazing series. Love your overview and passion. Hope your channel takes off :)

Looks great! I like Clank already and I am long time Dune fan. Thanks for sharing this, I can see a lot of potential in this game with some serious competition and hard choices to be made.

[fishyeggs]

Real excited for this one. We love the books and have the update of the of the original game too. This one looks pretty sweet!

[Ironfrenzy]

I love Dune! I can't wait until I get a firm grasp on the rules!
Thanks!

[shloop]

Great video, you guys are a blast to watch.

[steveorourke]

Love seeing you get so excited about all things Dune, Mik! We played the updated version of the original game and I liked it. This game might be closer to my preferences for game play and length. Thanks for another great video!

[LordoftheBoard]

Mik! We’re in the same boat brotha. I am stoked for this. Dune is good 👏🏽👏🏽

[yoonkl]

Top notch production! I hope you are getting paid by the publisher!!!

[johngoodwin]

Currently re-reading the first Dune book in preparation for the film - maybe for this game too.

[reytheist]

My wife and I are big Dune fans, so we're hyped for it. It's a really good sign that they're already planning to bling it out. The publisher thinks it has legs. Take care, fam!

[rchaines]

First time coming across your channel and it was an instant subscribe! I'm excited about this one and wanted to learn how it plays and LOVE how you two teach the game. It's like I'm sitting there with you learning. I want to come play games with you all! I'm a solo gamer so I love that I finally get a Dune game I can play. Hoping the solo plays out well. Thanks for doing this!

Love that Mik has read all the books. I haven't read all of them yet but I am listening through them again. Just about to finish Children of Dune.
