Dune fans, brace yourselves. Mondo, the Austin-based art gallery and online store specializing in geeky collectibles, is releasing three gorgeous Dune posters, as well as an exclusive vinyl of music from the movie’s soundtrack.

The posters – each by a different artist – feature iconic imagery from Frank Herbert’s novel and Denis Villeneuve’s upcoming film adaptation. All of the posters are 24″x36″ screen prints and cost $60 each.

The planet Arrakis comes to life in three different (but equally beautiful) ways in Greg Ruth, Tradd Moore, and Akiko Stehrenberger’s artwork. Check out their takes on sandworms, Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet), and the Arrakeen desert below.

In addition to these posters, Mondo is partnering with Watertower Records to release an exclusive vinyl presentation of The Dune Sketchbook by Hans Zimmer. This is a one-time pressing of just 3000 units on 3XLP, costing $45.

The Dune Sketchbook clocks in at 100 minutes over the course of nine extended suites, each featuring Zimmer’s trademark epic flair. The score is split across three colored vinyl records, with each color representing a key planet in the Dune universe: Caladan, Giedi Prime, and, of course, Arrakis.

Take a look at Mondo’s vinyl presentation of The Dune Sketchbook, featuring artwork by Ruth and a foil stamped tri-fold jacket:
