Dune’s “Box of Pain” can now be purchased in a limited edition

Back in the day, disturbing action figures based on the 1980s David Lynch movie were sold, along with other merchandise curious. As an example, an entertaining coloring book, where children could amuse themselves by painting scenes as appropriate as the death of the duke Leto Atreides and Peter De Vries.

The Dune Coloring Book

All very educational, right?

Now, he joins that select club “The box of pain” that appears in the movies and in the booksand into which Paul reaches, at the behest of Reverend Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam, of the Bene-Gesserit.

A Twitter user has published the announcement of the same which, as can be seen, It is Limited edition and, besides, you can only find it at Wal-Martthe famous supermarket chain.

If we’ve learned anything from American movies, it’s that going there is a worse experience than going to the box itself.

What is the “pain box” test in Dune

In that test, Paul must keep his hand on the box and not withdraw it, enduring intense pain. With a poisoned needle grazing his neck (the famous gom jabbar), failing the test meant death.

However, Paul passes the test, and not only that. He is the first male to perform it, having a great time and arousing the Reverend Mother’s suspicion that Paul may indeed be the legendary Kwisatz Haderach.

Now you you can imitate paul and stick your hand in a pain box that, apparently, you better not take out any plane tickets to collect.

The same user has not only confirmed that the product really exists, but has also approached a Wal-Mart to verify that it is a plastic box, thin, cheap and shabby. Without anything special.

So better find something else to put your hand in or whatever you want, to recreate the adventures of Paul Atreides.
