After already building one of these TIE models (found the kit in HobbyCraft), I've bought this second one to kitbash and scratch build a Darth X1 TIE using the main body cockpit as the basis for the X1, and planning on using Plasticard + 3D printed parts to create correct scale. The extra wing foils will help out too create the 2nd TIE that got shot by Han in the trench run scene. Only real downside to this kit and the X-Wing & Darth X1 Tie is that all the scales are different so making a good scale diorama is more difficult straight out the box However, get some 1mm SMD leds, some 0.5mm plastic coated copper and your soldering iron out you can light up one of these pretty easily, and the detail of the kit is great compared to earlier AMT / ERTL kits. Goes together well, sprays nice (Halfords primer good for this), and the size is bigger than expected (but not too big to take up loads of room)Read full review

Great kit, nice and simple for a experienced maker but straight forward enough for a novice. painting is in blocks but theres enough detail in the actual model too make it something special if your painting skills are up too picking out those details
