In order to produce the most accurate replica of this iconic ship, a number of different reference resources were used.  More than 90% of the model kit parts that were used on the original model were identified.  A digital scan of a TIE Fighter model in the Lucasfilm archives, was used to map the parts, verify the dimensions and scratch build the model kit parts that either could not be found or identified.  An original TIE Fighter that is known to have been used in the filming of Star Wars: Episode IV: A New Hope was used to match the correct colors.

- Edition Size 657 pieces

- Measures approximately 13-3/4" Wide X 14-/18 Deep X 17-3/4" Tall

- Scanned from an original model

- Screen accurate screen colors

- High quality resin, injection molded ABS and machined metal construction

- LED lighting effects

- Numbered plaque

- Museum quality rectangular base

- Prop Story/Certificate of Authenticity

Serg, did you get one of these yet? Pat and I saw these at C5 and wow were they gorgeous, highly detailed. At $1,000 they had better be.

Looking forward to seeing that cabinet too. I wonder if eFX will make a Walker?

Hopefully the new cabinet will be ready at the end of February, before my bday. eFX declared twice that they will not make another AT-AT. Maybe they will consider an AT-ST some day though, but with their huge delays, it most likely will be released for my grandsons...
