mutley777 Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 here is a short review of the new mini tie :) First of all with a set of this size it is vital to sort out the parts into the right colours :D After a very quick but quite fun build the tie is done. And the back. As you can see from this picture the TIE is a good size Only a couple of parts left at the end. Well that's it! A good little set with good parts too. (well i do like the minis ) Quote
mutley777 Posted January 2, 2009 Author Posted January 2, 2009 Where did you get this? I picked it up from BL about 2 months ago. I did a review back then on BH but i only just noticed there was not one here. Quote
KimT Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 I picked it up from BL about 2 months ago. I did a review back then on BH but i only just noticed there was not one here. Ahh.. Thanks for posting it here as well. I've added it to the index and also added a poll. A neat little Tie..now excuse me, I am off to get this from BL Quote
Legoman Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 (edited) Yes i saw it there Fine review! Thanks I Can't wait to find one of these.

I've added it to the index and also added a poll. A neat little Tie..now excuse me, I am off to get this from BL ... Well, good luck - lucky you to find one availible to you.

Derek Posted January 2, 2009 Posted January 2, 2009 Ah, I thought it looked familiar. Thanks for sharing with us. Quote
Big Pete Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 I Can't wait to find one of these. Cheapest i can find is $13 on BL (which i would probably still buy... if he accepted paypal ) that seller has loads too ... but he's only sold a few because he's in Russia and doesn't accept Paypal. I don't trust Western Union as far as I can throw it. Quote
mutley777 Posted January 3, 2009 Author Posted January 3, 2009 Well i was quite lucky as i bought mine from a seller in the Netherlands who only had 1. Quote
xenologer Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Thanks for the review. Not much of a SW fan but it's a cute little desktop model. I would Never pay 13$ for something that only costs 5$ on LDD: LDD Purchase Quote
Matn Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Nice review. Hehe. I got four of these, I got them for free a few months ago. But I haven't opened them (yet). Quote
Nirdian Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Awesome lil thingy! The only thing that bugs me is that it's not all that "mini" ya know... I wish it'd be in scale with the mini falcon from some time ago. Quote
KimT Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Awesome lil thingy! The only thing that bugs me is that it's not all that "mini" ya know... I wish it'd be in scale with the mini falcon from some time ago. Yeah right, then I'd be smaller than small. The minis have never been in scale with each other. Doing so would make no sense at all. Imagine how small they'd have to make the AT-ST compared to the ISD. Quote
CopMike Posted January 3, 2009 Posted January 3, 2009 Thanks mutley! Looks like a small & fun build. I think I have the pieces already for it ! CopMike Quote
Snake...SNAKE...SNAAAAKE?! Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 I thought CopMike could only get these deals! Good job! Quote
General Magma Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 A nice little set, but gray instead of blue would do better. Some guy in Russia indeed is selling like 164 of them, but 12,99 each? That's just too much for me for only 47 pieces! Quote
posades Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Thanks for the review.Not much of a SW fan but it's a cute little desktop model. I would Never pay 13$ for something that only costs 5$ on LDD: LDD Purchase Haha thanks xenologer, I may order that one (I even like the color scheme better!). Only problem is I won't have printed instructions, but I can live without that. Anyone know why they released another Mini Tie Fighter when they already had one (3219)? Quote
KimT Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Anyone know why they released another Mini Tie Fighter when they already had one (3219)? Because they can? Quote
General Magma Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 Anyone know why they released another Mini Tie Fighter when they already had one (3219)? The other one is old.. Did you say that when the new AT-TE came out too? They just re-release it with a new design, like they did with the RGS, AT-TE, MF, etc. but mini's DO have to get re-released too! Quote
csiquet Posted January 14, 2009 Posted January 14, 2009 (edited) Where did you get this? I have had several of those since May last year. They were giving them away at ToysRus with every purchase above 25 EUR of SW sets. They are great against the MF. I even did a MOD of it. After turning the wings of 90�, we have a nice mini TIE crawler. I forgot, with LDD, you don't have the right colours... Edited January 14, 2009 by csiquet Quote

Brian Wong Posted May 4, 2015 Posted May 4, 2015 (edited) I have this set thanks to a contact of mine. Modified to into a proper looking Mini TIE Fighter, with light gray parts replacing the blue ones. Will post an image of it when I get the chance. Edited May 4, 2015 by Brian Wong Quote
