Commander_Rob Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 Great review, and a good set too, I guess I will get this one. Maybe I can turn it into a TIE Phantom. Quote
Penitent Tangent Posted December 17, 2009 Posted December 17, 2009 Not a fan of the design here at all. It just seems odd, like.. why would something like that ever exist, what purpose could the three arced wings possibly serve? Reminds me very much of a lot of the fan made starships you see for Star Trek, just overly designed and silly looking. Still, if you are a fan of it, and it seems many people are, then I'm sure it'd be a fun set. And I do really love the new pilot mold. Quote
Seijitai Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 Not a fan of the design here at all. It just seems odd, like.. why would something like that ever exist, what purpose could the three arced wings possibly serve? Hummm, well, it's Star Wars. It does not seems more "unreal" to me than the standard TIE fighter, or the Tantive IV... Overall, I like the set, overpriced for sure, but I think that it can be easlily converted in a more standard TIE Interceptor... And the new pilot rocks ! No offense Penitent ! Quote
Future74 Posted December 21, 2009 Posted December 21, 2009 Thanks for the review Cardinal Brick I think the design is really accurate. Back in the days (1994) I loved flying it in the PC game "TIE Fighter" as Maarek Stele... those were the good ol' days Maybe TLC will do an Assault Gunboat next Although the set is a bit pricy it's a no-brainer for me. I love the new helmet. Quote
RoscoPC Posted December 22, 2009 Posted December 22, 2009 (edited) The WingsYou're going to be building six of these however each of them doesn't take long and they don't look that bad when they're completed. These take up all the part that are provided in bag '2' Parts 7/10 (A limited selection of parts.) Thanks for the review, Cardinal Brick. Could you please confirm if the parts connecting the wings to the cockpit are new? I mean these ones: Thanks Edited December 23, 2009 by RoscoPC Quote
Cardinal Brick Posted December 23, 2009 Author Posted December 23, 2009 RoscoPC not a new part, but it's newish it's had a couple of outinge is space police sets so far you can see it on Bricklink. To all the Assault Gunboat/Tie Fighter (game) fans, I wonder if we should petition Lego to give us one next year? Quote
Led ZePPelin Posted December 23, 2009 Posted December 23, 2009 That's probably why they don't give us what we want very often. Because when they do, we ask for a load more obscure stuff. Quote
