Posted July 14, 201212 yr Here it is, my mod of Anakin's Eta-2 from set 9494. I really enjoyed building this one and in my opinion it is the best looking of the ETAs. The second being Obi Wan's. Here are some pictures. Now here is my "fleet" of Eta-2s. The only question remaining for me is, do I go ahead and make the Blue one that Obi-Wan uses and the Purlple (Mace from cw cartoon) and green (Saesee from cw cartoon) Now this is my evolution of Anakin/Vaders fighters.
July 14, 201212 yr That's a sweet modification! I'm liking this project you're doing. It's cool to see the evolution of Anakin's ships made from Lego. I also like your ETA-2 fleet. As for the question, I'd love to see a purple one for Mace! Go for it! Keep up the awesome work.

Well, I hope that in the upcoming serial about the period between E3-4 there will be another step between Vader's ships. Windu's Eta-2 would be nice, but I guess there arent parts for it. There used to be a similar Vaders Eta on ebay, I would have bought it if it werent so expensive.

Windu's Eta-2 would be nice, but I guess there arent parts for it. There used to be a similar Vaders Eta on ebay, I would have bought it if it werent so expensive. I bought every part on bricklink and didnt use any of my personal parts. It cost about 50$ but 20% of that cost is shipping since I had to order from 9 different stores.
July 14, 201212 yr Very nice MOC. I recommend reading Star Wars: Dark Lord as it tells of how much Vader hated this ship right after he became Vader and how his larger stature was crammed into the cockpit which led to Vader greatly influencing the design of the TIE series, particularly the cockpit.
July 15, 201212 yr Great work there. I love the comparison picture of your fleet. I say do them all. Also nice to know about the back story regarding Vader and his influence on the TIE design.
July 15, 201212 yr It's weird how a design that has always been associated with the Jedi can suddenly look so gloomy and menacing when done in all black with Imperial logo's. Awesome job jmagaletta, i'd say this one is the best looking of the series yet!
July 19, 201212 yr I just saw this and this is awesome. I think the all black looks very menacing. I also love the picture of the evolution of his ships.
July 19, 201212 yr How did you get the imperial insignia on the JSF cockpit piece instead of the open circle fleet insignia? Stickers?
July 19, 201212 yr How did you get the imperial insignia on the JSF cockpit piece instead of the open circle fleet insignia? Stickers? Looking at the thickness, I'd say yes.
July 19, 201212 yr Author Looking at the thickness, I'd say yes. Yes they are stickers, i have to get better ones though as the ones i made were just a temporary fix.
July 19, 201212 yr Man, that's awesome! I love this mod, and I can see Vader flying around in this after the Clone Wars! Nice job!
