TIE Fighter Reviews

Collectors
Investors
“TIE Fighter is a solid set for Star Wars fans, a classic set that brings to life one of the most iconic starfighters from the Star Wars universe. The model captures the distinctive shape of the TIE Fighter, with its large, wing-like solar panels and spherical cockpit. The... More set includes two minifigures: a TIE Pilot and Darth Vader. The inclusion of Darth Vader, one of the most iconic characters in the Star Wars saga, is a major highlight.”
Brickset
“Overall: this set is one of the empire classics and is recommended to people who like small, old or empire sets. Lego did not introduce any new parts. The pod's wind screen/window is not to hard to find now although it is an interesting piece.”

About Star Wars Episode IV

Episode IV covers A New Hope, the first Star Wars film from 1977, and it goes back to the first LEGO Star Wars sets of 1999, among them Luke's X-wing and landspeeder. Luke, Han and Leia had the classic yellow LEGO faces until 2004, when LEGO switched the figures of its licensed themes to flesh tones to look more like the actors.

Episode IV was introduced in 1999 and currently consists of 53 sets. As of today, NY Comic-Con 2012 Luke Skywalker's Landspeeder is the most valuable Episode IV set with an estimated new/sealed value of $1,004.
