Kylo Ren's TIE Fighter Reviews
BrickFanatics
“Of all of the sets in the new movie collection, 75179 Kylo Ren’s TIE Fighter is the set that fans will have a good idea whether or not they want as soon as they see the box... There may be a few little design niggles, but as a ship that will probably not be revisited unless... More it appears in Episode IX, fans of the TIE Silencer design should get it while it’s hot.”

“LEGO Star Wars designers have really found the most effective means of recreating TIE-series vehicles over the last few years and 75179 Kylo Ren's TIE Fighter maintains the high standard we have come to expect of these models.”
