So, in other words, it's exactly what the original Darth Vader's TIE Fighter toy was?

Oh, not at all, my friend; THIS one has red STRIPES!! :monkeydance:

...otherwise, yes, same concept design as the original Kenner toy, but much more nicely done and displayed. :cheers:

I really like it. It reminds me of the TIE Advanced mesh seen in the LucasArts X-Wing games, before the design got refined in TIE Fighter. I might try this kitbash myself given how excellent it looks here. I especially like the yellow accents in spots as they give it some good color contrast. Nice Work!

BTW, if it were the Kenner toy, it would need the grab handle in the back with the button to fire the lasers. ;)

Interesting. After looking at your work, you could have reversed the solar panels and placed the cockpit toward the rear, instead of the front. More Tie Interceptor like, but different.

Nice work!

I want cockpit on the front of the panels and do not want to look a like Interceptor.
