Darth Vader's TIE Fighter Die Cast Replica

Manufacturer: Code 3 Collectibles Release Date: 01 Jan 2006 Property: Episode IV MSRP: 325.00 USD Country: United States

Description: Having the distinct characteristics of large twin solar arrays, the Empire's TIE Starfighters have become the most widely recognizable symbol of the Imperial forces. Differing from the standard TIE, Vader's custom TIE Advance X1 has larger, angular wings, a longer rear engine, and both protective shields and hyperdrive capability. Like its pilot, Lord Vader, the TIE Advanced X1 is faster, more maneuverable and definitely more lethal. Code 3 Collectibles presents the most authentic reproduction of the TIE Advanced X1 Starfighter to date. Every detail of the original starship has been meticulously captured, and recreated in die cast with astonishing precision. With over 300 hand-crafted pieces, all detailed features were scaled from the original TIE Advanced X1. The cockpit hatch is removable to expose astounding detail of the cockpit interior, control panels, side panel detailing and even includes Darth Vader seated at his pilot chair. This compelling showpiece is custom painted to emphasize its rich detail, from the weathering effect of the exhaust fumes, to the computer detail on the interior side panels. This replica of the TIE Advance X1 Starfighter was molded based on the original models and photos from the Lucasfilm Archives. This remarkable display piece is the ultimate in die cast modeling, complete with its own custom designed display base, stand, nameplate, certificate of authenticity and official collectors patch. 1:38 scale, with overall dimensions measuring in at 9.5" x 2.3" x 11". Limited to 5,000 pieces worldwide.
