I’ve been wanting a TIE bomber kit for 45 years… :thinking:

Very detailed.

Slightly outside of my price range.

Well it is about time. Given that the TIE bomber made its first appearance in The Empire Strikes Back, and that The Empire Strikes Back is my favorite movie, there is no way I won’t be getting this one.

Now if we could just get a larger scale Rebel Blockade Runner….

This guy appears to agree with you @Cbowling

I found it too funny that this ad was directly below your post about it being out of your price range.

Wow! $400 is a lot for a model period. Hopefully the price will come down to the ā€œNormalā€ range.

That was for a resin garage kit. That price ain’t coming down. The AMT one will be much more reasonable.

It’s a good looking kit and I’m excited to review it when it’s available. :slight_smile:

The TIE Bomber looks great. I hope it sells well. I’m getting in line. Now we wait. Will it arrive on the shelves on 12/2025 or 12/2026?

I wonder if that means new tool 1/48 X-Wings, Y-Wings, and other TIE variants some time down the line. Like in 2077, for the 100th anniversary of Star Wars?

And where is the Space Slug oven mitt? No true Star Wars fan should be lacking this absolute must-have kitchen accessory!

Okay, I’m switching off the ā€œstupidā€ mode.

Agree with the need for additional TIE variants, is almost criminal we have only gotten a couple after all this time

Indeed! Seems it would be a solid feed of the collection monkeys to keep putting out the ā€˜next’ variant from the apparently never-ending reservior…
