"This set is a very good representation of the TIE fighters used in the movie. The red accents and triangular panels give the fighter a formidable appearance befitting its Sith origin. Additional detail on the fighter is provided by printed pieces; I'm happy there are no stickers to apply. The fighter is solidly built and would likely hold up under play. That said, the completed set is a bit on the heavy side which makes it a bit difficult to "whoosh" around. The triggering mechanism for the wing-embedded spring shooters is a very clever design. The only thing I dislike about this fighter is that it's a tight fit in the cockpit for the pilot.
The stand for the fighter is a nice addition since the fighter cannot easily rest on its wings. The print on all three minifigures is exceptionally well done."
