"I have wanted an imperial tie fighter for some time now and was about to purchase the version from 2012 when I heard this one was coming out and decided to wait. It did not disappoint. The only other tie I have is Darth Vader's tie advanced from 2009 and although I really enjoy it, the connection from the wings to the body is flimsy and they tend to fall off. That is not the case on this tie as the connection from the wings to the body is very sturdy.
Overall it is fantastic! The only complaint I have is that the missles are red instead of green that the imperial ties had and is even pictured shooting on the box, especially since LEGO has used green missles in previous sets (i.e. Obi Wan's jedi interceptor) and would be an easy swap."
