Star Wars Rebels Tie Advanced Prototype & More - The Toyark - News

Simple, but gangster.



More at the link above, and some thoughts.

Thanks for the sharp photos.

I don't even collect ships ordinarily, and it seems like a fairly simplistic toy design, no flashing lights or sound effects, but something about that modified TIE fighter grabs me. Maybe it plays an important part in the new Rebels series or connects it to the upcoming movies somehow, but as Vader would say, "I want that ship!"

Do the solar panel arrays or "fins" on the wings snap or click into different positions? Without some simple mechanism like that, it occurs to me that they might become loose and floppy.

Star Wars episodes I-VI, 1977-2005 the saga is complete! As in done, over, finished, THE END.






2014 GOT MILK???

The wings are a bit loose as is. They don't have any click mechanism, it's a smooth metal bar rotating joint. If you tap it or shake the table, it can fold in on itself now. Not completely flimsy, but, not sturdy like a click lock either.

So it's for collector display, not rough treatment. Thanks.
