TIE Advanced X1 (Darth Vader's TIE Fighter)

April 1, 2023 · in Sci-fi · · 9 ≡ · 0.8K

Picked this little kit up for a small price. It was a fun little project and gave me the opportunity to test out some groundwork without running the risk of ruining an expensive kit.
Not visible in the pics, but it has a detailed cockpit, including a tiny "Lord Vader".

    Beautiful result, Jay @jaybiga
    The fighter and the little base do look perfect together.

    Nice build. Is it 1/72 scale?

      According to the box the scale is 1/121, but that seems wrong to me. The little Darth Vader that comes with the kit is the size of a 1/72 scale figure.
