Our good buddies over at Brick Fanatics review LEGO Star Wars 75211 Imperial TIE Fighter, a new spin on a classic vehicle that we will be seeing once again in Solo: A Star Wars Story.

The LEGO Group has created a movie accurate masterpiece in 75211 Imperial TIE Fighter, making for the best System scale TIE Fighter ever – this not a set to let pass you by

Price: £64.99 / $69.99 / €69.99 Pieces: 519 Available: Now

LEGO Star Wars has followed a pattern with beloved iconic ships from the original trilogy. Nearly two decades since the franchise first made the jump into the world of the brick, nothing has escaped immortalisation; indeed most have been remade multiple times. The pattern is for each new version to include incremental improvements from the last both to entice folks who had the previous incarnation into an upgrade and to snag new fans.

Surprisingly, for such a history of revisiting iconic ships from the franchise, 75211 Imperial TIE Fighter is only the fourth System release of the standard TIE Fighter, and arguably the third different design. As such, it has some advantages over other ships like Y-Wings or the Millennium Falcon; advantages which it leverages to the fullest. The end result, a nearly perfect set which absolutely belongs in every Star Wars fan’s collection; this is the best System scale standard TIE the LEGO Group has ever made by a wide margin.
