TIE Advanced Prototype

I recently got this as a Christmas present from a co-worker. My love of Star Wars and Legos are well known at work as I have a couple of smaller sets decorating my desk. I've never considered the microbuilds as a purchase for myself as I prefer the bigger ships to display at home. The build was a lot more involved than I expected from a $10 set and included a lot of details. The pilot looks really good (the only minor beef here is that the helmet doesn't cover all of the back of his head). I was able to build this fairly quickly during a couple of breaks at work, and now it sits proudly between the Snowspeeder and the Imperial Troop Transport on my desk. You can safely assume that I will be getting a couple more of these microbuilds in the future. There may be a whole fleet on my desk before management shuts it down. more less

I love this one, it's a great small build, cheap $10, the cheapest way to get an awesome wookie mold. Goes well with all the other wookies but still looks different. I have zero problems with this price point or the build/piece count/minifig. It's just a well done Microfighter. more less

As a Star Wars fan and a fan of the Rebels TV show, I like the TIE Advanced Prototype a good bit. I think it's the perfect companion to The Ghost, and will look great sitting next to it on display. I wish the minifigure was better or more appropriate, but that's a relatively minor complaint in the big scheme of things. There's some good parts in it, but I wouldn't buy it based solely on the pieces. It's a good addition to the collection of any Star Wars fan. more less
