Recommendation: yes 5 / 5 from 1 review

Lots of fun to build, well on par with the other classic Star Wars Legos I've bought. A bit expensive for what it is, but fairly well designed.

Recommendation: no 14 / 20 by KimT

In my opinion this is an acceptable version of the Tie Bomber. Bear in mind that this was designed and released in 2003 and for that period I actually think that this is an ok solution. I am not a fan of the annoying use of missile launchers, but it does add great playability. The idea of building the Tie in modules also adds a lot of playability. When the ship takes a hit, one can easily dismember it, removing a wing or the cockpit for example.
