The First Order Special Forces TIE Fighter

The Special Forces TIE Fighter is an evolution of the TIE fighters associated with the First Order. Its design takes over the two large side panels and the central cockpit, which are characteristic of the TIE family, along with a setup specific to this specialized version. It offers an interesting subject for varying a display of Imperial and First Order fighters.

The Revell 01217 model kit

This reference is announced with 50 parts. Once assembled, the model measures 236 mm in length. The 1/72 scale provides a format suitable for display while still offering a substantial presence in a showcase or in a science-fiction diorama.

Assembly requires careful preparation of the parts before fitting: removing sprue attachment points, light deburring, and dry runs help achieve a clean result. Paint and finishing can be used to customize the appearance of the spacecraft, highlight the surface structures, or create a more weathered presentation.
