This item is an injection-plastic kit of a science-fiction/anime item. It requires both cement and painting to complete or use.
A reissue of Fine Molds outstanding 1/72 TIE Fighter kit with new box art designed to complement the DVD release of the first three movies in the Star Wars series. DVD not included! Not only is the detail of the kit absolutely brilliant, but they've gone out of their way to make this as easy to build as possible, even if you've never built a plastic model before. Note how the outer panels and the inner spokes are formed from separate parts -- this means you won't have to do any masking to paint the kit correctly! Just spray or brush gray and black paint on the appropriate parts, complete assembly, and then apply an easy black or dark gray wash to the kit (click here how if you're not familiar with this simple modeling technique) to get the amazing panel line and detail relief seen here. A must for any Star Wars fan!
