Sixth Scale TIE Pilot
« on: July 23, 2014, 04:18:54 AM »
I got home late last night and saw Sideshow has teased this:

http://www.sideshowtoy.com/whats-new/tie-fighter-pilot-sixth-scale-figure/



"TIE Fighter Pilot Sixth Scale Figure
Following in the wake of the recent Luke Skywalker Red Five X-Wing Pilot Sixth Scale Figure comes the TIE Fighter Sixth Scale Figure!  This Imperial Army fighter from Star Wars will be available for Pre-Order in the future.  Attending Comic-Con in San Diego?  You’ll get a chance to see the TIE Fighter figure in person!"

Look for us to carry word of the pre-order when it is live...

Looks very cool, curious how it will compare to Marmit and Medicom pilots:

Looks pretty fantastic to me Serg. Did you see Hot Toys is gonna make SW Stuff in this scale (and 1/4) too?

Iy looks very nice indeed,  quite similar to the old Marmit.

HT will make SW in 1:4 and 1:6 and thus I'm in need of an accurate Stormie in both sizes

Vaders Trusted Wingman up for pre-order...

"Sideshow Collectibles is proud to present the Exclusive Imperial TIE Fighter Pilot Sixth Scale Figure from Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.

Dispatched under the direct command of Darth Vader during the Battle of Yavin IV, high-ranking and fearless Imperial TIE Fighter pilots swarmed the skies to defend the Death Star from Rebel assault.

Emblazoned with stark white Imperial insignia, the pilot wears his unmistakable streamlined helmet, and glossy black armor fitted over a pristine standard-issue flight suit. Interchangeable wrist gauntlets allow dexterity for handling TIE Fighter controls, and positive gravity pressure boots keep him grounded in all situations. Although typically found in the cockpit, Sideshow’s Exclusive TIE Fighter Pilot also comes armed with a ‘retro’ inspired blaster – a nostalgic feature Star Wars collectors are sure to enjoy. Ready to serve the Galactic Empire with honor and distinction, the Imperial TIE Fighter pilot is an exceptional addition to any Star Wars military collection!

Though I already have the Medi and Marmit, and hoped for a painted variant helmet I might get this in the end.

I'm sure they will make an AT-AT driver. Curious if it will be white or gray though (or both)

Oh you know the resale value (kinda like the clones) will be awesome here. I look for dozens of TIE Pilots and Driver combinations.
