MAXX-Replicas: Hasbro TIE-FIGHTER Conversion V2.0 - 02/14/13 - finished model
« on: February 14, 2013, 12:51:16 PM »
Hi my friends,

after several weeks of working on a second TIE-Fighter conversion (V2.0 ;D), today I could finally finish this project.  :)

"Hasbro TIE FIGHTER - STUDIO SCALE EDITON 2013"

Still not 100% movie accurate, but imho a nice collector piece.
What I've done with this Hasbro toy:

- more realistic cockpit window with all  new "screw holes"
- *new* version of the "3 part" wings
- LED cockpit ilumination
- LED ion engine lights
- "visible" engine
- lots of details added at the wings and the fuselage
- decals added
- all joints closed
- "LED-design" laser canons
- *new* stainless steel design base (optional "Death Star Design Base")
- complete new repaint

Here you can find a making of diary with many pics (German language only - sorry) : http://maxx-replicas.jimdo.com/wip-projekte/hasbro-tie-fighter-v2-0/

And here are some pictures of the final result (a Youtube video is coming the next days):

Thanks for watching  ;)

I hope you can see on the pictures how I have done it (the aluminum tubes are firmly glued to the hull)

Why go through life base fig, when you can customize?

Simply amazing work. The attention to detail is off the charts! It's hard to believe this started out as a Hasbro toy. It's incredible.

Ah okay I see, I'll need to figure out a way to keep mine from sagging but keep it a "toy".
