Rarity & Significance
Historically significant as the first time the TIE Bomber was produced for the 3.75-inch line since its conceptualization in the 1980s. While highly sought after when complete, this specific unit is considered 'junk' or 'fodder' for parts or customizers due to the absence of the essential wings.
Special Features
Spring-loaded bombing bay and electronic sound effects powered by batteries (compartment in the rear). Includes sculpted dual laser cannons.
Notable Variations
This 2002 version features a light grey plastic color; it was later reissued in the 2000s in a more 'blue-grey' hue for The Saga Collection. There are no known major sculpting variations for this specific mold.
