OUT OF PRODUCTION!!! Studio Scale TIE Fighter KIT by Cory Harvey (MensaBoy)

May 30, 2009 Posted in Cory Harvey, MONKEY WORKS - Ed Holt, Retired Kits - OUT OF PRODUCTION, Star Wars Selections


Completely scratch mastered, then molded to be offered as a kit, professional modeler Cory Harvey has again outdone himself! This piece is built to replicate the original filming studio model with the exception of the wing strength modification being fiberglass instead of the koolshade originally used. Most parts of this kit were scratch built to match original parts used on the filming miniatures. These kits are definitely for modeling fans and an OUTSTANDING bargain at $200 each, which includes shipping within the United States! Now, even though it looks the same, it should be noted for the Studio Scale purist, who may wish all parts used in construction to be from the kit bashes as the original studio model utilized, this kit may not be for you being that most of the parts were in fact scratch built instead. In that case of being Studio Scale Purist, the Studio Perfect TIE kit is HERE for you. If replicated parts are OK with you, then this Cory Harvey is a bargain indeed!

I look to have a kit ready to ship every 2 days or so, it will consist of what you see below

2x hand laid fiberglass wing structure panels
4x wing spars
2x wing hub struts
2x wing end caps
2x body halves
12x wing edge strips
24x faux koolshade panels
1 each top, bottom, rear hatches
cockpit panel
cockpit frame
aluminum tube
bag ‘o’ greeblies

As you can see from the photo i am very confident in the integrity of the wing design – my hope is that people will have straight wings decades from now.

The design is simple in concept while being very flexible – for example it is koolshade ready if you so desire (and I will drop the price if you don’t want my fake koolpanels)

The kit price was $200 shipped cont US, anywhere else and I will calculate on a per order basis
