The Imperial ranks are growing at Hot Toys with this Tie Fighter Pilot figure from Star Wars: A New Hope.
Today, Hot Toys has announced a long-awaited figure for collectors—the Tie Fighter Pilot. Over the years, Hot Toys has released several variants of Imperial Troopers, but this one was the big missing piece. This Tie Fighter Pilot is based on his appearance in Star Wars: A New Hope.
Imperial pilots relied on lightning-quick reflexes and fearlessness to survive tours of duty against the Empire’s enemies, as TIE Fighters were lightly armored and lacked shields. Only the very best pilots earned their wings as fighter aces.
Paying homage to the heart pounding action scene where Luke Skywalker and Han Solo join hands to defend against TIE Fighters, Hot Toys is thrilled to present the new 1/6th TIE Fighter Pilot collectible figure!Skillfully crafted based on TIE Fighter Pilot as seen on Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope™, the figure features a highly detailed helmet with Imperial markings and breathing tubes connected to chest panel, a blaster rifle, a blaster pistol and a display base!
The TIE Fighter Pilot figure in sixth scale is surely a great addition to your Star Wars original trilogy display!
