As a follow-up to my custom Z-95 Headhunter, I immediately built it a worthy adversary. The First Order is seriously lacking TIE variants, most notably a bomber (that hologram shown by DJ in The Last Jedi doesn't… doesn't count.) The official First Order TIE bomber may be just rehash of the Imperial model, but I was inspired by YouTuber E.C. Henry's own take on the craft, along with a digital model he made here (video link). The only thing I changed is add a red Special Forces livery, as this is a heavy bomber with more guns. Perhaps the official TIE bombers are the all-black regular TIE bombers, just like the TIE-SF fighter is different from the First Order TIE fighter. The cockpit module was inspired by Jerac's TIE Bomber MOC, and I also studied his TIE Advanced and TIE Interceptor for the building techniques on the solar wings. I am quite proud of the hexagonal parts and all the simple greebling on it. There are more pics on the flickr album. Lastly, here it is facing off against some Z-95 Headhunters who have discovered a huge secret...

Next TIE craft in the line! The Bomber is one of my favourite designs in the lineup. Interceptor is nice, the standard T/F is somewhat boring and featureless, but the bomber is visibly a workhorse of the fleet. It is heavy, rugged and pragmatic as possible, with no regard placed when it comes to its look. In the end you get a ship which is totally distinct and what is rare in Star Wars world, assymetric. Who wouldn't like such a design? What was surprising for me was how heavy the ship is compared to other TIEs. It uses almost twice the part count to the standard T/F, and yet it is similar in size. The build was fun but not super challenging, there were just few complex areas: coning shape of the hulls' fronts and bottoms, engines, bomb bay, center hull joiner, having the hulls proper diameter.... okay, perhaps this is few things to consider :D Lets get to that which matters - the design! I hope you like it as much as I did the design! ...and there is a video, too! :D The ship is a commisioned build and as such, has instructions available! https://www.brickvault.toys/collections/all

Here is a TIE Bomber MOC I made a while back. It's too large, I know, but I made it a while back, and I wasn't as good at accuracy or stability back then. This was originally supposed to fill in the gaps in the LEGO Star Wars lineup, but the way the modules are joined, it's far too weak to be made in real life, let alone made into a "set". Anyway, here it is: It needs stands to stand up (no pun intended) Here is the cockpit. It's very similar to the TIE Striker's one. There's a bombardier compartment at the back behind the cockpit: Fold open the other side, and you see the rapid stud shooter. It is activated by turning the engine behind the module, which I forgot to take a screenshot of Here is the wing detailing: C&C Welcome! I may update this topic with a pic of the engines when I have time. VaderFan2187 out!

Hello everyone, A couple months ago I posted my TIE-Bomber MOC, but now I've decided to put it on LEGO Ideas. Because I didn't want to necro my old post I decided to go a head and make a new topic, for those who haven't seen the original I've put a short summary and all the pictures below. If you would like to support my project click this link: https://ideas.lego.com/projects/141973 Front view of the build (Cockpit windscreen needs to be the special TIE-Variant). Top view of the build, I decided to go with just a little greebling on the top. Back view of the build, the Twin Ion Engines came out pretty good. Inside the cockpit, there is room for both the pilot and the gunner. And lastely a size comparison between the official TIE-Fighter set and my TIE-Bomber.
