Today I present to you my smaller scale (what I'm calling Midi scale) TIE Phantom. I had a version of this previously that was okay but wasn't too proud of. When LEGO released the latest Millenium Falcon with printed canopy pieces I thought they would look perfect for the canopy to a small TIE Phantom so I set to redesigning. I'm quite proud of what I came up with, not only does it look good but it's pretty sturdy and is very swooshable. I'm really starting to love this scale of ship (the aforementioned Millenium Falcon is probably my favorite official set in recent memory, it's just so good). The instructions are available on Rebrickable: https://rebrickable.com/mocs/MOC-140080/monkeyulize/tie-phantom-midi-scale/

Fenghuang’s Wall-Mounted Fleet Battle Display
Monkeyulize replied to Fenghuang0296's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I would suggest using midi or micro scale ships to give a real sense of scale. I'd like to do something similar to this, but maybe hung from the ceiling for a fully three dimensional view. -
So. Much. Greeble.

Beautiful model. I was about to say there was no way you got that engine shaping with bricks and then saw it was a sticker .

I went ahead and used one of the images on Mould King's website to take a stab at this. What do you think?

I'd be happy to give it a shot. The only thing is its preferable to have a digital model so that I can get the best angle. Long shot, but you don't happen to have a stud.io file for this model do you? Otherwise I would need the instructions to build it digitally and do the render.

[MOC] TIE Phantom (2026 January Update)
Monkeyulize replied to Monkeyulize's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I made a video overview of this model showing handling and highlighting some of my favorite bits. Give it a like if you wouldn't mind, I'm dipping my toes into the youtube space. Also my camera kinda of just crapped the bed after I filmed this so that's fun. -

Looks fantastic! Probably my favorite one of yours so far. Capital ships are always so cool in this scale.

[MOC] TIE Phantom (2026 January Update)
Monkeyulize replied to Monkeyulize's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Major update to the wings and some internal stuff for stronger connections. I can extremely confidently swoosh this thing around by holding on the rear or from the wings. The instructions also got an overhaul. I opened it as a new project on Rebrickable in case anyone wanted to purchase the version with all the improvements, otherwise the old version is still available for free. -
[MOC] Tie Defender (Minifig-scale, UCS-style)
Monkeyulize replied to Sylyphics's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Really interesting wing connections. I guess the alternation of the 65578 bar pieces is what provides the stability? I hope to get around to building this one as I'm big on illegal techniques and am not happy with other models in that regard and you claim to have avoided them :) -
[MOC] TIE Phantom (2026 January Update)
Monkeyulize replied to Monkeyulize's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Reworked the rear section significantly. Also some internal stuff in the wings and some updated instructions that should hopefully result in a smoother build process. -
Amazing, I love the canopy and the shaping around it especially.

[MOC] TIE Phantom (2026 January Update)
Monkeyulize replied to Monkeyulize's topic in LEGO Star Wars
Back again with an update. I started off with trying a different technique for the engine heat spreaders which led me down a path of tweaking many things including the wing proportions, the wing-tip blasters, the entire rear section, the whole engine 'pod', and the greebling. Also a look at a landing pad I'm working on. -

[MOC] TIE Interceptor™ (ROTJ 40th Anniversary Product Concept)
Monkeyulize replied to Rui Miguel's topic in LEGO Star Wars
I love everything else you've added to the model to make it like an official set with marketing materials. I've also done some box art designing and it's much harder and more tedious than it looks!- 12 replies
