(...) Ahh, good work! (...) Hmm, probably because when it's singular it's most apt to appear in a title, as in "TIE Fighter" being the name, whereas when it's plural it's most apt to appear as an adjective-noun pair? (...)

(...) That's a good reason too! Say, all this speculation about minifigs and what's natural/useful to track led me to go dig up my first Space set listing that I made when I was a kid. FWIW, here it is exactly* as it appeared around Christmastime of (...) (26 years ago, 7-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)

Per the Shop at Home catalog, and the official reference at (URL) changed "Y-Wing" to "Y-wing" "TIE Fighter" / "TIE fighter" is tougher to gauge, as both www.starwars.com and the S@H catalog seem to have inconsistencies here. It almost seems that (...) (26 years ago, 7-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)

(...) Also, it's important enough at LSI that the count is listed in each set description in the LEGO Shop At Home catalog. This is actually what I suspected to be the original reason Lou tracked them, actually. -- joshua (26 years ago, 7-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database)

(...) There's a real fuzzy line with varying levels of gray. A peg-leg pirate is maybe only 95% a minifig, and a skeleton only 80% a minifig. Gasgano might be 25% and the battle droids 40% and Artoo 10%. Threepio might be 90% but we'll have to wait (...) (26 years ago, 7-May-99, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.starwars)
