But the toy manufacturers never seem to get details like this right.  I
remember quite clearly that in addition to the TIE toy being the wrong

Interceptor the right color, but the laser was still incorrect.  It makes me
wonder how anyone involded in the R&D stage of these toys could screw up
such simple things, even if you weren't a fan!
