 | | Best Source For Tie 7181? —Roy Wood
|
| | | Considering how much I like the UCS X-Wing, I'm still tempted by the UCS Tie Interceptor (7181). Anyone have any comments as to how it compares to the X-Wing, or the best/cheapest source for one? -Roy (23 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | (...) IMO, 7181 is better in terms of model accuracy than 7191, but 7191 has a better selection of parts. james (23 years ago, 18-Apr-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | I prefer the TIE much better in terms of the quality of design. The floppy action of the s-foils on the X-Wing (to say nothing of the poor engineering design) caused me to break it down rather quickly whereas I kept the TIE together much longer (...)

| | | | | Hi Roy, I have recently bought both, and I like both. For the price, a German retail chain (Real) has them for a realy good price. 120 DM (roughly $ 55) for 7181 and 170 DM ($ 78) for the X-Wing.

I don't think it is there regular price, they are just selling the last couple of them. On Monday, the (...) (23 years ago, 20-Apr-01, to lugnet.starwars)

No UCS at all at our local "real" :-( Well, that's sad for the LEGO fan, but good for the computer nerd in me since I can use the money for the orignal intention, which is a new video card.

| | | | | | Hi Stefan, I don't realy think that a video card is a good alternativ for Lego, but ... If you change your mind and decide to come to Flensburg, Sunday is a good day to come. This sunday is the day of the beer in Flensburg, guess what, lots of (...) (23 years ago, 25-Apr-01, to lugnet.starwars)

| | | | | (...) I have to agree with the others on this one, but for different reasons. I like the parts selection on the Tie, mainly the 8x8 waffle plates. I like thse for ship decking, it's open and lighter tham most. I think it looks cool. The Tie supplies (...) (23 years ago, 21-Apr-01, to lugnet.starwars)

I ended up getting the UCS X-Wing set for about $50 and the UCS TIE Interceptor for $25! The clearance prices (...) (23 years ago, 25-Apr-01, to lugnet.starwars)
