Description

An iconic fighter in detail

The TIE Fighter is one of the most recognisable ships in the Star Wars saga, instantly identifiable by its flat, hexagonal solar wings. As a UCS model, 75095 prioritises accuracy over play features, recreating the ship's distinctive silhouette at a scale suited to display. At 1,685 pieces, it sits among the mid-sized UCS sets, smaller than more elaborate models like Slave I, but still considerably larger than a regular Star Wars set. That makes it a reasonable entry point into the UCS line without committing to the most elaborate, priciest model.

One minifigure as a finishing touch

Unlike many other UCS sets, 75095 puts almost its entire focus on the ship itself; just one minifigure, likely an Imperial TIE fighter pilot, rounds out the model. That underlines the set's collector-oriented character: it's less about a play scene with several characters and more about as faithful a display model as possible for the shelf. Once built, the figure can sit in the cockpit or be displayed separately alongside the finished ship.

Grey, black and a red accent

The colour palette of light and dark grey and black matches the metallic, menacing look of the original, while red serves as an accent colour for details like thrusters or markings. With 181 unique elements, part variety is lower than in larger UCS models, which suits the fighter's more geometric, clearly structured shape, since many identical parts repeat across the two wings. That repetition gives the build a steady rhythm rather than constantly introducing unfamiliar steps.

The parts list for collectors

This page lists all 181 different elements in the set, handy for anyone needing to replace a single piece or wanting to trace the exact grey tones used. Since many parts appear symmetrically across both wings, it's worth checking the list to get a sense of how often individual elements recur before starting the build. It also makes it easier to work out which shade of grey belongs to which part of the ship.
