Description

The TIE Interceptor in an elite scheme

Unlike earlier TIE Interceptor sets, this model focuses on the distinctive jagged wings and a dense level of surface detailing, matching later Star Wars depictions of the craft. Light Bluish Gray and Dark Bluish Gray form the base structure of the wings and hull, while white adds bright accents and black picks out the cockpit and technical details. With 152 distinct part types across 396 pieces, the model offers a high level of detail for its size, particularly in the wing construction.

Three figures from the starfighter crew

The set's three minifigures work well as pilot and support crew and suit your own space-battle scenes regardless of which exact film or series you have in mind. Since the cockpit opens up, the pilot figure sits directly inside the vehicle, which is handy for play scenes. Across the 152 distinct part types, numerous special elements go into the wing construction, each one easy to look up individually through the parts list on this page.

Size and its place on a Star Wars shelf

At 396 pieces, the Black Ace TIE Interceptor builds in one or two sittings and pairs well with other Star Wars starships on a shelf, without the space demands of larger UCS models. Its grey-and-white palette is typical of Imperial vehicles and combines well with other TIE fighter or Star Destroyer sets. Anyone after wing pieces or cockpit elements specifically will find them faster through the parts list than through the instructions alone.

The "Black Ace" colour scheme

The "Black Ace" name refers to a specially marked elite unit within the Imperial forces, as featured across various Star Wars media, which explains the slightly different colouring compared with standard TIE sets. Collectors who own several TIE variants may find it worth comparing parts lists to see which colours and special elements appear only in this version. Those differences are easiest to track down directly through the parts list on this page.
