- The TIE Fighter is a battle station in the Star Wars continuity.
The TIE Fighter is a vehicle of some sort, always associated with Darth Vader. There are two known types, the plain, Mini-Con, TIE Fighter, with flat wings, and the TIE Advanced Fighter that is Darth Vader's personal vehicle. At least three TIE Fighters defend the Death Star.
Toys
Star Wars Transformers
- Darth Vader TIE Advanced Fighter (2006)
- Darth Vader's mecha transforms into a TIE Advanced Starfighter, featuring twin spring-loaded missile launchers. These missiles become "lightsaber" melee weapons for the robot mode. One of the vehicle mode's solar panel arrays forms a "cape" for the robot mode, the other a large deflector shield. Like all Star Wars Transformers toys, it comes with a tiny mini-figure of its pilot.
- Darth Vader/Death Star (2007)
- Three TIE Fighters, which have Mech Modes where heads pop out of the cockpits, are included in this package. In both modes of the larger Darth Vader/Death Star toy, panels on the back open to reveal storage compartments for the TIE Fighters.
- The compartments on either side of the back are barely large enough to accommodate more than one TIE Fighter at a time without disassembling the solar arrays.
