Hot Toys - 1/6 TIE Fighter

Re: Hot Toys - TIE Fighter

On the plus side it will make a great display with that Hasbro Star Wars Black 6" TIE Fighter Pilot figure.

Its not 1/6. Not at all, whoever confirmed that is lying. TIE Fighter is 9 meters. AKA over 29.5 feet. Divide that by 6... It would have to be over 5 feet. That is not 5 feet. Its not 1/6.

I have to disagree. Look at the tie next to Marty and delorean in this picture.

A 12" tie pilot would easily fit in it.

Don't come in here with your math and logic. It's 1/6th. Deal with it.

That's just insane...............!!!!!!!!!



So there really is hope for a 1/6th Death Star!

Marty is perceptive.

If that is 5 feet wide that means they girl taking the pick would be about 5' from elbow to elbow meaning she has probably 7.5' -8' wingspan.

This is 100% correct. It is not 1:6 scale. They may say it is and it may even fit a 1:6 figure but it is not true 1:6 scale. Much like the Hasbro Tie fighter, sure it fit a 3.75inch figure, but the ship was downsized because a 1/18 scale Tie would be too big for kids. HT can say it is 1:6 and it may fit. 1/6 figure but the ship is downsized.

Can we agree that it's a small personal loan scale then?

Makes sense. But whatever it is -- 1/8, 1/12 -- it's frickin' insane.


And so is the person who buys that.

Someone with sense.

Perfect post Jack.

Re: Hot Toys - TIE Fighter

Do you think they will actually produce it at this size or shrink it down like the Bat?

Some people think they know everything and can not accept its 1/6

Re: Hot Toys - TIE Fighter

Its cool, Im not knocking it, impressive Hot Toys did this. Its just not a true 1/6th vehicle.

No offence. But all of you guys debating the 1/6 need to get a grip... Who cares if it is EXACT????!!!

This is nothing short of a milestone in collecting. We've NEVER seen anything of this magnitude attempted before. 1/6 or not - it fits a 1/6 figure and would be nothing short of jaw dropping to behold.

Its not a true 1/6th though. Its like 1/7th or 1/8th.

Re: Hot Toys - TIE Fighter

If anyone has seen the eFX it would be 4 times bigger then that. Just think about that. I don't think it's quite 1/12, 1/8 maybe. 1/8 puts it back to around 3.5' wide and that's more realistic to the picture of the girl in front.

So what you are saying is that it will be in perfect scale with the Medicom TIE Fighter Pilot then.
