Takara Tomy presents the Tomica Star Wars TSW-07, featuring Darth Vader's TIE Advanced x1. This diecast vehicle replica is part of the Tomica Star Wars line, which brings iconic Star Wars vehicles into the beloved Tomica toy car format. The TIE Advanced x1 was an experimental starfighter manufactured by Sienar Fleet Systems as part of the TIE fighter series. Darth Vader notably piloted a custom early prototype of this vessel, which boasted features uncommon to standard TIE fighters, including a hyperdrive and deflector shield generator. Vader's personal fighter was equipped with greater speed, heavier firepower with twin blaster cannons and a cluster missile launcher, and an experimental shield system. He famously flew it during the Battle of Yavin, pursuing Rebel fighters attacking the first Death Star before being knocked out of the battle. This Tomica rendition captures the distinctive curved-wing design of Vader's personal fighter, making it a compact collectible for both Star Wars enthusiasts and Tomica collectors alike.
