Original TIE Fighter model on sale for $170k
All you Richie Rich’s who love Star Wars better pay attention. Over at eBay you can drop a fortune and bid on one of four original T.I.E. Fighter models that was actually used in the filming of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.
More specifically, this is the Fighter that ran into Darth Vader so Luke could blow up the Death Star. It was constructed from resin and cannibalized parts from other model kits. The auction doesn’t begin until August 1st, but as the world’s richest nerd, you’ll want to get ready. The starting price is $170,000. After you win it, you can hang it over the dining room table and make pew pew pew noises while eating your steak tar tar.
