This Darth Vader TIE Fighter Wheelchair Kid Will Melt Your Geeky HeartThe moment I saw this, I knew I had to share it with you. Out of all the Star Wars cosplay we’ve featured, this has to be the best one of all. This Darth Vader TIE Fighter kid was making his way around MCM Expo London Comic Con at the end of May. Redditor JapanUnderground asked the boy’s father if he could snap a pic, and the rest is viral history. This kid is an inspiration on so many different levels, and I hope he knows his awesomeness goes beyond this cosplay.Not only does his wheelchair make the perfect TIE Fighter, he would make Darth Vader proud. I searched the thread in the reddit post, but I couldn’t find anything about how his wheelchair was transformed into a TIE Fighter. You can see he has a lightsaber in his hand, and I wonder if he got to wield it that day.The most awesome part of this Darth Vader TIE Fighter cosplay is that this kid had the inspiration to do it. He could have thought that since he’s in a wheelchair, he couldn’t be a cosplayer, but he didn’t.
He got out there and showed the world his love of Star Wars. He is a true inspiration to everyone, and a great example of how to live life right, no matter what limitations the rest of the world might see.If you want to see some more Star Wars cosplay, meet Miss Death Star or this Dog AT-AT Costume. As far as this little Darth Vader guy goes, we wish him the best of luck forever. I hope he takes on the world with the same spirit he showed the day he cosplayed Vader. The force is strong with you little buddy!Darth Vader TIE Fighter Cosplay(Click Image To Enlarge)Via: [Neatorama] [reddit] Darth Vader comes to Garmin GPS, you will obey the Sith Lord’s directions 07.29.2011 :: 3:00PM EST “Your journey to the Dark Side is nearly complete.” That’s what you’ll hear from the voice of Darth Vader as you’re driving in your car to your in-law’s house. Okay, so whether or not you’re looking forward to your destination, Darth Vader doesn’t care. He’ll guide you on your way as the new voice for Garmin’s range of personal navigation devices.
Darth Vader is the first Star Wars character to be offered by Garmin, but Yoda is on his way to your car’s GPS too. In addition to Darth’s signature heavy breathing and his threatening commentary, the voice also includes original Star Wars sound effects, like TIE fighters and lightsabers. John Williams’ Imperial March music plays when you reach your destination. If you’re about to hit traffic, Darth will warn you buy saying: “Traffic ahead. The emperor has foreseen it.” You’ll be sure to follow directions with Darth guiding you. If you steer off course, he’ll say “Proceed as indicated, don’t make me destroy you.” Yes, Lord Vader, whatever you say. If you do end up going the wrong way, Darth will tell you to turn around when possible as he “finds your lack of faith disturbing.” If you remember, Darth originally said this in Episode IV when one officer bashes the Force and Vader practically chokes the guy to death. As for the upcoming Yoda voice, you can count on his strange characteristic speech patterns, along with dialogue from Obi-Wan Kenobi taken straight from the films.
Honestly, if you could have one person (or creature) in the world guide you safely to your destination, wouldn’t you want it to be Yoda? This isn’t the first time we’ve seen Star Wars character voices on GPS, though. TomTom was ahead of the game and released Darth Vader, C-3PO, Yoda, and Han Solo starting back in May of 2010. , , and Best Buy stores.

Michele FabbriIt's really incredible! ) to produce it? Everybody would like to have it! Seth GWow this is stunning! I love the way you created the wings! Also I am doing a Lego transformers fans pick of 2012, and was wandering if you would like to partake in this event. Comment on the page, /moc.php/319171 and tell me what you think I should build! Thanks for even considering! Eric W. Quoting El Barto !I've always felt like a woman trapped in a man's body. Eric W. Quoting Jarrod Davis I might use it. It depends on how it looks in person. They look a little bulbous to me. We will just have to wait and see.I will do that soon. If you need larger pics, just click on them. Thanks by the way! Eric W. Quoting M<0><0>DSWIM ! I have my next one already built in LDD, just have to get all the parts from bricklink and build it. Who knows how long that will take though... Hopefully not too long! I hope It can top this one! Eric W. Quoting Aidan Bryant
That is one of my dreams! I am keeping this one on display so maybe one day I will have it and some regular TIE's in the Death Star trench chasing Luke in his X-Wing. Eric W. Quoting Green Ghost . Eric W. Quoting Jay RhumTitan is a beauty! Eric W. Quoting LukeClarenceVan The Revanchist Maybe you shouldnt be such a potty mouth then!!! My favorite part is the wings. I could put those wings on a rock and it would be cool! Eric W. Quoting Commander HawkI put a load of work into this puppy and I am glad you really appreciate my efforts! I used a UCS type of stand for this. The overall build is kinda my UCS style. I really like minifig scale and I intend to build as many mocs with this type of quality as I can in the future. Thank you for your kind words C. Hawk! Eric W. Quoting Chris Stone I was shocked because I was only expecting a few people to like it here, not for it to be most popular this week here and blogged on fbtb and eurobricks! Eric W. Quoting Beaver Boy !
17 - Chief Andreas L.Thanks for letting me know! I'm shocked this thing's so popular! Bob the inconceivably invincible Eric W. Quoting Hrvoje Hed�et Thank you so much! I am definitely keeping this on permanent display. I actually intend to build some of the other TIEs in this fashion. My next big project is going to be a re-do of the TIE avenger. It will look like this but WAY cooler. I think you should take as long as it takes on your upcoming X-wing. The end result will be worth it. Eric W. Quoting Matt Mason Luckily he didn't see me so everything is ok. Good thing I was wearing that helmet though because I landed head first into the control sticks and that would have hurt!!! Eric W. Quoting Mister Bones Just so you know Bones, it is for sale, FOR ONE MEEEEELION DOLLARS! Eric W. Quoting Hans Dendauw NPDMy main goal with this build was to get it as accurate as possible and stay within the "Minifig scale". Eric W. Quoting sith sera
If you read the reply below this one, I am going to post LDD instructions for the wings in this post so check back soon. Eric W. Quoting Soap . It is already on it's way to you! I am going to post instructions for the wings though so you can copy it if you want. Eric W. Quoting JS CanToo bad they already did this one a couple years ago... If they did it like this, it would cost as much as a UCS set because of the amount of parts.I tried so hard to make this as accurate as I could. I am absolutely in love with my wing design. It takes a ton of parts but its worth it. And just a little spoiler alert, I am in the works of making the TIE avenger in this style. The Pied Pauper $$ /moc.php/288513 Great use of SNOT, the cockpit is really nice, and the wings look fantastic. Easily a 5/5 Great build! Eric W. Quoting RC 1710 "Deff" I made this stand just for this fighter. It's built UCS style. With some changes, I guess you could put basically anything you want on it.
