Wait, are they called tie fighters because they look sort of like bow ties
TIE is the acronym for Twin Ion Engine.
I mean the bow tie thing kinda works too, but yeah.
TIE fighters don’t have hyperdrives though.
No, it’s a short range fighter.
Must have gotten lost. Apart of a convoy or something.
The TIE Advanced did. Wrong wing shape for that though.
Twin Ion Engine. There's no hyperdrive in there...
So this one is basically already complete. What a bargain!
I think First Order Special Forces TIEs do
50,000 credits. I know what I got.
"Perfect restore candidate" Third pictures is of completely rotted out floorboard.
50,000‽ I can buy a whole new starship for that!
But who’s gonna fly it????
Best I can do is 150.
It's got good bones.
Hello there. Somehow, Star Wars memes have returned. It's not a trap, this is where the fun begins.

Our galactic citizens have requested more specific rules, so here are a few.
The general idea is, if you're looking here for rules, you're probably someone who doesn't need to have them spelled out. You're fine. But anyway:
This is a community for Star Wars memes. This means typically screenshots of Star Wars media with some text or context that's meant to be funny and/or thoughtful. All SW media is welcome: movies, games, comic books, fanart... Other kinds of content, like video links or meta memes (about this community, or Lemmy), are fine as well, just keep it on topic.
We are all friends here, and love (sometimes love to hate) Star Wars. Be nice to each other.
As fans of fictional media, we can be passionate. If you very strongly disagree with something or someone, take a deep breath before reacting. Anger leads to the dark side!
Everything in Star Wars has happened a long time ago, in a galaxy far away, and it's a rich universe of millions of words and millions of years of history. So current Earthly matters really shouldn't concern us here. In other words, leave politics, philosophies and convictions behind the door. This applies even if it's about something related to Star Wars.
Original content is preferred. Reposts are fine, just please limit to a maximum of 3 per day, per citizen. It is recommended, but not required, to mark original memes as (OC) and reposts as (repost).
Local mods are the Jedi council. They may take actions that are necessary to maintain peace and stability of the Republic, even beyond the rules outlined here. Follow their guidance.
Regular rules of the Lemmy.world instance apply.
