Set 75179, “Kylo Ren's TIE Fighter”, represents Kylo Ren’s personal TIE fighter in the LEGO Star Wars theme. Released in 2017, it contains 630 pieces and belongs to the range of spacecraft and character based sets from the saga.

This model builds Kylo Ren’s TIE fighter, a First Order craft from the Star Wars universe. Within the LEGO Star Wars theme, it belongs to the sequel era and presents a dark, angular profile that separates it from the more familiar Imperial TIE fighter designs.

The build uses 630 pieces and combines a central body with large side panels. The set therefore pairs the main spacecraft with characters from the same factional setting, while keeping the focus on the vehicle itself.

It suits builders who want to stage First Order scenes, display a recognizable Star Wars ship, or add a Kylo Ren related model to a LEGO Star Wars collection. Among other sets in the theme, it is best viewed as a vehicle focused entry, supported by a small character selection that gives context to the craft.
