The 8087 TIE Defender is a Lego® Star wars set based on a fighter from the Expanded Universe. The set was released in 2010. It's minifigs include a TIE Pilot with a new helmet design and a Stormtrooper. The TIE Defender ship had an opening cockpit that, on the inside, has a space to place a minifigure. The cockpit and pieces are much like the Darth Vader's Tie Fighter set. It has three thin wings, broken up into two pieces. Each wing has a grey, flick-fire missile on the end.
