Tree houses are the past while the Star Wars TIE Fighter playhouse is the future. A smaller version of the sci-fi spacecraft, it will make kids and adults alike feel like they are in a 'Star Wars' movie, not to mention a champion for the Galactic Empire.
A 1/3 scale model of the real thing, the Star Wars TIE Fighter playhouse can be broken down into five separate pieces for easy transport. It sports the Twin Ion Engines that gave the spacecraft its name as well as a pod that holds its occupant. The only thing disappointing about the Star Wars TIE Fighter playhouse is that it doesn't launch into space. Thankfully, this play house will provide enough room for children's imaginations to run wild.
