Well those wings are waaaaaay too small

They are tiny compared to what they should be. But the interesting thing is, is there going to be an new animated series set within the OT? If we're led to believe it is to be set after Jedi and lead us into VII then they'll barely have time to get 1 series out before 2015

        The TIEs are great for their continuation of the insect/bat characters of the Vader/TIE pilot costumes.    If they are to do another TIE predecessor, I've seen a TIE-ugly avatar on this site that I think goes in the right direction. It had cannons sticking out like pincer/fangs.  Something with tilting wings that could turn low like a bat and vertical to recall the original TIES might be cool.  A single Fighter/Attack version for dogfighting, bombing and torpedo launching with only Wing Commander markings to distinguish Ani's ship would allow concentration of developement. It'll be intersting to see what they do.

Take another look.  It's clearly not a completed drawing.  The struts are an indication of how big the wings will be - and they look in proportion to the cockpit.

So, as goes well with the crane, a TIE under construction?

Possibly. Might be a clue that the new animated series is set some time after RotS.
