It’s one of the most iconic sounds of cinema history.
The classic “YIEEEAWWWWW” of the TIE Fighter as it screams through the sky.
And it’s the inspiration of our super simple, super quick Family Activity today!
Gather all willing participants and enter into a little competition as to who can make the best version of the TIE Fighter’s trademark sound.
You miiiiight want to warm up your vocal cords – just a tad. But you can also get really creative and see what household items you can use to mimic the noise. Perhaps it sounds better through a roll of wrapping paper? Or is there a squeaky chair in the office that can do a passable impression?
Top tip: To make the game a little more fun, maintain eye contact during your attempt and try not to laugh... It’s harder than it sounds!
Now, add the SMART Brick to the SMART Play™: Darth Vader's TIE Fighter™ build. As it’s an All-in-One set, the SMART Brick is included already.
Find out how to make the SMART Brick make the iconic roar of the TIE Fighter. (We won’t tell you how to do it, it’s much more fun for you to figure it out on your own)
Put it to a vote. Who screamed the best? And perhaps more importantly, what other sounds from that galaxy far, far away can they mimic as well as the SMART Brick?
Maybe the buzz of a Lightsaber™? The ‘glug glug’ of a refuelling nozzle? Or if you’re thinking right now about Darth Vader’s breathing, you are correct and wise and correct.
This game is a great way of getting kids to practice their impressions and kickstart a long Star Wars playtime!
