Pete

the Star Wars databank lists the Infiltrator as a combinatoin of early Pre-T.I.E and Lambda class shuttle technology put together in a prototype package.  It met the needs of the rising Sith apprentice and was awarded to Maul on completion of his training.

Ertl is supposed to have had a kit of it but I have not seen it, unless it was one of those tiny prepainted models that came in a small box about 3X4X1 when Ep 1 first came out.

Way Back when Ep 1 came out Estes (the rocket company) made several of the ships. Among those was a decent sized Sith Infiltrator that IMO was pretty nice. I picked one up when they hit clearance (What Ep 1 merchandise didn't) to someday repaint and spruce up a little.

Estes made alot of Star Wars ships over the years,  that IMO were sometimes a bigger, better offering than some of the kits that were available. I own several Estes rockets that someday may get rebuilt.

 

Cheers,

You can always scratch build your own. Once you get into scratch building you just can't stop, trust me. :)

that will come down to where they want to invest thier mold and R&D money.  Sometimes kits come out and then just fall flat with low sales, and the company eats it on an otherwise promising subject (alll those other ep 1 kits .........)
