StarWarsShop.com. It's being called the TIE Collection and includes two TIE Fighters, Vader's TIE Advanced and their first shot at an expanded universe vehicle, the TIE/D fighter. It's being sold for $69.99. I'm guessing it's an exclusive shared with LEGO Direct, but have not yet confirmed this.

Update: Vic from the Fan Club was kind enough to send in a quick clarification on the Galaxies poster mentioned above... "To be clear, it's not a Star Wars Galaxies poster - it's a map of the Star Wars Galaxy. While it does draw specific attention to the planets in Galaxies, it's also a good general reference, especially for Expanded Universe fiction."
