Did anyone notice this?
During the opening space battle if you look closely at Anakin's starfighter. The Galactic Republic symbol on his ship only has 6 prongs, like the Imperial symbol.
Obi-Wan's had the 8 prong, which is how it is supposed to look. Do you think it was a mistake, or something the film makers threw in their as a little visual easter egg? A foreshadowing of events to come.

They are the predecessors to the TIE's.

It's located on the right wing.
When viewing the movie the logo is seen on the left side of the screen.

I think Vader merely designed his tie fighter, just as how his starfighter always looked different.

Oh, wait, I understand now....
EU material has always stated that Vader designed his TIE Advanced x/1 Fighter, (seen in ANH)....I thought that Hegemon875 meant the normal TIEs....

It's not the Imperial per say, the outer circle of the insignia is still the Galactic Republic outer circle.
