I actually hope he's on his way to becoming part of the evil elite when the call-to-arms comes to him. Be a nice story arch.
Will there be a "Logan's Run" friend who has to hunt him down?

That *would* be a nice touch. I guess a resurgent Empire would be recruiting.

I think I'm just going to pick up the one tall Stormtrooper to go with Vader.
that's what I'm doing
Yeah, the tall/short thing is cool in the context of making them Han and Luke, but - actual stormtrooper height variation aside - it just looks like a wrongly posed/futzed figure when you just have a couple of stormies either side of Vader and they're noticeably different heights.

I'm only getting one as well.
One has more of a shelf presence anyway - especially when you're giving your detolf shelves some breathing space with each focus.

People who want to flank Vader with two troopers can just get two singles. People who want to army build or have some variation get the two pack. Pretty straight forward. My hope is the height of both troopers is slightly different than Sideshows to add even more variation. I'm still undecided on how many of these I'll get, but the two pack is a definite - we'l see how the prices with discounts and points fall out next year.

"Army building" at $200 a pop is so 1/6 of the moment.
You know that some people are going to end up with at least a dozen of these guys, right? Not me, but I'd expect at least a handful of people. Then there are the ballers that army build 1:1 armor.

I really need to see them in-hand before I make a final decision, but I'll stop at five or six. No less than two, though.
This was the character that got me into Star Wars 1/6. The circle is (almost) now complete.

Some collectors have massive collections; I'll never have more than 20 or so figures at most...
my thoughts exactly

This should probably be in it's own thread, but Hot Toys has a sneek peek of an Exclusive Shadow Trooper.

HT did a good job getting the gait and look right. Too expensive to army build, but I wouldn't mind a pair.

As someone whose collection is three figures, I won't opine on what even a collection of 20 is.

The Shadow Trooper has pauldron and belt ammo packs, which could mean a Sandtrooper might not be far behind...
