What… There are two types of drivers now? Or have they demoted that commander to a grunt driver?

Three, technically. The TX-225 assault tank has a crew of a commander, driver, and gunner.
Only the commander has the grey and red markings on their armor, though.
Two more ordered. Will keep them completely hidden in my closet for screen accuracy.

Just make sure one of them has their head precariously popped out of your closet to be as accurate as possible.

Of course UPS lost mine. It’s stuck in the netherworld of the force. Sideshow has to do an investigation before sending me a new one.

Sorry to hear that, doesn't happen often but when it does, it sucks.
You see, if you would have ordered a second one like I suggested, you would have received at least "one"...

That actually crossed my mind. I would probably get the second one before I get the one they lost. Sideshow is a lot of things, but if something goes wrong they always rectify the situation.

I'm trying to be really selective with my HT troopers, but this guy keeps sticking his mug out and I do like his design. Need to wait to see what SWC offers up . . .

Can't blame him; it looks really difficult to see out of that tank, especially with that helmet on.

Just unboxed mine. Really a great trooper and fits perfectly with the shores. Way better than I expected. This will be a desirable figure once it sells out. The weathering and paint is phenomenal.

Up they rise from their tombs. Interesting figures, not sure which I like the most. Kind of leaning towards SL, shoretrooper designs is pretty neat.
If you’re on the fence with any of these two and the grunt shoretrooper, I recommend going with the grunt. Now, back into the tombs you go!
Fun fact: the tank commander design was recycled from early concept art for the Deathtroopers. Concept art showing the tank commander’s helmet has it labeled as “Prologue Trooper Helmet 2A“ in The Art of Rogue One by Josh Kushins. The second photo is from an early storyboard of the opening, the label in the corner is ‘Death trooper White Version 3.’ The last photo is early Krennic concept art with a similar white Deathtrooper over his shoulder.

Very cool! I love those "Art of..." books- always a treasure trove of cool stuff.
Mine is finally on the way from BBTS. Feels like ages since my last figure. Can't wait to see it.
