Dark Troopers are an elite group of combat droids programmed for maximum destruction. A far more menacing foe than their live stormtrooper counterparts, Dark Troopers are not deterred by fear, danger, or concern for their own survival while they stalk their prey.

Only the most powerful warrior or strategist would be able to take down an entire platoon. Plastic components.
