Here’s the latest ARC Trooper, ARC Trooper Lambent Seeker from Battlefront 2.

Retails for $15.99, not up for sale just yet.

What’re your thoughts on this figure?

I like it because it's rather simple but detailed deco, it also reminds me of Blitz who we apparently aren't going to get if they went with this unknown. I like the use of gray and yellow trim.

Curious though they could have added one more to the mix and just done a 4 pack for $42, instead they go with singles at $16 each. Either they're very limited production or Hasbro is playing the overpriced repaint game again. That said since they're based on BF2 it makes sense to put them the the Gaming Greats line that's full of overpriced repaints. However, if it get us Cal Kestis or better yet Jaro Topal I don't mind buying a few more ARC Troopers.

I don’t have faith that all these Gaming Greats repaints will get us Cal Kestis or Jaro Tapal in TVC. TBS has had plenty of repaints and kitbashes, but still no Darth Malak, Starkiller, Bastila Shan, etc.

Seems as if perhaps this was the only one not an Exclusive which is why it's more readily available, essentially a hassle not to be able to order all three at once.

FWIW, I just received the "your pre-order is almost ready," email from Gamestop for these. Considering they're only about 50/50 for hitting their published release dates, I'm curious if these will actually ship on time. I'm doubtful considering in-hand images haven't even leaked yet, at least I haven't seen any.

back of card for BBTS exc ARC and Umbra ARC show they are #235 and #237 respectively. so Lambent is likely #236. Of interest, cardback shows Lando and Shea as well...could Lando be w/in #228 and #239? pics from bossk's bounty

The thing I noticed while watching that was were starting to get closer and closer to 300 and was wondering if Hasbro has anything special planned for it? Considering what they did for POTF 300th Special Edition Boba Fett, and then the 500th being Darth Vader in chamber?

I would be curious as to who they would pick this time around and what they do to make it special, other than being an overpriced Exclusive repaint. lol

We likely have another two years if we get 30 figures per year so certainly a ways off but it will be here before you know it! Any thoughts, OT, PT or new media as the candidate?

I don't expect Hasbro to mark the occasion really. I mean, I suppose they could but I don't really think there'll be anything. 500 might be a milestone where we'd see Hasbro commemorate the number of VC figures. In all honesty???...It sorta feels like we should be at around 500 I guess because of all the reissues. That's not a bad thing to me either, but it seems like we've had waaaaaaaaaay more than 2 hundred and whatever.

Technically we have since they picked up where TVC 1.0 left off and there was TBS 3.75" line in between with several figures that hadn't been reissued in TVC 2.0 yet, so we're probably already at 300 or more.

The neon colors were a turnoff. Easy pass for me.

There’s still no sign of these. I guess we just have to wait a bit longer…

Guess I should have went with DS for this, but since I've been waiting months for other orders I thought I'd move away form them for spell. Hopefully BBTS will ship this and the red one soon after!

Yeah. I went w/ bbts mainly because of thier red excl ARC and pile of lot option. Then when they offered EE's bumble-bee ARC, it was a no-brainer to have all 3 preordered at bbts and pay only $4 plus bbts $2 mark up than EEs 15$ or more shipping costs
