This week's Bring Home the Bounty reveals on StarWars.com were very much all themed around Gaming Greats and particularly Star Wars Battlefront II.
There are ARC Troopers aplenty incoming for Star Wars fans, starting with the Umbra Operative ARC Trooper in the Black Series Gaming Greats line. The figure uses the recent Echo ARC Trooper sculpt and comes with twin DC-17 pistols. It is not clear from the limited images released so far if the helmet is removable. This Trooper will be a Gamestop Exclusive in the US, and available via the Fan Channel elsewhere.
There is a bit of a wait on this one with the release date between October and December 2022.
Umbra Operative ARC Trooper is part of the infiltrator reinforcement unit for the Galactic Republic in the multiplayer game across all 3 eras, Star Wars: Battlefront II

About Me : As a child of the '70s and '80s I grew up in a golden age for action figures and in my youth bought and sold myself through collections of Star Wars, G.I. Joe (Action Force), and M.A.S.K. while also dabbling in He-Man, Transformers and Ghostbusters. Roll forward and I am now reliving that Youth with the action figures of today and am a collector and fan of the larger 6-8 inch figures from my favourite movie and TV licenses - including the ones mentioned above, but also the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Doctor Who, and the Aliens. I launched The Mephitsu Archives in 2015 with a view of creating a UK-focused site or these figures where fans can pick up the latest action figure news, read reviews and get information on where to buy their figures and what is currently on store shelves. I hope I am delivering that to you guys...
