59.167.74.90: /* Toys */ Reworded the joke. It really didn't read right and only provided puzzlement.

'''Blurr''' is either ''Armada'' [[Blurr (Armada)|Blurr]], a [[Velocitron]]ian, or one of several Autobot civilians in hiding on [[Earth]], depending on who one asks.

:A retool of [[Blurr (Armada)|''Armada'' Blurr]], ''Cybertron'' Blurr transforms into a sleek Cybertronic race car. As he comes with no Mini-Con, inserting his Cyber Planet Key into the space under Blurr's spoiler causes the rear side panels of Blurr's car mode to flip down into a "flight mode". This mode also makes his twin spring-loaded missile launchers available, which become hand-held weapons in robot mode. These missile launchers have been similarly retooled to remove the Powerlinx gimmick, replaced with traditional firing tabs. Blurr also features a new head, based heavily upon ''Generation 1'' [[Blurr (G1)|Blurr]].

: A bio only published on Hasbro's Transformers website indicates ''Cybertron'' Blurr is the ''Armada'' character. Although the toy package bio differs, it offers no ''explicitly'' contradictory information (though ''Armada'' Blurr was never depicted as a racing champion). Blurr is described as having stayed behind on Cybertron to protect it from the Decepticon assault in the face of the [[Unicron Singularity]]'s appearance.

==Trivia==
* Blurr has two separate Hasbro-written profiles, both of which contradict his appearance on the show. The first one [http://www.hasbro.com/transformers/default.cfm?page=Bios&phase=cybertron&faction=autobot&name=BLURR] was written at a point in time when he was to come with [[Buzzsaw (Cybertron)|Buzzsaw]] in a two-pack, and characterizes him as the character from ''Armada''. The second [http://www.hasbro.com/default.cfm?page=browse&product_id=16855] was published on his packaging and describes him as a native Velocitronian. Both bios describe him with his gruff Armada personality.

{{disambig3|Arcee}}

:''Arcee is an [[Autobot]] in the [[Generation 1]] continuity family.''

[[Image:ArceeManga1.jpg|right|250px|thumb| Hel-LO nursebot.]]

'''Arcee''' is a [[Female Transformers|female Transformer]], usually found in the same general area as her friends and fellow Autobots [[Hot Rod (G1)|Hot Rod]] and [[Springer (G1)|Springer]], both of whom she cares for deeply. The level-headed and logical one of the three, it is usually Arcee who needs to rein in the other two when their egos or attitudes are getting out of control. In addition to being a fierce warrior and talented gunner, she also just might be one of [[Rattrap (BW)|Rattrap's]] ancestors.

:''Hungarian name:'' '''Arszi'''

==Fiction==
===Generation 1 animated continuity===
''Voice actress:'' [[Susan Blu]] (US), [[Masako Katsuki]] → [[Yōko Kawanami]] (Japan)

Although there are many other female Autobots, Arcee appears to be the only one to hold any sort of rank or position amongst the forces found in Autobot City. She seems to share the same basic design as the medical bots on the planet of [[Paradron (planet)|Paradron]], implying that she may have begun her life as a medic before picking up the art of war. Certainly, during the assault on Autobot City her main role seemed to involve gathering the injured and dying Autobots (possibly for triage). Arcee was also instrumental in helping [[Springer (G1)|Springer]] transform Autobot City to repel the [[Decepticon]] invaders, buying precious time for reinforcements and likely saving many lives. She was among the few Autobots to survive [[Megatron (G1)|Megatron's]] savage blitz on the city, and was nearly left behind when [[Galvatron (G1)|Galvatron]] forced the Autobots to evacuate.

Arcee survived the attack, and the crash landing on the planet [[Junk|Junk]], all the while going to great lengths in order to protect and care for young Daniel Witwicky, a human friend of [[Hot Rod (G1)|Hot Rod's]] who had wound up on the shuttle with her. Throughout the entire battle with [[Unicron]], Daniel's safety was Arcee's top priority. The almost maternal connection between Daniel and Arcee was a powerful one, which was only strengthened some time later when they became binary bonded as [[Headmaster]] partners during an adventure on the planet [[Nebulos]].

====''The Headmasters''====

''(The Headmasters anime ignores the events from the 3-part "The Rebirth" story arc)''

In 2011, Arcee either lost her taste for combat or was slapped into her place by the male Autobots. Mostly because, through-out Headmasters, she acted as [[Fortress Maximus (G1)|Fortress']] secretary. That is not an exaggeration... she was literally his secretary, filing reports, working computers and monitoring events. At one point she wanted to leave with [[Hot Rod (G1)|Rodimus Prime]], [[Blurr (G1)|Blurr]] and [[Kup]] to search for a new homeworld after Cybertron blew up, but Rodimus told her to stay because she's a girl, and girls can't do anything but stand around and worry and make coffee for the men. During a party shortly afterward, she slow-danced with [[Chromedome]] and the pair had ''something'' resembling a mutual attraction through-out the show (at one point, Chromedome becomes aroused at seeing her transformation from a car).

'''Dammit''' Japan.

===Marvel Comics UK continuity===
[[Image:Arceeprimesrib.jpg|right|thumb|200px|They're not men, Arcee. We've been over this!]]
Arcee was constructed by the Autobots in an alternate future 1997 as a good-will attempt to placate angry humans who thought that they were "sexist" for having no women in their group. After trying multiple times to explain that Autobots, being robots, had no gender, [[Optimus Prime (G1)|Optimus Prime]] surrendered and ordered [[Wheeljack (G1)|Wheeljack]] and [[Ratchet (G1)|Ratchet]] to make a new Autobot who would meet the humans' demands for sexual equality. However, when Arcee was unveiled at a public ceremony, her pink, skinny, curvacious, and pink form enraged the very audience Prime intended to placate. [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave's]] [[Decepticon]]s immediately attacked, looking to crush the "secret weapon" that was promised. Prime warned Arcee to stay back, lest she get hurt in battle, but the female Autobot, rightfully annoyed at the Autobots' lack of faith in her equal ability, singlehandedly forced the Decepticons into a retreat. [[Hot Rod]] thought that was pretty hot. {{storylink|Prime's Rib}}

===Dreamwave comics continuity===
Arcee can be seen as a member of Hot Rod's underground rebellion team on Cybertron, battling the forces of [[Shockwave (G1)|Shockwave]]. Both Hot Rod and Springer appeared to be in love with her, though she seemed rather uninterested in both of them. In reality, Arcee was a sleeper agent for the [[Quintesson]]s.

''Due to [[Dreamwave]]'s bankruptcy, this story was never concluded. Thank god.''

===3H ''Universe: The Wreckers'' comics===
[[Image:Wrecker Arcee.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Pinkarachnia.]]

During a battle against a horde of killer [[Nightbird]]s, Daniel and Wheelie sacrificed their lives to end the threat. The death of Daniel took a serious toll on Arcee's personality, turning her into a depressed and brooding stereotype. But a ''pink'' one.

===Devil's Due ''G.I. Joe vs Transformers'' comics continuity===
She had a mutual attraction to Bumblebee and was devastated when SerpentOR Killed him.

==Toys==
===Generation 1===
: No actual transforming toy of Arcee in her original cartoon model was ever made. Images of a hand-sculpted prototype have appeared in several Takara publictions, but it appears the toy never progressed beyond that stage.

[[Image:Concept-HeadmasterArcee.jpg|right|thumb|Pinkdome.]]

: The Japanese ''[[Transformers Generations]]'' book shows a piece of concept artwork of the Headmaster [[Chromedome (G1)|Chromedome]] car in pink and white labelled "Arcee", a proposal for a redeco of the toy as Headmaster Arcee from [[Rebirth]]. (Presumably, then, this was a Hasbro-initiated idea.) The idea does not appear to have gotten any further.

===Beast Machines===
*'''Arcee''' (Mega, 2001)

: The very first true transforming Arcee toy (and currently the ''only'' official one of the Generation 1 character) is a [[redeco]] and minor [[retool]]ing of the ''[[Beast Wars]]'' [[Transmetal 2]] [[Blackarachnia (BW)|Blackarachnia]], transforming into a malformed mish-mash of machine and organic parts in the form of a large spider. The spider-mode fangs become a grappling weapon for her robot mode which extend on a retractable string. The robot mode also features a spring-powered waist-swivel for "power kick" action. Arcee lacks the retail version's additional chest armor, and the oddly-placed holes in her... well, chest, that keep the armor in place.

: Arcee was available only as an [[exclusive]] to [[BotCon 2001]], and along with [[Tigatron (BW)|Tigatron]] were the first time since the inception of [[3H]] that they were allowed to use pre-existing characters for convention exclusives. Arcee is also the first convention toy to feature retooling. Preorders recieved their Arcees with a bonus; the box contained a light-sensitive sound chip featuring voice actress [[Susan Blu]]'s voice saying "Don't underestimate me, I'm more than just a pretty face. Arcee, MAXIMIZE!". These chips are VERY light-sensitve. Many won't shut up to this day.

:''Note: Arcee's packaging does not explicitly place her in the Beast Machines toyline; however, her box uses the BM-era "Transformers" logo, and the character is placed on BM-era Cybertron; by contrast, 2001's other BotCon exclusive, Tigatron, used a box with the Beast Wars name and Transformers logo.''
