*'''Arcee''' (Autobot Car?, <s>198?</s>)

: Despite being a major character in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', no transforming toy of Arcee was made during the [[The Transformers (toyline)|original toyline]]'s run. Images of a hand-sculpted [[prototype]] based on Arcee's original character design ([[Arcee (G1)#Notes|see "Notes"]]) have appeared in several Japanese publications—including a booklet included with ''[[Transformers: The Headmasters (cartoon)|The Headmasters]]'' {{w|LaserDisc}} set and ''[[Transformers First Series Complete]]''—but it appears the toy never progressed beyond this stage.

*'''Arcee''' (Headmaster, <s>198?</s>)
[[File:Concept-HeadmasterArcee.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb|Pinkdome.]]

: The Japanese ''[[Transformers Generations (guidebook)|Transformers Generations]]'' book shows a piece of concept artwork of the Headmaster [[Chromedome (G1)#Generation 1|Chromedome]]'s car mode in pink and white, labeled "Arcee". This was evidently a proposal for a redeco of the toy as Headmaster Arcee from "[[The Rebirth]]". (Presumably, then, this was a Hasbro-initiated idea.) The idea does not appear to have gone any further.

*'''Arcee''' (Mega, 2001)
**''Accessories'': Spider-fang grappling line

: The very first true transforming Arcee toy is a [[redeco]] and minor [[retool]]ing of the ''[[Beast Wars: Transformers (toyline)|Beast Wars]]'' [[Transmetal 2]] [[Blackarachnia (BW)/toys#TM2|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 gimmick|retractable string]]. She has a special [[spark crystal]] that changes her [[insignia]] from [[Autobot]] to [[Maximal]] when rotated. The [[robot mode]] also features a spring-powered waist-swivel for "power kick" action. Arcee lacks the Blackarachnia toy's additional chest armor, and thus has 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#BotCon2001|Tigatron]] was the first time since the inception of [[3H Productions|3H]] that they were allowed to use existing characters for convention exclusives. Arcee is also the first convention toy to feature retooling. Preorders received 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 were VERY light-sensitive, with many fans finding that the box would chatter at little provocation for years afterwards.

:Both Arcee and Tigatron were limited to 1200 pieces.

*'''Arcee''' (2008)
**''ID number:'' '''BT-21'''
**''Accessories:'' Engine/gun

:Arcee is a [[redeco]] of ''[[Transformers: Alternators|Alternators]]'' [[Decepticharge]] (himself a [[retool]] of [[Windcharger (G1)#Alternators|Windcharger]]/[[Overdrive]]), using Honda's "Pearl White" for the car bodywork. The figure transforms into a "street performance" Honda S2000. Her hardtop roof can be removed for an open-top [[alternate mode|vehicle mode]] and used as a shield in [[robot mode]]. The engine and driveshaft may be removed and used as a long-barreled rifle (as the toy is Japanese issue and not subject to the same issues that removed the long barrel from the [[Hasbro]] versions of the mold).

: A redeco of this toy as [[Paradron Medic#Binaltech|Paradron Medic]] was originally planned to be released simultaneously, but was canceled. This fate also befell a redeco meant to be Arcee's occasional mold-mate [[Blackarachnia (BW)/toys#Binaltech|Blackarachnia]]. The [[robot mode]] was used as the base model for the non-toy car-form [[Legion]].

: As part of the second wave of ''[[Kre-O]]'' [[Micro-Changer]]s, [[Kreon]] Arcee can be rebuilt into a sports car. She uses the [[Ironhide (Kre-O)|Ironhide]] style helmet.

: This Collection was still in circulation at "dollar" stores and drug stores up through 2015. They eventually lost the individual-identifying bag codes, but other changes were hidden inside the bag. The 2015 releases replaced the 2x4 logo stand-brick with a new 3x4 logo plate. The Kreon was also given the slight [[retool]]ing to the arm seen in the 2014 Kreons, making the "cuff" parts more sharp-cornered and better adapted to being used as studs. Some of the add-on pieces may also be slightly off-color, possibly due to a change in factories in mid-production.

: This version of Arcee, part of the [[Kreon Class of 1984]], uses a darker magenta base color, and has much more extensively-detailed [[tampograph]]s than her Micro-Changer version, including a nose! She still uses the [[Ironhide (Kre-O)|Ironhide]] style helmet.

: She was only available in a pack of 30 Kreons dubbed "Class of 1984"... despite the fact that the character of Arcee wasn't introduced until 198''6''. Huh. This set was made for sale at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2014. Remaining stock was to be sold through the [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] online store, but the set sold out at the convention.

**''Accessories'': Stand-plate, 2 small pistols

:In 2016, the Collection 2 Micro-Changers were re-released in a whole new production run for Dollar General stores in the US as part of a large collection of re-released ''Kre-O'' sets. But where most of these releases are nigh-identical to the originals, the re-released Micro-Changer blind-bags use the almost-entirely-retooled 2015 Kreon, with slightly-differently-hued plastics than the originals. (It is possible for some of the add-on pieces to be in the older hues.) Arcee's [[paint operation]]s have also been slightly altered (much less so than most others in the collection), mostly just replacing her white paint with a very light pink.

:Sadly, this release has no individual-identification code on the bag, requiring you to use the feel-through-the-bag method or just buy blind and hope.

*'''Arcee''' (Deluxe Class, 2014)
**''Series / Number'': '''02 / #021'''
**''Accessories:'' Large gun, small gun, two swords
{{toydesigner|[[Hironori Kobayashi]] (TakaraTomy)|[[Yuki Ohshima]] (concept artist)}}

: ''[[Thrilling 30]]'' Arcee is the holy grail that, after 28 years, many thought would never happen. Unlike most ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' toys at the time, Arcee does not have an updated design or one based on the IDW comics, but instead hews to her original animated character model, transforming into a made-up "futuristic" pink and white sports car—this was done at the behest of designer [[Hironori Kobayashi]], who based the toy on [https://www.camphortree.net/tf/kitbashes/botcon_arcee.html an older custom of his] which won first price at [[BotCon Japan 1998]] and which later helped land him a job at Takara. The final design was sketched out by ''[[Transformers: Kiss Players (manga)| Kiss Players]]'' artist [[Yuki Ohshima]], who added the unsettlingly human-like hips and navel.

: Arcee is armed with a pistol based on the one she wielded in the movie, a larger gun, and a pair of translucent blue swords that pay homage to her ''[[Arcee (Animated)|Animated]]'' and IDW incarnations; all four weapons each feature several universally-sized rectangular pegs that allows them to be tabbed into multiple matching ports in her fists, forearms, hips, shoulders, and the sides and rear of her car mode. Additionally, her two guns can store beneath her car mode, though this is not mentioned in her instructions. A mixup on the part of the photographer meant the smaller pistol does not appear in Arcee's [[stock photography]], but rather that of her [[wave]]-mate Chromia. Thanks to an extra transformation joint in her upper thighs, Arcee's legs are very posable, and can even be crossed. Arcee's paint, in particular the pink paint on her thighs and the white paint on the car's grille, is susceptible to chipping and flaking off if care is not taken.

: The initial release of Arcee had closed fists that proved a very tight fit for her weapons' unique pegs.  A [[variant#Running changes|running change]] to the sculpt altered her forearm pieces to feature her hands in an open position, and with shorter thumbs, to allow more clearance.  Unfortunately, a protrusion added to the lower end of the later version's hands to reduce fragility prevents the handles of her weapons from being fully inserted.<ref name="genvariant">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wW-3CB5EbQY Comparison of both variants of ''Generations'' Deluxe Class Arcee] at YouTube.</ref>  This second variant of the toy was the basis of most (but not all) future uses of this mold, including additional Arcees below, ''[[Transformers Legends (franchise)|Legends]]'' [[Nightbird (G1)#Legends|Nightbird Shadow]], [[Transformers Figure Subscription Service|Figure Subscription Service 5.0]] [[Lifeline (G1)#Combiner Wars|Lifeline]] and ''[[Street Fighter II × Transformers]]'' [[Chun-Li#Toys|Chun-Li]]. Her weapons were also used for [[Impactor (G1)#TFSS|Figure Subscription Service 4.0 Impactor]].

*'''Combiner Hunters''' (Multi-pack, [[July 9]], 2015)
**''Accessories:'' 2 swords, [[Combiner Slayer]] sword

:''Combiner Hunters'' Arcee is a [[black repaint|mostly-black]] [[redeco]] of ''Thrilling 30'' Arcee, notable for its new accessory: a gigantic "Combiner Slayer" sword redecoed from the larger ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#BH|Beast Hunters]]'' Ultimate Class [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#Ultimate|Optimus Prime]] figure.  Said Optimus is ''much'' bigger than Arcee, meaning that the sword is both taller and wider than she is, neccessitating a [[retool]] to Arcee's forearms to allow her hands to hold [[5 mm post|5 mm compatible weaponry]].  Unfortunately, her grip is on the looser side, especially with this mold's original weapon set, of which only the two swords are provided with this release.

:Arcee's stock photos show a slightly different deco to the final toy, lacking the pink and blue stripes on her vehicle mode, featuring a white crotch and biceps, and having the Autobot insignia on her cheek in red rather than the final toy's pink.

:This version of Arcee was only available in a [[giftset|gift set]] together with ''Combiner Hunters'' redecos of ''Generations'' [[Windblade (G1)#Combiner Wars|Windblade]] and [[Chromia (G1)#Combiner Wars|Chromia]], each with their own giant new melee weapons. In the U.S., this set was [[exclusive]] to the [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] website and the Hasbro Toy Shop booth at [[San Diego Comic-Con]] 2015. In Asia, it was also available at [[Animation-Comic-Game Hong Kong]] 2015 and subsequently stocked by [[Toys"R"Us]] Hong Kong. Later, it was also available at The Falcon's Hangar booth at Singapore Toy, Game & Comic Convention 2015.

:Part of Hasbro's ''[[Transformers: Platinum Edition|Platinum Edition]]'' offerings for 2016 intended to commemorate the 30th anniversary of ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'', Arcee is a redeco of the [[#Generations|''Thrilling 30'' Deluxe Class toy]], with the running change variant's open hands.  Like her ''Legends'' release, Arcee replaces all her black plastic parts and paint operations with either white, grey or pink, though her animation-accuracy is hindered by her paintjob's metallic finish. Stock renders show her with a metallic pink crotch, though the final toy has it in white.

:Arcee was released as part of five-pack with [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#Platinum Edition|Ultra Magnus]] (including [[Minimus Ambus#Platinum Edition|Minimus Ambus]]), [[Springer (G1)/toys#Platinum Edition|Autobot Springer]], [[Kup (G1)/toys#Platinum Edition|Sergeant Kup]], and [[Blurr (G1)/toys#Platinum Edition|Blurr]].

:''[[Titans Return (toyline)|Titans Return]]'' Arcee is a fairly extensive [[retool]] of ''Titans Return'' Deluxe Class [[Blurr (G1)/toys#TitansReturn|Blurr]], transforming into a futuristic hovercar. She comes with a new [[Titan Master]], Leinad ("Daniel" backwards) who forms her robot head and fits into her cockpit. Her vehicle mode has small wheels that allow her to roll on any hard surface and a pair of smaller pegs that allow other Titan Master figures to stand on her. Her new shield/hood piece can be piloted by a Titan Master and also stow Arcee's two new weapons, which are sculpted with smaller handles in a way that they can actually be held by all the previous versions of the character. Arcee is also packaged with a solo Titan Master [[Ultra Magnus (G1)/toys#HasCon|Ultra Magnus]]. 

:Arcee debuted at [[HasCon 2017]], this being described as an "advanced" sale ahead of a later standard release.<ref>[http://io9.gizmodo.com/hasbros-own-convention-will-sell-you-a-giant-transforme-1797331311 Hasbro's Own Convention Will Sell You a Giant Transformer That Actually Charges Your Phone]</ref> The set was then made available on [[Hasbro Toy Shop]] on September 20th, 2017–selling out in approximately one hour–and then at [[Toys"R"Us]] and [[New York Comic Con]] 2017 beginning on October 5th, 2017.

{{toydesigner|[[Ken Christiansen]] (concept artist)}}

:Part of a second wave of ''[[War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Earthrise]]'' Deluxe Class toys, this mold of Arcee transforms into her classic futuristic car mode and is armed with a clear blue blaster. In contrast to the 2014 ''Thrilling 30'' [[#Generations|Arcee mold]] which incorporated the chest and legs into the vehicle mode, this ''Earthrise'' toy is a true [[shellformer]], the entire humanoid body folding up underneath a vehicle mode shell, which becomes a sizeable backpack for her robot mode. She utilizes a faux vehicle center-front for the chest, with the real part folding down behind her head. Part of the backpack (the rear half of her car shell) is designed to detach to act like a hoverboard that robot-mode Arcee can ride, by pegging her feet onto the 3 mm posts on the board designed to accommodate the ''War for Cybertron'' Fire Blast effect parts. Arcee has notably few such posts for her size, and has a similarly small number of [[5 mm post|5 mm]] [[C.O.M.B.A.T. System]] ports. The lack of a 5 mm port on her back in both backpack configurations means she cannot on her own recreate [[Cog (G1)|Cog]] weaponizing her as seen in the ''[[Transformers: War for Cybertron Trilogy (cartoon)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' cartoon. A new accessory packed with [[Security Officer | Red Cog]] would later allow this combination.

:In vehicle mode, Arcee's blaster can be attached to either of her front fenders or stored out of sight beneath her hood. In robot mode, it can be stored on a port on her butt, or plug into the fender ports on her back once the hoverboard is removed. Though the figure has standard 5 mm fist holes, the blaster's handle is molded in the unusual flattened shape used by ''Thrilling 30'' and ''Titans Return'' [[#Titans Return|Arcee]].

:Many fans have taken it upon themselves to knock out the pin holding the backpack joint together in order to have a complete vehicle mode separate from the robot mode. 

:The original stock renders have a few different paint applications compared to the final toy, depicting the car mode with grey coloring on the side panels, and the back half of the waist being painted pink and grey to match the front. Additionally, the connector that links the hoverboard to the rest of her backpack is colored pink instead of white and is attached to the backpack instead of the board.

:Like all ''Earthrise'' toys, the inside of the back of Arcee's package includes an exclusive clip-and-save piece of a larger space map, along with a translucent red "decoder". Arcee's piece contains the labeled location of [[Master (planet)|DOMINUS]]. Like most ''Earthrise'' figures from wave 2, it is misprinted and overlays the "decodable" red graphics from the map piece included with ''Earthrise'' [[Hoist (G1)/toys#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Hoist]] on top of the details unique to Arcee's piece.

:Arcee was redecoed into [[Lifeline (G1)#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|Lifeline]] and retooled into ''[[War for Cybertron Trilogy (toyline)|War for Cybertron Trilogy]]'' [[Elita One (G1)#War for Cybertron Trilogy|Elita-1]].

:''[[The Transformers: Masterpiece|Masterpiece]]'' Arcee is an all-new mold that transforms from a robot into a Cybertronian car, though the robot mode favors a leaner and slender design as opposed to directly replicating the original animation model, a rare move in modern ''Masterpiece'' figures. Aside from her blaster, Arcee also comes with a rifle, an assortment of alternate faces, a holster for the smaller blaster, a pistol, effect parts for her blasters, and a drill arm based on the one she used to stop a Junkion during the chase in the movie. In addition, the figure's head has a foldout visor from the movie. Much like MP-46 [[Blackarachnia (BW)/toys#Masterpiece|Blackwidow]], Arcee's design hyper-emphasizes feminine stylings and enhanced poseability, also extending to her hands.  ''Unlike'' MP-46, however, Arcee's stylization goes to the point of neglecting screen accuracy, having a sculpt which forgoes the animation model's wider, slightly boxy stomach and waist while also giving her a much wider (and lower) bust.  Not to mention the extremely arched back.

:This mold was also retooled into [[Nightbird_(G1)#Masterpiece|Nightbird]].

:Released as the sole figure in the fifth wave of ''Authentics'' "Bravo Class" figures, ''[[Transformers Authentics|Authentics]]'' Arcee is a roughly-Scout-sized mold that is developed for the discount market. She changes from robot to a Cybertronian car that borrows design cues from her ''Earthrise'' and ''Cyberverse'' Deluxe toys. Her blaster can be stored on top of her vehicle mode where it cleverly doubles as the antennae-like device that usually adorns the top of G1 Arcee's vehicle mode.

:Unlike many of her Deluxe iterations, this version of Arcee does not utilize [[shellformer|shellforming]] in order to change forms, however she lacks feet and is a little back heavy for her size, so her stability is questionable. Her legs can be locked into a more stable position if her knees are hyperextended. She features a decent range of articulation on her upper body, though her knees can only move sideways due to her transformation scheme.

{{toydesigner|[[Evan Brooks]] (Hasbro), [[Hisashi Yuki]] (TakaraTomy)}}<ref>Evan Brook's [https://www.instagram.com/p/CeWB8GAu_A3/ Instagram post] about ''Studio Series'' 86 Arcee</ref>

:Part of the seventeenth wave of ''[[Studio Series]]'' Deluxe Class toys, Arcee is, surprisingly enough, ''not'' a redeco of the [[#War for Cybertron: Earthrise|''Earthrise'' toy]], but rather an extensive retool of the eight-year-old [[#Generations|''Thrilling 30'' toy]]. She features an entirely new lower body and back half of the car, in service of adding the ''War for Cybertron Trilogy'' standard of articulation to robot mode and a more accurate vehicle mode. Her new forearms are directly based on those of her [[#Combiner Wars|''Combiner Hunters'' toy]], now altered to remove the weapon mounts on the sides and increasing the gripping surface of her [[5 mm post]]-compatible hands.  She retains the ''Thrilling 30'' toy's smaller blaster accessory, which can holster on her thighs or mount over her shoulders as on the original toy. The blaster stores under the rear of the car mode in a manner similar to ''Thrilling 30'''s.

:Arcee's waist hinges, while giving her rare ab crunch articulation, do not lock in securely and can come apart when handling. Like her ''Earthrise'' predecessor, the rear of the car/backpack on this toy can also be detached as it is on a simple friction hinge. However, it does not seem to be an intentional feature and repeated removal may wear down the connection.

:Like the other ''Studio Series'' toys, the interior of the package forms a display backdrop, with it depicting the Battle of Autobot City.

:Arcee and her wave-mates were revealed by TakaraTomy on [[May 10]], 2022, and set for pre-order in Japanese markets, unusually before Hasbro.

===''Super High-Breed Model''===
[[File:Hybrid model arcee.jpg|thumb|upright=1.66|Arcee pets a dog. (Dog not included.)]]
*'''Arcee''' (1987)
**''ID number:'' '''H-03'''

:Arcee was one of three non-transforming ''[[Super High-Breed Model]]'' vinyl figurines created in 1987 by Takara. Standing at about eight inches tall and featuring articulation in the neck and shoulders, Arcee and her fellows (Rodimus Prime and Galvatron) were based on their [[Studio OX]] character models, featuring much more anime-styled proportions and detailing.

:For reasons unknown, the retail release of Arcee and the other ''Super High-Breed Model'' figures was canceled. While Galvatron was eventually released as an exclusive at [[BotCon Japan 1997]], Arcee and Rodimus have never been officially released, though they do occasionally pop up on the secondary market, commanding prices in excess of $600.

*'''Arcee''' (1996)

:This Japanese "garage kit", an unpainted resin model, was made by [[MC Axis]] and was also the first official product of Arcee that got a retail release. Included among its paperwork is a [[The Transformers (MC Axis manga)|comic strip]] starring Arcee. It is not known for its exceptional quality control—numerous unsightly air bubbles in the plastic are not an uncommon thing to encounter.

:The resin parts need to be washed '''first''' to prevent the paint from smearing off.

*'''Arcee''' (2000)
**''Act'': '''1'''
**''Accessories'': Stand

: A three-inch tall [[plastic|PVC]] figurine of Arcee was available in the first wave of Takara's ''[[Heroes of Cybertron|Super Collection Figure]]'' line. She is armed with her pistol from the scene in ''[[The Transformers: The Movie]]'' where she shoots at [[Unicron]]'s internal defenses. Like all the figures in the "Act", she was available as both a standard full color figure and a colorless translucent version, one of each of which was available in a standard case of twelve [[blindpacking|blindpacked]] figures.

:Arcee was [[redeco]]ed to create the chase figure for the eighth wave of the series, the [[Paradron Medic#Super Collection Figure|Paradron Medic]].

{{anchor|SCFwDaniel}}
*'''Arcee (with Daniel)''' (2001)
**''Act'': '''4'''
**''Accessories'': Stand

:The Arcee figurine was re-released, with no notable changes, as part of the fourth wave of the ''Super Collection Figure'' series, now packaged with a figure of [[Daniel Witwicky (G1)#Super Collection Figure|Daniel Witwicky]] in his [[exosuit]]. Amusingly, this box comes with ''two'' stands, one for each figure.

: The pair were available in both full color and metallic "pewter" versions, with one of each in every case. In eight out of every ten cases, the pewter version of the set came with the body of the line's collectible [[Metroplex (G1)#Super Collection Figure|Metroplex]] "build-a-figure", with that assembly coming in either full-color or clear-plastic at an equal 4-to-4 ratio.

: The pewter version of the figure has a potential problem with connector peg breakage, due to said pegs often getting a layer of pewter paint before being forced into a socket, leading to sticking and tearing. Care should be used when moving or removing the arms; shaving down the socket interior with a thin hobby knife is usually sufficient to fix the issue.

===''Heroes of Cybertron''===
[[File:HOC Arcee.jpg|upright=1.66|thumb]]
*'''Arcee''' (2002)

: When Hasbro released the ''Super Collection Figure'' line as ''[[Heroes of Cybertron]]'', the Arcee figure was released as part of the first wave, now featuring a [[light-piping]] gimmick in the character's eyes, accomplished by casting the figure in translucent blue plastic and then painting over it. There are other small but significant changes to her deco; most notably her midriff detailing is now painted red (a detail the SCF oddly misses), her blaster now has a black barrel rather than dark gray, her pinks and grays are darker, and her whites are considerably brighter.

: Rather than come blindpacked like the ''SCF'' figure, Arcee came on a blister card with a profile card included.

: This mold was later [[redeco]]ed to make the ''Heroes of Cybertron'' [[Paradron Medic#Heroes of Cybertron|Paradron Medic]].

:Released in the first wave of the ''[[MyClone]]'' line of Transformers PVC figures, this [[super deformed]] Arcee comes with a hexagonal white display stand, which can link up with the identical stands included with other ''MyClone'' figures. Her modular design allows her parts to be mixed and matched with those of any other MyClone figure.

Standing around 6" tall, Arcee was limited to 2000 pieces worldwide.

:The Arcee statue was later repainted into that old standby, the [[Paradron Medic]].

She is featured packing two of the style of pistol she is commonly seen with and looking off to one side.

*'''Autobot Warrior Code Name: Arcee''' (2017)
**''Accessories'': 2 laser pistols, Autobot Sky Spy unit, display base
:This figure represents Arcee's [[synthoid]] human body seen in the [[The Transformers (cartoon)|original cartoon]] season 3 episode "[[Only Human]]". It consists mostly of a combination of redecoed parts from existing ''[[G.I. Joe (franchise)|G.I. Joe]]'' figures; namely, the torso, waist, and upper legs of the 2011 ''Renegades'' version of [[Scarlett]], the arms and hands of the 2009 ''G.I. Joe Set'' version of [[Lady Jaye]], and the lower legs and feet of [[Agent Helix]] from the 2009 ''Rise of Cobra'' line. The only new part is the head sculpt, which faithfully recreates the look of the Arcee synthoid from "Only Human", down to the animators' misinterpretation of the "buns" on the sides of robot Arcee's head (which were inspired by Princess Leia's iconic hair buns in the original 1977 ''Star Wars'' film) as one single piece of woven hair that wraps around the back of her head.

:Her accessories are redecos of the UAV drone that originally came with the 2013 ''Retaliation'' [https://www.yojoe.com/action/13/dataviper.shtml Data-Viper] figure, reinterpreted as a [[Sky Spy]] unit, and the guns from the same Agent Helix figure that also donated her lower legs and feet for this figure. The included display base/stand is the generic 2013 ''Retaliation'' version, with a tampographed Autobot insignia.

:Despite being branded only as a ''Transformers'' product, this figure was exclusively available through both Fun Publications' ''G.I. Joe'' and [[Transformers Collectors' Club|''Transformers'' Collectors' Club]] online stores.

It was first revealed at the Japanese 2014 Transformers Expo alongside [[Elita One (G1)#EX Gōkin|Elita One]] but has not been shown again since Wonder Festival 2015, leaving its release uncertain.

:Given the inclusion of the four Rescue Bots, it was ''probably'' unclear if this Arcee is mean to represent her ''Generation 1'' counterpart or her ''[[Arcee (WFC)|Aligned]]'' counterpart.
