**''Number:'' '''002'''
**''Takara release date:'' [[December 28]], [[2011]]
**''Accessories:'' Two arm blades/motorcycle panels, stand
 
: Part of the first wave of ''First Edition'' Deluxe Class toys, Arcee transforms from a blue motorcycle to a robot and back. Arm blades stow in vehicle mode and can be plugged under Arcee's forearms in [[robot mode]]. Like all "First Edition" toys, a cardboard display stand comes assembled within the packaging.
 
: After exceptionally spotty distribution in the original release, Arcee and many of the other ''First Edition'' toys were re-released as part of a big batch of [[Toys"R"Us]] exclusives in late 2012. They later made their way to closeout chains like Ross and Marshall's.
 
: The TakaraTomy release of this toy uses a brighter shade of blue plastic, as well as slightly brighter paint applications.
 
: This mold was also used to make ''[[Transformers Timelines (toyline)|Timelines]]'' [[Transmutate (BW)#Timelines|Trans-Mutate]].

**''Series/Number:'' '''2 / 003'''
**''Takara release date:'' [[April 28]], 2012
**''Takara Number:'' '''EZ-09'''
**''Accessories:'' Blaster
 
: Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)|Prime]]'' [[Cyberverse (toyline)#Series 2|Series 2 Cyberverse]] Legion Class toys, this smaller-scale Arcee comes with a rubbery translucent-pink blaster which has numerous [[C joint|3mm peg]]s and a single peg-hole, allowing it to be held or mount onto any of her numerous ports. She has permanently-deployed battle blades on her arms in robot mode, and is largely [[scale]]-accurate with the Deluxe and Voyager toys in vehicle mode.
 
: This sculpt was also used to make [[Flamewar (Prime)|Flamewar]] and [[Transformers (2014 toyline)|''Transformers'' (2014)]] [[Groove (G1)#Transformers (2014)|Protectobot Groove]]. Her blaster, in various colors, was also used by ''Cyberverse'' [[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#Cyberverse|Bumblebee]], [[Evac (Ride)#Cyberverse|Evac]], [[Wheeljack (Prime)#Hyperspeed|Hyperspeed Wheeljack]], [[Tailgate (Prime)|Autobot Tailgate]], the [[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#CyberverseBattlesuit|redeco]] of Bumblebee that comes with the [[Bumblebee Battle Suit]], and the ''Transformers'' (2014) Groove figure, which he comes with ''2'' of them.

**''ID number'': '''EZ-SP1'''
**''Accessories'': Blaster
 
:Available for this set, this version of Arcee replaces her blue plastic with a darker shade of blue. She was released as a six-pack along with [[Bumblebee (WFC)/toys#EZ6pack|Bumblebee]], [[Bulkhead (Prime)#EZ6pack|Bulkhead]], [[Optimus Prime (WFC)/toys#EZ6pack|Optimus Prime]], [[Ratchet (WFC)#EZ6pack|Ratchet]], and [[Wheeljack (Prime)#EZ6pack|Wheeljack]].

*'''Arcee''' (Deluxe Class, 2012)
**''Series/Number:'' '''1 / 005'''
**''Takara release date:'' [[May 28]], 2012
**''Takara Number:'' '''AM-11'''
**''Accessories:'' Blaster & blade (Hasbro only), "Arc" Arms Micron (Takara only)
 
: Part of the second wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#Robots in Disguise (2012)|Prime: Robots in Disguise]]'' Deluxe Class toys, this smaller, new-mold Deluxe Class Arcee figure features a transformation that relies slightly more on fake kibble than the earlier Deluxe toy. The entire front of the bike now stores on her back, though the rest of the toy transforms very similarly (but not identically). She comes with a large blaster and one of her arm blades, both of which can mount onto her hands, forearms, and front wheel via [[5 mm post|5mm post]], as well as combine with each other. Additionally, the blades from the "First Edition" figure can mount onto thin pegs on either side of her vehicle mode.
 
: The Japanese release has new 5mm post attachments added to her wings, to go along with the [[Arms Micron]] system. As such, she loses the blaster and blade combo, and instead has her own Arms Micron, [[Arc]], who transforms into a weapon somewhat resembling her arm-blade. Most of her [[paint operation]]s also have been removed, replaced with customer-applied foil [[sticker]]s.
 
: This mold was also used for [[BotCon 2014]] [[Flareup (G1)#BotCon2014|Flareup]] and was heavily retooled into ''[[Transformers: Generations (toyline)|Generations]]'' [[Chromia (G1)#Generations|Chromia]].

: Part of the fourth wave of ''[[Transformers: Prime (toyline)#BH|Prime: Beast Hunters]]'' Deluxe Class toys, Arcee is a redeco and extensive [[retool]] of ''Prime: Robots in Disguise'' Arcee, and comes with the massive spring-loaded "[[Echohawk Bow]]", which can fire its two missiles. It can be held via its two jointed 5mm handles, as well as attach to her front wheel in vehicle mode.
 
:Her instructions include the [[Tales of the Beast Hunters Chapter 19|nineteenth chapter]] of the ''[[Tales of the Beast Hunters]]'' series.
 
: This version of the mold was also used for [[BotCon 2014]] [[Flamewar (G1)#BotCon2014|Flamewar]].

**''Pieces'': '''461'''
**''Kreons'': Arcee, Bumblebee, Optimus Prime, Ratchet, Shockwave
 
: The Command Center playset includes a Kreon of Arcee based on her ''[[Transformers: Prime (franchise)|Prime]]'' incarnation. She uses the [[Knock Out (Prime)|Knock Out]] style helmet. There's also a blue [[Wheeljack (G1)/toys#Kre-O|Wheeljack]] backpack-wing in the set that is not technically hers, but can be added to her to make her just that little bit more like the show model.
 
: The set also comes with ''Prime''-style Kreons of [[Bumblebee (Kre-O)#CommandCenter|Bumblebee]], [[Ratchet (Kre-O)#CommandCenter|Ratchet]], [[Shockwave (Kre-O)#CommandCenter|Shockwave]], and [[Knock Out (Prime)#CommandCenter|Knock Out]], and a brick-built [[Rippersnapper (Prime)#CommandCenter|Rippersnapper]] beast and [[Optimus Prime (Kre-O)#CommandCenter|Optimus Prime]] truck.

**''Accessories:'' Arc Bowgun, two missiles
 
:Part of the sixth wave of [[TakaraTomy]] ''[[Triple Combination: Transformers Go! (toyline)|Go!]]'' toys, Hunter Arcee is a [[redeco]] of the ''Beast Hunters'' Deluxe Class Arcee toy, and features a predominantly blue and black color scheme with silver and pink highlights, similar to her ''Prime'' cartoon appearance.

*'''Prime Universe Arcee''' (Deluxe Class, [[2022]])
**''TakaraTomy ID number'': '''TL-05'''
**''TakaraTomy release date'': [[August 27]], [[2022]]
**''Accessories:'' 2x [[Energon]] blades, front tire/Energon blaster
 
: Part of the first wave of ''[[Transformers: Legacy|Legacy]]'' Deluxe Class toys, "Prime Universe Arcee" is a ''Generations''-styled version of the character that transforms into a '90s-style sportbike motorcycle, much like a {{w|Kawasaki Ninja ZX-7R}}. Her accessories include two [[Energon]] blades, which can mount to her motorcycle mode, as well as form a shield in robot mode. Her front tire can be detached and split open to reveal an Energon blaster.
 
: Not documented in the instructions, the waist of the figure can clip the ball joint to the abs in robot mode, for a more stable figure, but the joint comes apart and detaches the legs from the torso easily when trying to convert back to motorcycle. Another undocumented feature is that the energy blades can attach to ''Legacy'' Skids's Axe, leading many to believe that combining weapons might be a theme across many size classes of ''Legacy'' figures, and not just the Core Class figures in the promotional/box art.

===Kinder Surprise===
*'''Transformers: Prime''' (2014)
:Only available inside a blindpacked chocolate egg as part of Kinder's ''Transformers: Prime'' series, this buildable Arcee mini-figure consists of a generic "cog" onto which her limbs and armor can be clipped to construct her. She has articulation on her shoulders and upper legs.

*'''Arcee''' (March 2021)
**''Accessories'': 2 Ion Blasters, 2 alternate hands, 2 Forearm Blades with [[Fire Blast effect|slash effects]], [[Dark Energon]] Crystal
 
:Released as part of the second wave of ''[[Transformers R.E.D.]]'' toys, Arcee is a non-transforming 6-inch action figure akin to the ones from the ''[[Marvel Comics|Marvel]] Legends'' and ''[[Star Wars (franchise)|Star Wars]] The Black Series'' lines.  She features 26 points of articulation and extensive paint operations in an attempt at [[show-accuracy]].
 
:Arcee's chest plate can be removed to reveal details meant to represent her "inner workings".  She includes two pairs of hands: two closed fists, and two open hands to hold (non-included) weapons or accessories; her hands can also be completely removed and replaced with her Ion Blaster accessories.  Also included are a pair of blade accessories that can plug into her forearms, along with two blast effects that can slide onto the blades' edges to represent a slash attack.  Finally, she also comes with a translucent, purple, cube-shaped chunk of unrefined Dark Energon ore.  Arcee's stock CG renders show her slash effects variously in the same colors as the Dark Energon crystal or her blue paint applications; the toy as released features them in unpainted grey.
 
:As with all ''R.E.D.'' toys, Arcee was a Walmart exclusive in Canada and the United States, and was later made available on [[Hasbro Pulse]] in limited quantities.

==Notes==
*A proposed [[Fun Publications]] [[BotCon]] [[exclusive]] was a redeco of [[#Robots in Disguise|''Prime: Robots in Disguise'' Deluxe Class Arcee]] into a "Femme Fatale" version of [[Cy-Kill (GoBots)|''GoBots'' Cy-Kill]].<ref>[http://www.toycollectors.com.au/bc14/bc14br.html BotCon 2014 attendee report]</ref>
 
===Arms Up Modes===
In the Japanese ''Prime'' toyline, Arcee has named powered-up modes when given various [[Arms Micron]]s in certain configurations:
 
*'''Slasher Mode''' (スラッシャーモード ''Surasshā Mōdo'')
**''Arms Microns'': Arc, B.2, B.H., C.L., O.P., R.A.
: Seen on her box-back photo, in this mode Arcee uses the [[Slash Cannon α]] on her right arm, [[Slash Cannon β]] on the other, with [[C.L.]] on her right wing and [[B.H.]] on her left.
 
*'''Crushgize Nebula Scythe''' (クラッシュジアイズネビュラーサイズ ''Kurasshujiaizu Nebyurā Saizu'')
**''Arms Microns'': Arc, B.H., Baro, Gora, O.P., R.A., Zori
: This rather overblown mode, revealed in the ''[[From the Cybertron Satellite, Transformers Division|Cybertron Satellite]]'' portion of "[[Scrapheap (episode)|Freezing Transformation!? Terror of the Minicons]]", starts with Arcee holding the [[Nebula Scythe]] Combo Weapon. Add [[Gora]] to her right wing, [[R.A.]] to her left, [[Zori]] to her back and [[Baro]] in drill mode to the end of Zori's tail, and boom! The "gize" part of the name seems to be from the word "energize".
