- Ion Scythe is a redeco of Transformers Prime Arms Micron Gul, which was originally released in Japan with Prime Voyager Class Starscream. Ion Scythe comes pre-assembled, lacks stickers, and features paint operations. He transforms from an eagle-robot into a bladed plasma cannon. As a redeco of an Arms Micron, Ion Scythe is covered in 5mm posts and holes, allowing him to combine with other Microns to form bigger and more ridiculous "Combo Weapons" and "Super Combo Weapons".
- Notably, Ion Scythe is the first Arms Micron figure to get a retail release for the U.S. (not counting some of the Transformers Collectors' Club's releases, which were mail-away items).
- Ion Scythe's paint operations mimic the stickers on Gul, with an exception of his eagle-robot neck, which features a different deco pattern; additionally, his crystal is cast in opaque plastic and tampographed with a Decepticon insignia.
