Armada
- Blurr with Incinerator (Super-Con, 2002/2003)
- Japanese ID number: MC-08
- Blurr transforms into a sleek Cybertronic race car. In this mode, plugging his Mini-Con partner Incinerator 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 Powerlinx-activated spring-loaded missile launchers available, which become hand-held weapons in robot mode.
- The Japanese release of Blurr has several significant color differences, most notably the lack of "dirt-wash" on his car mode, clear-red canopy rather than clear-yellow, plus his head has an entirely different set of paint applications.
- Silverbolt w/ Turbo and Street Speed Microns (multi-pack, 2003)
- Japanese ID number: MS-05
Cybertron
- 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 contradictory information, even going as far as describing his personality similarly to his Armada counterpart. Blurr is described as having stayed behind on Cybertron to protect it from the Decepticon assault.
