This is a great list. Good choices.

Her robot mode is also exceptional as well, even to the point where she even still has her energon crossbow integrated right into the mode.

I agree completely. She's my fave bike Transformer by far and my fave toy of any Arcee in general. I've had several of them over the years including the Black Arcee exclusive to Japan (which I miss greatly but needed money so had to sell) I love the badass biker chick thing she's kinda got going on in robot mode which suits the gorgeous alt mode perfectly.

Well for me she'd be number one cos I love her plenty as I said despite maybe some flaws in articulation (I'd like if her hands could at least open and hold something) and kibble (I like the half-tires though even if they can be a pain to secure probably and not swing down, it's mainly the front part of the bike with the windshield. I don't mind that it hangs down behind her but it makes it difficult to sit her down for poses). I'm not keen on most of the ones on the list mainly for aesthetic reasons. I don't like the cartoony Animated style and RID's style just looks too blocky for me no matter how well the engineering may have been done on those particular figures. I'd certainly have RTS Wreck Gar up there cos I never had an issue with his handlebars at all. The Prime Arcee is ok.
Oh and I had lil Brimstone and he was fun but for some reason mine snapped in several places shortly after purchasing brand new. :/
Looking at my above pic of my 2007 Arcees I'm really regretting having to had to sell the Black one. I usually don't like black repaints cos I find them dull but it works well on her especially with the other colours providing highlights and details. (and yes I did do minor repaint work on purple Arcee's head. I really like the sculpt and the 'hair' thing but she does appear to have a black moustache out of the box)
Energon Arcee was a fun figure if a little squat and chunky.

Aw, found my pic from 2008 that shows both regular and black variants together. Precious memories. Of the figures I mean. My life in 2008 was hell. Thank primus for lovely transformers figures to distract me from bad things.
Also found this old shot of purple Arcee striking a cool pose likely aiming at airborne Decepticons.

There are a variety of delightful, high quality redecos like Chromia and the Queen of the Racing World, Flareup to choose from. So find a biker lady to ride with before someone ships them out from under you.
