*The [[Scarab Gun]] is a weapon that players can pick up in ''Halo 2''; it looks like a plasma rifle and can be found on the levels "Outskirts" and "Metropolis". It fires the same plasma stream as the Scarab's main gun, never overheats, and can fire continuous rapid fire. Obtaining the Scarab gun in ''[[Halo 2 Vista]]'' rewards the player with an achievement. | *The [[Scarab Gun]] is a weapon that players can pick up in ''Halo 2''; it looks like a plasma rifle and can be found on the levels "Outskirts" and "Metropolis".

*The ''Halo 3''-era Scarab was recreated in Halo ActionClix and is the largest figure ever made by Wizkids, the game's creator. A battle-damaged version was released at the 2007 San Diego Comic-Con for $250, which included the Scarab, two outdoor maps, an indoor map (representing the Scarab's interior), four character cards, and rules for both the Scarab and the game itself. A normal one was also released at select retailers in November 2007. | *The ''Halo 3''-era Scarab was recreated in Halo ActionClix and is the largest figure ever made by Wizkids, the game's creator.

*A Scarab's explosion is extremely visible, as [[Rtas 'Vadum]] remarks how he saw the explosion of a Scarab from orbit, although it is probable that he may have been exaggerating or he was magnifying the battle from orbit. It is also possible that, due to the inclusion of both the Arbiter and the Master Chief in the battle, and the proximity to the map room on Installation 00, that he was paying particular attention to the battle. | *A Scarab's explosion is extremely visible (and damaging if close to explosion), as [[Rtas 'Vadum]] remarks how he saw the explosion of a Scarab from orbit, although it is probable that he may have been exaggerating or he was magnifying the battle from orbit.

*When Sergeant Major Johnson takes control of a Scarab in ''Halo 2'', he finds a way to deploy an energy shield that protected the control room from a boarding party. Apparently the Covenant at New Mombasa either didn't have it, didn't consider the possibility of being boarded, or it could be to allow the crew to walk outside and defend the Scarab and kill anyone who manage to get onboard. | *When Sergeant Major Johnson takes control of a Scarab in ''Halo 2'', he finds a way to deploy an energy shield that protected the control room from a boarding party.

*An older screenshot of ''Halo Wars'' shows a different Scarab model than the model in the the released game. The old version look very similar to the ''Halo 2''-era Scarab, while the new one looks more like the ''Halo 3'' variant. | *An older screenshot of ''Halo Wars'' shows a different Scarab model than the model in the the released game.
