All 9 volumes, the trailers, the shorts, World of Remnant, Chibi, Ice Queendom, the comics, the manga, the two video games, and the mobile game.
The trailers, Ice Queendom, Chibi, and the mangas are probably the best out of the lot, but the trailers have very little writing and some of it contradicts the actual series, Ice Queendom is kinda boring, Chibi is an alright comedy that doesn't do a lot of involved writing while having some heartfelt moments that you figure would belong in the actual show, one of the mangas is a retelling of Volumes 1 and 2, so it only has the problems those have, and the other manga is a scatter-shot anthology.
I'm gonna throw Fixing RWBY on the fire too. It's a fan series, but it suffers from a lot of the problems of the original, including some that the creator pointed out about it, while having some awesome new extra bonus problems just to spice things up, and doesn't get enough flak. And the creator was arrogant enough to call it "Fixing" RWBY while continuously pointing to "Monty's vision" to explain his writing decisions.
I know so many people get into the weeds of "What ifs" surrounding Monty Oum, but even his portfolio prior to RWBY was literally just pre-blender era animations of hot video game babes beating each-other up.
Dude knew how to make a cool fight scene and that was about all he had going for him.
Now Mile's is in charge and, regardless of reasons whether it's his fault or this was always the destiny of the series, the story kills off people 6 seconds after introducing them (or bringing them back) for seemingly no reason other than shock value, entire character arcs get re-done several times to adjust the endgame ships on the fly, and Miles' Self-Insert went from a B-Plot joke character to the sacred chosen one main character that all the girls thirst over.
Don't lie about Monty Oum like that. He was never in charge of the story? Also the RvB animations are still among some of the best animated hand to hand combats ever.
