'''Basic Trope''': The villains keep attacking the hero, despite the futility of it being general knowledge.
* '''Straight''': The [[GangOfHats Gang of the Lampshades]] unloads their pistols and machine-guns on [[FlyingBrick Amazing Girl]], despite the media having shown several times that she's {{immune to bullets}}.
* '''Exaggerated''':
** The Gang of the Lampshades unloads several anti-tank rifles, a Gatling gun, a rocket launcher, an experimental WaveMotionGun, several grenades and a mini-nuke on Amazing Girl, despite her telling them that all that will [[{{Intangibility}} just phase through her]].
** A member of the gang charges Amazing Girl bare-handed, despite having just seen her shrug off a cruise missile.
* '''Downplayed''':
** Amazing Girl IS immune to bullets, shotguns shells, rockets and what have you, but the force of the impact still knocks her back.
** Amazing Girl has been proven to still fight while BroughtDownToBadass, relying on a mix of her reputation and BoxingLessonsForSuperman training to still save the day, so some crooks still shoot just in case they get lucky enough to catch her depowered. Once she shows that no, she isn't depowered this time, they immediately surrender.
* '''Justified''':
** The impressive lead-waste is [[BatmanGambit a distraction to allow the rest of the gang to escape]] with the bounty. [[MacGuffin It is just THAT important]].
** The criminals are just panicking at Amazing Girl's presence and relying on instinct.
** They know it won't do anything but they [[HonorBeforeReason won't go down]] [[DefiantToTheEnd without a fight]].
** They once saw Amazing Girl be wounded by another guy with a gun. Of course, they don't know the specific details of the event, but they know that a MillionToOneChance exists and they may as well see if they are lucky.
** The bullets are trick bullets with trackers in them. The objective isn't to injure Amazing Girl, but to track her down.
** Amazing Girl is just getting started as a superhero, and there are still many criminals who don't know what she's capable of.
** StupidCrooks
** The criminals are WrongGenreSavvy and believe that Amazing Girl can be defeated with ImmunityAttrition.
* '''Inverted''':
** [[BadassNormal Amazing Girl]] keeps fighting with the Gang of the Lampshades [[{{Determinator}} despite being fully aware that their guns can easily kill her]].
** The Lampshade Gang insists on wearing bulky, cumbersome armor despite knowing that Amazing Girl's EyeBeams can cut through every material known to man.
** The goons [[LogicalFallacies fall upon]] the [[UsefulNotes/LogicalFallacies "No Limits" Fallacy]] and decide that because Amazing Girl survived being shot once (without consideration of any possibilities like [[BulletproofVest Kevlar]], it was not a direct hit, that they shot her with the LittleUselessGun or that it was JustAFleshWound and Amazing Girl is MadeOfIron so she can bluff it was useless) she is completely invulnerable and give up.
* '''Subverted''':
** [[SmugSuper Amazing Girl mocks]] the Gang of the Lampshades on their intent to shoot her. But her arrogance turns into despair when she finds out they have loaded their guns with [[DepletedPhlebotinumShells Troperium coated bullets]], her one [[KryptoniteFactor fatal weakness]].
** Amazing Girl mocks the Gang of the Lampshades on their intent to shoot her. [[DefeatByModesty But her arrogance turns into embarrassment]] when she finds out the bullets were coated in [[TheNudifier a clothing disintegrating solution]].
* '''Double Subverted''':
** The Gang of the Lampshades loads their guns with Troperium coated bullets just in case Amazing Girl shows up. She does... [[NoSell Encased in a concealing full-body]] [[KryptoniteProofSuit anti-Troperium armor suit]].
** Of course, the moment the Gang of the Lampshades turns those guns towards innocent bystanders, Amazing Girl [[FullFrontalAssault decides giving everybody an eyeful is an acceptable price for kicking the Gang's asses]].
* '''Parodied''':
** After running out of bullets, they [[ThrowAwayGuns throw their guns]]. Then the loot. Then their {{shoes|lap}}. Then a [[KitchenSinkIncluded kitchen sink.]]
** Alternatively, they throw the gun, then the hero is stunned.
** ''[[RuleOfThree Alternatively]]'', it's the ''shoe'' that does her in.
* '''Zig Zagged''': Sometimes the villains try to shoot down Amazing Girl, with no effect; sometimes they actually manage to injure her with the appropriate equipment; sometimes she's actually prepared to counter said equipment; and sometimes the villains are just [[BringMyBrownPants too scared to do anything]].
* '''Averted''':
** Amazing Girl busts into the bad guys hideout, the bad guys, realizing that can't really do anything to her, drop their guns and surrender.
** The crooks split up and run for it, hoping Amazing Girl won't be able to keep track of them all.
* '''Enforced''': "The fans of [[TheFilmOfTheSeries the original series]] already know that Amazing Girl is immune to bullets, but we needed an impressive way show how unstoppable she really is. You cannot deny that taking a rocket to the face with a smile and going unharmed after it is badass no matter how many times you see it"
* '''Lampshaded''':
** "You know something? For a moment there, I actually thought that'd work."
** "Careful now. [[BetterToDieThanBeKilled You may want to save one of those for yourself...]]"
* '''Invoked''':
** Evulz asks his minions to shoot at Amazing girl's EvilKnockoff, in order to prove how close it is to the original.
** Evulz is [[ContractualGenreBlindness the kind of jackass]] (and [[TheMobBossIsScarier a very intimidating one, at that]]) who will severely punish any minions that do not try to shoot Amazing Girl even if they would otherwise perform his assignments flawlessly by just not wasting their time/effort/ammo/lives doing this.
** Amazing Girl carries a gun, to goad her enemies into shooting at her to demonstrate her invulnerability.
* '''Implied''': Amazing Girl stands in front of a hostage taker and the man points his gun at her. She [[FascinatingEyebrow raises her eyebrow]] and gives him a look that can only mean "really?".
* '''Exploited''': The Gang of the Lampshades' Boss ordered [[SmugSnake Dirty Jack]] to shoot Amazing Girl if she showed up, despite being fully aware it won't work. [[TheUriahGambit He's expecting to get rid of him]] that way.
* '''Defied''':
** When Amazing Girl shows up to stop the Gang of the Lampshades, their own leader orders them [[GracefulLoser to drop their weapons surrender peacefully]]. It's not worth fighting a lost battle.
** When Amazing Girl shows up, the head Lampshade orders the gang to save their bullets and just run like hell.
* '''Discussed''': "Bullet to the face, again? Just typical; everyone receives me with a bullet to the face. [[DudeWheresMyRespect Why cannot someone give me a little token of appreciation for a change?]] It would be more civilized."
* '''Conversed''': "All those wasted bullets, it's kinda sad to think they could have been used to hunt something delicious or to assassinate a CorruptPolitician"
* '''Deconstructed''':
** The escalating {{arms race}} initiated due to the necessity of effective weapons against super-beings leads to a generation of super-criminals [[CrooksAreBetterArmed capable to decimating the forces of order with extreme ease]]. There are simply not enough super-heroes capable of stopping this new breed of highly-prepared villains.
** The arms race results in one side or the other acquiring nukes capable of destroying cities just to have a chance at making a dent in the other side, and the other side getting armor ready to withstand TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt.
* '''Reconstructed''':
** In a world where the [[ReedRichardsIsUseless Super Geniuses are not useless]], the [[SuperCop standard forces of order]] eventually get equipped with high-end technology capable of withstanding their enemies' weapons with relative ease. That won't dissuade the most [[{{Determinator}} obstinate]] ([[StupidCrooks or brain-dead stupid]]) of crooks from shooting, but the good guys will be safe.
** The weapons that can kill superhumans each have their own weaknesses, and [[OurMonstersAreDifferent most weapons only work on a few superhumans rather than all types of invulnerability.]] Thus, rather than a LensmanArmsRace, it's TacticalRockPaperScissors, leading only to a modicum of escalation. And whenever the Muggle side makes a tactical error, this trope occurs....
* '''Played For Laughs''':
** Amazing Girl is so impossible to hurt that she has painted a literal target on her chest and likes to act like aiming a gun at her is like grabbing a ball in a carnival game.
** Amazing Girl cannot be ''killed'' with bullets but she is ''ticklish''. Crooks blast away with machine guns and after a couple of minutes she is rolling on the ground guffawing her lungs out and asking them to stop.
* '''Played For Drama''':
** Amazing Girl is bulleproof herself but the people surrounding her aren't. Several times she's had to let a crook go, even if only for a few seconds, because the risk of a ricochet hurting someone in a crowd was too great.
** Amazing Girl [[CombatSadomasochist gets off on getting shot and demonstrating she's invulnerable.]] This can be pretty unnerving to both the shooter (because he can't hurt her) and other onlookers (because of the indecency).
* '''Played For Horror''': It's a BewareTheSuperman scenario. Anybody who encounters Amazing Girl without the necessary hardware is better off blowing their own brains out instead of suffering whatever she is going to do to them.
