Ok the new pic is just a very bad photoshop job that flat out sucks and is a complete mess.

Here is the old pic before it was changed.


Also there is this

Being ridiculously cramped up and messy was EXACT THE REASON why I chose that picture, but oh well.

The Endless Waltz version of the Gundam Heavyarms seems perfect for this. Would the bottom panel of this work alright? There's also this or this, too.

[up] Too dark, and I can only clearly see a couple of weapons. Along the same line, would the scene of the cop laying out the Joker's knives at the police station count?

[up][up] Yeah, too dark.

[up] There's a trope for that one.

How about this guy?

[up][up] No offense, but that just looked like a bunch of cylinders cluttered together. Why would you think a character with bunch of crap attached together would be a good exa-oh wait.

The idea is those are missile tubes. I'll admit I had the same concern about the other Gundam examples, which look great if you know what you are looking at. Otherwise there is the suggestion that the Mobile Suit is well off for soft drink. grin

The Link one is quite good.

I like Hot Fuzz for the clarity.

(I GIS for "very well armed". I get this. He is well armed.)

I used "armed to the teeth" as that's the phrase I've heard associated with this.

The Link image looks familiar. Is it or was it on another wiki page?

[up][up]It's on Link's page on The Other Wiki, as well as a lot of other places. Not sure about TV Tropes.

That one is quite good. I see sword, axe, bow, shoulder-mounted lance thing, dagger on each leg, spiky armguard.

And it manages to invoke the "just so badass" aspect as well, since there are several of them that realistically would interfere with each other if he tries to use them; that shoulder spike will cause all sorts of problems in effectively using the axe or the sword or the bow; the spiky armguard will also cause problems with the bow; carrying the bow that way puts it in the way for using the sword or the axe... He's got to be supernaturally good to not get killed while he's trying to untangle his weapons from each other.

The spiky armguard would cause embarrassment in an elevator.

Looks like we've got several good options but no consensus. Time for a crowner.

I'd prefer something with a variety of weapons as opposed to "Lots and lots of guns".

Sad to see the Yu Gi Oh example voted down, I like that one. Are those pipe bombs?

Strike Freedom Girl: my goodness, there's been an explosion in the the trope factory!

The GP 03-1 pic made me chortle. We're gonna have a nice image gallery.

I'd like to propose the following as a replacement version of Firion #3: it doesn't crop off his foot nor the end of his spiky armguard.
