Line 503:
* Almost subverted, but not quite, in the CGI-animated ''Action Man'', when Coach gives Alex Mann a device called the BSU 10000. Alex thinks that this stands for something more sophisticated than the bazooka-like gun that it looks like at first glance, but Coach fires the gun at a pile of scrap metal (blowing it sky-high) and reveals that it ''really'' stands for "Blow Stuff Up". (Possibly a G-rated version of "Blow Shit Up", considering the show's audience.)
* ''C.O.P.S.'' featured Mace, who carried a laser bazooka, and uses it in the opening to slice a hole in a reinforced concrete walkway. Also featured Buttons McBoomBoom who, along with having THE GREATEST NAME IN ALL OF FICTION, kept a pair of BFGs ''in his chest.''
* Dot's gun in ''[[Re BootReBoot]]'''s season 2 finale "Web World Wars." It's bigger than she is.
{{quote|'''Dot''': What do you think? Does it make me look too butch'?
'''Mouse''': Hmm, nah.... listen, while I'm working on the codes with Megabyte, well, you'll watch my back won't'cha?
'''Dot''': What do you think this is for? <Cocks gun> }}
* The unofficial ''[[Re BootReBoot]]'' Episode Zero (a compilation of every cutscene from the [[PlayStation]] videogame) plays this a bit more straight. After Hexadecimal reveals that {{spoiler|Dot is trapped inside one of her mirrors}}, Bob [[Berserk Button|goes berserk]]. He brutally kicks Megabyte's [[Unusual Euphemism|ascii]], then stares right at the mirror-slash-vidwindow above the Tor looking into Hex's lair. His next line, with progressive camera zoon-in on each letter: "Glitch: '''''B.F.G.!'''''". His already big gun turns into the poster child of [[More Dakka]], then he points it straight up at the mirror, says his [[Catch Phrase]] ("[[Stay Frosty]]."), and blasts the crap out of it. (Watch the epic scene [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_7NgIobE2I here], starting at 3:14.)
* [[Royals Who Actually Do Something|The King]] in ''[[Sym-Bionic Titan]]'', while fighting with the army on the front lines and already shooting a BFG, runs out of bullets and pulls out an even ''[[Turned Up to Eleven|bigger]]'' one.
* On ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'', Pinkie Pie shows off her Party Cannon, which can blast decorations all over a room in one shot to instantly set up a party. [[Crazy Prepared|She even hauls it all the way from Ponyville to Canterlot.]]
* In ''[[Thundercats 2011|ThunderCats (2011)]]''
** [[The Dragon]] Grune has a huge ''[[Carry a Big Stick|kanabo]]'' [[Morph Weapon]] that transforms into an equally huge [[Lightning Gun]].
Line 515:
** [[Played for Laughs]] in "Between Brothers" when young Wilykat [[Invoked Trope|invokes]] it by appropriating an enemy's BFG. He staggers under its weight, attempting to aim it at a [[Walking Tank]] while enemy troops sneak up behind him. Its recoil is so tremendous he sails backward into them, knocking them out, while his errant shot manages to hit the tank's feet.
* ''[[Generator Rex]]'': one of Rex's forms produces a ridiculously large gun, known as the Slam Cannon. It's about three times as large as its teenage wielder, and on one occasion used ''bowling balls'' for bullets - and they were small compared to its usual mass-of-rubble rounds.
