Break Out the Museum Piece: Difference between revisions

** Of course, Rusty ends up being the sidekick.

* In the ''[[Codename: Kids Next Door]]'' movie, a working item (which cures [[Laser-Guided Amnesia]]) was in the museum, but it was put there to hide it in plain sight, because everyone believed it was broken beyond repair.

* A recurrent theme in ''[[Batman Beyond]]'':

** Terry's batsuit was technically a museum piece in the Batcave, though he said, "This suit may be old, but it's still cutting-edge." He uses other artifacts from Batman's crimefighting days in the series as well. (e.g. Nightwing's domino mask for ID obfuscation when the suit was unavailable, along with some old-style Batarangs.)

** In "Blackout", Bruce took the freeze ray out of his [[Superhero Trophy Shelf|little crime museum]] to stop Inque, and wore the old Gray Ghost hat and mask to keep his identity hidden. In her second appearance, Terry tried the same, but she broke it; later, Bruce took a huge [[Powered Armor]] suit out of retirement to go hand-to-hand with her in a [[Crowning Moment of Awesome]].

* In one episode of ''[[Captain Scarlet|Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet]]'', Captain Black was creating crop circles that render any digital systems (essentially, ''everything'') inoperable. Spectrum took out his base of operations with an old Lancaster Bomber, [[Chekhov's Gun|which had been introduced earlier in the episode]].

* In ''[[Extreme Ghostbusters]],'' the new crew tried the old proton packs against the [[Big Bad]] in the pilot episode and found them to be ineffective, forcing them to come up with a more powerful trap and proton guns. Even so, the old equipment still works, which makes it a suitable back-up.
