Line 21:
** ''[[Gao Gai Gar]] FINAL'' features the Goldion Crusher, a hammer with a handle made out of three giant spaceships, and a head roughly ''twenty times'' the size of the handle, making it ''several orders of magnitude bigger'' than the Goldion Hammer. [[Gao Gai Gar]] actually hangs off the end of its handle. In a show notorious for its revival of over-the-top shouting and [[Calling Your Attacks]], just imagine how the main characters handled it. Especially when they use it to smash {{spoiler|the Sun, for Pete's sake.}}
*** To put that in a normal human's perspective, imagine you, as a person, using the Mir space station as a giant hammer (with the head itself roughly the size of an ''ocean liner''). Yeah, kinda like that.
* The Gigantform of Vita's Graf Eisen in ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'' is {{media-|gigantform_3612.png| larger than she is}}. It grows even larger when she uses it with the Gigant Crusher attack, to the point that {{media-|vita_hammer_4350.png| she's barely visible holding it}}. Its standard Hammerform is probably the best for [[Magic Wand|enhancing spells]]. The Rocketform adds a spike on one end and a ''rocket-jet'' on the other for fast and powerful strikes -- whereas Gigantform is probably intended for larger, slower opponents, the rocket form is probably for faster, human-sized ones. The last form, seen in Season 3, is the Destructionform, which is basically a combination of Gigantform and Rocketform, except with a [[This Is a Drill|drill on the business end]] -- it's probably intended as an anti-structure weapon, for use against completely immobile but fortified targets like [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xnvye8K9e44 engines].
** Graf Eisen's Destructionform is basically the insane lovechild of the aforementioned Goldion Hammer and [[Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann|the Giga Drill]].
** Cranked up ''even more'' in ''Force'', where Vita gains a new weapon called Warhammer. It's huge and looks like it has a fusion reactor in the middle.
