Line 17:
* In ''[[GaoGaiGar|Gao Gai Gar]] FINAL'', Evoludar Guy gets them glowing through his skin sometimes due to his body being composed of G-Stone based [[Nanomachines]] or something like that.
* In ''[[Mobile Suit Gundam 00]]'', whenever the 4 main Gundams go into the [[Super Mode|super powered Trans-Am mode]], they gain Tron Lines and a healthy red glow.
* In ''[[Infinite Ryvius]]'', the Ryvius lights up with Tron Lines when first activated.
* ''[[Kiddy Grade]]'': Lumiere emits these when she invokes her [[Technopath|machine-controlling powers]].
* Appears on ''[[Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha (anime)|Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha]]'''s [[Magic Wand|Boost Devices]], such as those used by Caro and Lutecia, when they're in use.
Line 38:
== Card Games ==
* In ''[[The Spoils]]'' [[Collectible Card Game]], the Gearsmith artifacts such as the Runic Cannon or the Runic Whale often have curly glowing runes of power running around their surface.
* from the ''Yu-Gi-Oh!'' OCG, any paraphernalia coming from the 5D's era (Deckboxes, Binders, Sleeves, Deckmats, etc.) would have Tron Lines all over it, designed so that it looks like a microchip.
Line 45:
* ''[[Iron Man]]'' has had at least one armor with this feature.
* Grant Morrison's redesign of DC's ''[[New Gods]]'' feature this, particularly Darkseid, Metron, and Mister Miracle.
* In honor of ''[[Tron: Legacy]]'', Marvel made a [http://io9.com/5667163/what-if-iron-man-captain-america-and-thor-starred-in-tron series of illustrations] for heroes such as [[Iron Man]], Wolverine, Spider-Woman, and a Lightcycle-riding [[Ghost Rider]] done ''TRON''-style.
* The latest big Marvel storyline has some ancient evil Norse god creating a bunch of knockoffs of Mjolnir and giving them to carious characters such as Hulk and Juggernaut, [http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/7251/ff1legioncps037038.jpg with varying levels of Tron Lines accompanying them].
* The current ''[[Buck Rogers]]'' comic book has the heroes wearing uniforms with Tron Lines.
Line 86:
== Tabletop Games ==
* ''[[BattleTech]]'' has the Enhanced Imaging system, a cybernetic interface between the pilot and his Mech. One side effect of the system is that the user's body is covered in what looks like full-body tattoos, but are in fact cybernetic circutry. In the cartoon, they glowed when activated, and EI visuals outlined mechs [[Color Coded for Your Convenience|color-coded]] by IFF.
* The Necrons in ''[[Warhammer 40000]]'' revel in this trope, as nearly all of their buildings possess these. Depending on the painter, they themselves might be glowing as well.
Line 131:
* ''[[Mass Effect]]'' tech has this as well.
** Specifically: VI holograms have brighter lines going through them. Additionally, the Geth Armory Medium and Heavy suits for the Krogan Wrex has glowing cables and lines.
** In ''[[Mass Effect 2]]'', some of the suits or armor have these. A few glowing lines are present on the back of all of Shepard's N7 armor, and glowing lines are especially noticeable on some of the krogan armors, particularly Gatatong Uvenk's suit. The downloadable Kestrel Armor features a number of these lines as well, on each of the armor components. A couple of the alternate appearance packs also feature armor with glowing lines, most notably Garrus and Grunt's. Jack even gets a leather jacket that has a couple of bright red lines down the back.
** Also from ''Mass Effect 2'' is Shepard's glowing orange scars. A case of [[Evil Is Sexy]] (YMMV), [[Evil Is Cool]], and [[Made of Evil]] all wrapped into one if you pursue the renegade path.
* Beowulf from ''[[Devil May Cry]]'' has these, but [[Light Is Not Good]].
Line 137:
* The tutorial and final levels of ''[[System Shock]] 2''.
* Digital Circuit and Mad Matrix in ''[[Shadow the Hedgehog (video game)|Shadow the Hedgehog]]'', both cyberspace levels which aesthetics are pretty much [[Shout-Out|ripped off from]] ''[[Tron]]''.
* In ''[[
* The main character in ''[[Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne]]'' gets as version that looks like ordinary full-body tattoos, but then they start glowing in the dark! Apparently becoming mostly-demon does that to ya.
* ''[[Metal Gear Solid]]''
Line 160:
** Umbreon has Tron ''Rings''. And (in the anime at least) they glow in the dark.
** The Embedded Tower in ''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver|Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver]]''.
** Opelucid City in ''[[Pokémon Black and White|Pokémon Black]]''.
* The "Aegis" ship equipment set in ''[[Star Trek Online]]'' has optional Tron Lines for the player's starship. It's even [[Color Coded for Your Convenience]]: the glow on Starfleet ships is blue, and that on Klingon ships is red.
* All of ''[[Homeworld]] 2'''s [[Precursors|Progenitor]] space warships that are frigate-sized and larger emit Tron Lines along the side of their hulls either when powering a [[Wave Motion Gun|Phased Cannon Array]], or in one particular case, when [[Mercy Invincibility|temporarily resisting enemy fire]].
Line 174:
** Zol nothing, the Mountain Roc's ''guts'' have Tron Lines on them.
* In ''[[Assassin's Creed]]'', all the tech left behind by [[Precursors|Those Who Came Before]] features this, particularly the {{spoiler|Temple of Juno underneath the Colloseum in Rome}}.
** {{spoiler|Desmond himself gains them in a blink-and-you'll-miss-it scene at the end of ''[[Assassin's Creed Revelations]]''.}}
* The [[Save Point|Spirit Stones]] and the titular Ark in ''[[Ys]]: The Ark of Napishtim''.
* It's subtle, but Spider-Man 2099 in ''[[Spider-Man: Shattered Dimensions]]'' and ''[[Spider-Man Edge of Time|Spider-Man: Edge of Time]]'' has glowing blue lines on his costume.
Line 180:
* ''[[Borderlands]]'' has them on some of the [[More Dakka|many]], [[Up to Eleven|many]], weapons the game has, as well as on large rocks lying around, typically related to [[MacGuffin Location|The Vault]].
* ''[[Saints Row: The Third|Saints Row the Third]]'' features a gang made up entirely of cyber punks, whose clothing was all black with neon blue Tron Lines. Also, {{spoiler|their story-arch culminates with a mission where the player character is transported inside their user mainframe to stop their hacking/money laundering schemes, and render the gang powerless. This entire mission's design was a clear reference to Tron, and finishing it unlocks two vehicles with Tron Lines as a major design point, as well as the Cyber Blaster used throughout the mission}}.
* Nezha from [[Warriors Orochi]] has these.
Line 227:
* [[Truth in Television]]: Try looking at your feet next time you ride an escalator. They are actually there to warn you not to put your feet there as you may fall, but still pretty cool.
* The [[wikipedia:Corpus Clock|Corpus Clock,]] which ironically uses no computers whatsoever. (Everything is controlled by [[Steampunk|bleeding edge clockwork]], including the [[Nightmare Fuel|evil blinking grasshopper]] on top.)
* The Wii console: the disc slot has a steady blue glow around the edge when powered on, and will pulse when a system upgrade is availible or a new message is in your inbox. Possible connection of [[Everything Is an iPod In The Future]].
* This trope is practically the reason EL-wire exists.
* [http://www.physorg.com/news/2010-10-flexible-implanting-skin.html Waterproof LEDs that can be implanted underneath your skin].
* [http://www.razerzone.com/ Razer products], particularly the company's logo, a glowing blue or green triquetra made of SNAKES placed on EVERYTHING.
