== [[Literature]] ==
* In ''[[Redwall|Rakkety Tam]]'', one of the squirrels and a vole raid the vermin's encampment, coming back with more weapons than they can wield correctly, making about how to defeat the enemy just by falling over.
* ''[[Discworld]]'':
** In ''[[Discworld/Pyramids|Pyramids]]'', Teppic's [[Lock and Load Montage]] ends with him falling over from the weight.
** In another ''[[Discworld]]'' book, Nobby raids an armory, trying to come out with, among others, [[Impossibly Cool Weapon|a flamethrower on wheels]]. But Carrot makes him put it back.
* As described in some of the ''[[Dragaera]]'' novels, Vlad Taltos prepares for trouble by keeping a number of weapons on his person including several knives and a garrote.
Line 63 ⟶ 62:
* [[Badass Normal|Chase]] in ''[[The Sword of Truth]]'' has been described to carry enough weapons for a small army. When asked if he'll really need all of them, he answers "if I'll leave any behind - yes".
 
== [[Live -Action TV]] ==
* A few incarnations of the [http://powerrangers.wikia.com/wiki/Battlizer Battlizer] (a [[Mid-Season Upgrade]] [[Super Mode]] exclusively for the Red Ranger) from ''[[Power Rangers]]'' could qualify.<ref>It should be noted that the Battlizer is [[Merchandise-Driven|an American concept]], and thus did not originally exist in ''[[Super Sentai]]''. The only exception is [[Power Rangers SPD|Jack Landor's]] Battlizer being adapted into ''[[Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger]]'' for Banban "Ban" Akaza/DekaRed (Jack's Japanese equivalent), but the only common element was appearance.</ref>
