There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable.

My third favourite would probably be the DLC blood dragon armour from Mass Effect 2, with the way that the dragon age symbol is incorporated to the gladiator style shoulder armour it just seems really badass.



My second favourite would have to be the black guard armour from Tron Legacy, I really like the whole faceless, but fearsome look it gives off.




And my favourite sci-fi armour ever would have to be the carbonox armour from the third ratchet and clank game, and the way it just screams "do you really want to fight me?"

I have always been a fan of the Hardsuits from Bubblegum Crisis 2040. Namely the Green one.



And i've always thought the Varia suit from the Metroid series was rather cool with its arm cannon and all.



I'm also a big fan of TDA.




Hard to choose a favourite really.

Suit from Vanquish.


Hulkbuster aka the better Terminator armour.


Agreeing with Luna on this.


Started as a mascot costume for a theme park, main character got one and converted it into pretty much power armour.

Inside of it is basically a mech.

Hmmm maybe this then.

Every Dakkanaught gets a 4+ Pinch of Salt save.
When you suffer a Falling Sky hit, roll a D6 - on a 4+ the hit is ignored as per the Pinch of Salt save. On a 1-3 panic insues - you automatically fail common sense tests for the next 2 weeks and get +7 to your negativity stat. -Praxiss

Is it just me, or is the barrel of that gun emplacement a bit skew whiff?

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Rockerbikie..I love the idea behind Khorne Berserkers, but armour suits with bunny ears... ??? really???!!

Have to agree with the suits from Starship Troopers (the book) as well as the suit from Vanquish. It's so un-PC these days, but the way he flicks a cigarette out onto the ground and then the suit folds out over his head is just awesome.
