Basically, what fictional weapons do you want to exist (but not necessarily own/use) IRL?

Please don't include mecha/vehicles/spacecraft/ships unless it's a weapon belonging to a specific mech/vehicle/spacecraft/ship.

A Lazy Gun. Anyone can kill people efficiently, I want style.

There is no such thing as a hobby without politics. "Leave politics at the door" is itself a political statement, an endorsement of the status quo and an attempt to silence dissenting voices.

I want a black hole grenade. Not particularly useful or effective, but great for the suicidally determined.

And dreadnaughts.

I'd have to say lightsaber, simply for coolness, but a Phaser would also be neat, as it can be set to stun or kill, making taking captives and minimising collateral casualties more effective.

on the forum. Obviously

Oh I dunno....

- The Carpathian Dragons from BloodRayne 2. I mean, they shoot weaponized blood at your enemies! That's pretty metal.

- Caster Gun because magic bullets are magical

- Vash the Stampede's revolver because it is a pretty neat looking gun.

- The Death Note (It counts!)

- Clementine (the guitar from Brutal Legend). Hey you know how I said the Carpathian Dragons were metal? Well, this is even more metal. You can even do Noise Marine impressions with it.


Also, a cannon that fires a nuke that explodes into 1000 chainsaws that also explode into nukes. You might ask yourself, where's that from? It's from this thread, in this post here. By writing this I created a parallel universe where a show that involves giant shark mechs duking it out with chainsaw nuke launchers exists. The opening theme is by Manowar. You can't say I didn't.

Why? because 99% of fictional weapons will create uber-death and destruction in their wake, you will get noticed by the authorities, they will retaliate and arrest/kill you in return.

However, I'm less likely to bring repercussions on myself if all I do is go around harassing those that annoy me by firing live squid at them...

A light grenade from Mom and Dad Save the World. I figure it would still be pretty effective given the current level of stupid.

It even has Pick Me Up written on the side!

Keep you lightsaber. I'll disintegrate the whole city block you're standing on.

The shrink ray gun from Duke Nukem 3D. I'll pass on the portal gun - fun as it looks, as I reckon I'd come to a sticky end rather quickly with that thing.
