Just ask the OP they're apparently the artist

The sword in C8 (the man on top of the Omnidroid) is a Soulcalibur II Soul Edge. Not sure who's wielding it though.

1:22 AM

Hi, I am quite confident the Gundam in A4 is the RX-78-2 Gundam (like, 99% confident) as no other series or Gundam type matches that design. The only caveat is that I don't recall ever seeing the RX-78-2 Gundam with a round "Spartan 300" shield depicted in the image. This could be artistic license, of course.

Source for comparison - gundam.wikia.com/wiki/RX-78-2_Gundam

I've edited the post to include the model number but left it bold because of that doubt

5 hours later…

6:10 AM

I'm on mobile so editing is a pain, but can someone edit "cowboy with spiky red hair" out of G3?

It's been ided as Lucky Luke

user image

The red things might be something else, but the cowboy is Luke

6:37 AM

@Jenayah I would do it but I don't want to override the pending edit (which I know nothing about).

7:00 AM

@Jenayah Done.

7:25 AM

I6 Person "sleeping" in black and green spacesuit ** in the Sarcophagus of the Mummy from the 90s The Mummy (there is the Hamunaptra Key) <--- Maybe the Doomguy?

I agree that I6 is the Doom Slayer. I just added in a whole bunch I recognised & lost the edit :(

If anyone fancies editing in the list, since I don't fancy waiting for the edit queue:
C3 - Zodd, Bezerk
C7 - Reaper from Overwatch
C5/D5 - The Dahaka, Prince of Persia: Warrior Within
D8 - Jerry, Tom & Jerry
E4 - Beheaded Kamikaze, Serious Sam
F4 - Rune shrine, Dishonoured
F8 - Saitama, One Punch Man
F9 - Instead of Big Brother, it's Big Daddy from Bioshock
F9/F10 - The Master, Fallout 1
G5/G6 - Scorpius, Farscape
G6 - "White haired" -> "The Kid", Bastion
- "Girl standing sideways" -> Kat, Gravity Rush

7:50 AM

B6 The Machine left is the Memory Trip device from Total Recall

Was able to identify the "Potato heads" - they are Sids eggs from Ice Age 3. See youtu.be/yAicsXYkcck

Ah, I knew I've seen them before :D

F2 bottom right looks like SCP-682

E9 top, looks like a pod from the Matrix

C8 The guy holding the Sword is Ronal the barbarian

8:09 AM

You can even name them - D5 is Yolko, G9 is Egbert Now where was Shelley?

F2 is likely.

Sorry, can't find him

F2 Guy sitting is Fantomas?

Can't tell - but SCP-682 is a good find.

8:27 AM

D8, Table with white powder and gun, remembers me of Scarface. Say hello to my little friend ;)

user image

Also the monitors in background

And carpet :O

8:49 AM

Only one thing the table has a small box with a tiny elephant.

Looks like the elephant from Fifth Element.

user image

Nice :D

9:27 AM

I keep thinking the three "stoned" girls in D8 should be easy...

The setup reminds me of this Caterpillar from Alice in Wonderland. The red "bed" and the hookah (right word? I dunno :D )

D8: The whole desk is from Zorg...

@Jenayah yeah, but that post not mine. :)

1 hour later…

10:46 AM

@EgorKlyuchnyk I know I know :)

@EgorKlyuchnyk btw is it okay with you if we snip each of these cells and include in the post like it was done with Universe 113?

1 hour later…

12:09 PM

@Gewürzwiesel good catch!!

@bdecaf that, too!

@Gewürzwiesel maybe Blofeld?

user image

Maybe, but I think Fantomas suits better, because of ears and head color

user image

oh lol

we weren't talking about the same one

but yeah you got the bottom guy right

Ah, you mean the one on the right?

yeah but checking on the list it's Dr Evil

who technically is a rewriting of Blofeld so I wasn't far :p

Yeah, I didn't think about this guy, because he was already solved ;)

12:19 PM

Who are the white-haired creepy-looking twins?

oh hey

No idea, never seen them

Village of the damned?

Okay... you are right... I have seen them xD

The Carpenter one

@Jenayah yeah, sure. :)

12:20 PM

yeah it's them

@EgorKlyuchnyk alright! :)

neat that image has 3 Carpenter references so far

and a Spaceman Spiff

that is neat

12:35 PM

D5, the spikey tentacles head guy. I reckon he could be a mix of two characters.

I don't exactly know which one, but suit would be one char and tentacles another?

Tentacles look like the Seer Grimm from RWBY but it's not that. I remember a pal telling me the Seer reminded him of another character though (video game probably)

user image

any ideas?

@Jenayah nope:) But you are right about mix of two characters

@EgorKlyuchnyk well I'd have been very surprised to see a RWBY character in there :D especially the Seer, it's not that known

A3, the "bat-like" weapon looks like a telescope to me... from some retro game

@Gewürzwiesel what's batty about it?

oh wait

wrong kind of Bat

I read too much comics ahahah

1:05 PM

Doctor Evil isn't holding Mr Biggelsworth. He's actually holding Nibbler from Furturama (notice the eye stock).

G4: Man with the Hockey Mask. I'm 90% sure that's Casey Jones from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles.

I8 - the character in the jumpsuit is Ripley from Aliens

@Alith we managed to go through almost 24hours without spotting that one

And we call ourselves SFF :(

Call it a flash of inspiration ;)

and we've done great so far!!

Indeed, we're just that awesome :^)

D3: The purple thing with teeth on the ship from Cowboy Bebop, I think that's a zerg infestation from Starcraft.

1:16 PM

@onewho mmmh... not sure.

I think I remember it from somewhere, but I'm not familiar with StarCraft franchise so I wouldn't have seen it there...

might be wrong of course

@onewho you sure? the mask looks like it's strapped whil Casey Jones' is pivoting innit?

hey @WebHead

@onewho would've rather said Jason Voorhes mask because it's white, strapped and has red spots

the red spots don't exactly match the pattern of Jason's though

user image

'dunno, I'd say the middle matches but no red spot and no three holes around the mouth

user132126

vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/tmnt/images/e/e7/…

hmm... maybe it's Jason Voorhes... another thought is it could be from some anime, though I don't know which.

user132126

user image

1:24 PM

I'm 99% sure G3 isn't Smaug. Smaug has wings.

user132126

Voorhes's mask is in the slime cube

user132126

With the proton pack

@WebHead shoulder pad matches, no thongs crossing around the image's chest though

maybe a mix of twoi chars then?

@Jenayah Not Smaug... looks familiar though... The thing in the bubble is Princess What's her name from Earthworm Jim

@JohnP are you copy-pasting stuff into the edit box?

formatting broke :/

user132126

1:27 PM

It's Casey Jones. You're being too nitpicky. He's a character that's had dozens of incarnations.

user132126

user image

user132126

D3/D4, ghost from The Frighteners.

@WebHead okay okay :)

user132126

"The Judge" is the ghosts name

Also, ontop of Princess What's-her-name. The crown looks like Lord Gwyn's crown from Dark Souls.

1:28 PM

just gotta spot what John added before rollabcking

@onewho kinda yeah, but why gold?

user132126

lol, poster from the X-Files intro...

@Jenayah It was gold before he threw himself into the first flame to rekindle it.

@onewho okep

user132126

the creature next to Sonic the Hedgehog is the dog thing from John Carter of Mars movie.

user132126

Woola

1:35 PM

yeah

lol

this thing is almost equally split into four cases

where should it be ?

user132126

To standardize it, I'd go with whichever square is lowest number and lowest letter, with priority going to lower number if it's something that crosses diagonally top right to bottom left, like the BTTF flames

So G7

user132126

user image

user132126

h7: Spirit from Final Fantasy The Spirits Within movie

1:51 PM

I9: I don't think that's Gallifrey, I think that's Coruscant

@WebHead Phantom Spirit?

according to finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/Spirit_(The_Spirits_Within) but I'm not familiar with this

@Jenayah Yes

okep!

editing in

Looks like you are right.

https://deadlystream.com/uploads/monthly_2018_05/large.gallery_12766_2_60912.jpg.04e4fea16c7ed63db7bda417fcc6e41a.jpg

Oh, crap

Imgur is still borked, right?

with the m tweak

user132126

2:02 PM

Yeah

dangit

F7: Hefer from Rockos modern life seems to have Hellboys right hand

No, but I may have broken the formatting. I often kludge that kind of stuff up.

user132126

Just spotted the Infinity Gauntlet

2:17 PM

@WebHead waaaaay ahead of you mate :)

@JohnP I don't get why it would behave that way though (it's fixed anyway)

user132126

Finally found The Tet, too. I was wondering if it'd be in there.

aye someone ided it already I think

H6 has two more hidden characters. The protectrons shadow clearly is a separate character and the pink spill has a "head" pointing up. Just cant think who they could be.

D5 goo monster looks so cool

Identified the two pommel sword in the exorcist scene. Frostmourne, warcraft III

2:22 PM

@bdecaf wasn't the pink stuff ided as being from Splatoon?

@JohnP and managed not to broke the formatting at the same time ahah

@Jenayah I didn't have to add anything, just replace what was there.

kidding

user132126

@Jenayah I believe it is. You can see a squid head poking up from it.

@bdecaf I thought that was the tip of Patrick star's head

@bdecaf was about to say "yeah someone mentioned that about the shadow already"... then realized that someone was me ahah

15 hours ago, by Jenayah

-----------------
H6's shadow isn't the robot's one is it?

2:24 PM

Peter Pan's Shadow?

ah ;) yeah it gets confusing.

F9/F10: Harry Lyme from the Wet Bandits (Home Alone)

@onewho holy-- that might be it!

user image

user132126

I mentioned Pan's shadow yesterday.

2:26 PM

F9 - Whistlers Mother Mr Bean

I keep thinking the yellow planet in J9/10 may be dune. It has a characteristic mountain range near the north pole.

oh wait, already id'd

@WebHead lol, as said above, it gets confusing

@bdecaf Arrakis? If so someone added it in like 2 minutes ago

I6: I think that's the tapestry from when Zap Brannigan invaded the spider planet, "The Spiderians, though weak and woman-like on the battlefield, are masters of the textile arts. Taste like king crab, by the way. Crazy bugs actually wove this tapestry of my heroic conquest while I was still killing them."

@EgorKlyuchnyk - Can you confirm if the Sol coordinates are from Elite:Dangerous? Or are we not pestering you for confirmations?

2:36 PM

@JohnP eh as far as I'm concerned it's funnier if we do it ourselves :p

@JohnP see related transcript starting at chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/message/46930860#46930860

2:52 PM

FYI - updated the post so the shooting girl in E4 is noted as not Lara Croft, since she in I7.

@RDFozz You sure? I saw the other one too, I think the one in E4 is the more modern Lara Croft.

@onewho - Not entirely certain, but there are differences. It looks to me like she has tats - does the new Croft?

user132126

Just an FYI, this has destroyed my stack inbox. Every edit notifies me.

@RDFozz No, but in almost every image I've seen of her, her arms are all scratched up

user image

user image

@onewho - Is the newer version a reboot, or an actual distinct character? I don't think multiple variants of the same character have been identified (like I could actually keep up, though!)

3:03 PM

@RDFozz I think it was intended to be a reboot. I'm not sure though.

@WebHead I think there aren't notifications for minor edits.

user132126

I've had like 300 at this point.

user132126

Closer to 260 apparently.

3:16 PM

hmmm - H3, the spacesuit figure is holding the Warglaives of Azzinoth I think from Warcraft

https://www.google.co.uk/url?sa=i&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=images&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwju1PL2_t3dAhVQzaQKHQ9FAAsQjRx6BAgBEAU&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.ca%2FRubies-Costume-Warcraft-Warglaive-Azzinoth%2Fdp%2FB004YARDT8&psig=AOvVaw3D4_M5R3Eh5gL9RKYC-fnx&ust=1538234147960956

user132126

Agreed. I meant to mention that earlier.

user132126

Illidan's weapon for sure.

looks like it.

@JohnP I'll be glad to answer to any questions :) This is Solar days from start to finish drawing this poster.

Oh...I like my answer better. :p

3:29 PM

:D

H7, anyone think the triangle looks like the interdimensional portal from gravity falls?

gravityfalls.wikia.com/wiki/Interdimensional_Portal

4:09 PM

@JohnP - definitely a similarity - not just the shape, but the symbols around the circle might match up.

Hey guys. I made references not 100% similar to original, so keep it mind

I keep thinking I've seen that deck port with 23 on it somewhere.

4:26 PM

@Egor - Understood. If about my exchange w/ JohnP, I should note for both of you that I haven't seen Gravity Falls, and could only base my statement off comparison with what's seen on the link he provided.

@WebHead ahahahah

@JohnP oh so it's an actual deck? I genuinely thought it referenced the eponymous movie

@RDFozz you should :) pretty funny show

5:01 PM

@Jenayah That's a deck port of some kind. I remember in one of the segal boat movies they were peering out of it at da enemeez

but you could be right, could be the movie number 23

5:17 PM

Grid G4 - Identified right door knocker from labyrinth, added female gunner to unknown list.

F4, behind the wooden thing circled by candles - Stardust ship?

it's like a very small drawing on the wall

could be any dirigible though

user image

5:37 PM

There are quite a few missing things from the list that are on the photo. Like the E on the wreckage at the top, etc.

How did everyone miss ark of the covenant, F4?

oh wait, f3 not 4

5:59 PM

@JohnP it's already in the list

or has it been overriden in edit conflict?

1 hour later…

7:06 PM

I1 could be a destroyed Mad Cat (BattleTech)

8:03 PM

@UniQP looks like it, yeah.

8:17 PM

I wonder what the big freaky thing in F5 is

green machine of sorts

1 hour later…

9:27 PM

The Giant yellow, square shaped robot from H5 is Doctor Kōsaku Tokita in Giant Robot form from Paprika

in H6 the shadow on the protectron is Peter Pan's Shadow

I5 - Conan?

look at that sword...

r/nocontext

Seriously though, the part above the pommel looks like Conan's sword

yeah, that's conan

user image

Could the white stuff in J6 be something or is it just decorative?

its either windows of the spaceship or some sort of slug

hhmmmmm... White space slug

doesn't ring a bell

looks really bulgy for a window

9:39 PM

maybe it should help to identify the spaceship

what the whole spaceship?

yes

the other spaceship is the yamato (see A6)

I thought about it but found nothing

rght

Training straw dummy, topright D6?

or wooden dummy

B6, Frankenstein's monster?

sitting on the Total Recall machine

E7, dissolving gorilla - the one from Hollow Man?

Hollow Man (2000) - Gorilla Visible Scene (1/10) | Movieclips

Mildly NSFW, if your boss isn't into gorilla vein network and organ anatomy

Armor makes me think of Gorilla Grodd, but AFAIK he can't turn invisible

10:07 PM

Damn, I finally found what G3 reminded me of. It was _Pete's Dragon_ but both reptilians don't really match...

user image

G4: "GOD" written on panel above stepladder?

Also, radiocative black barrel.

Heck, maybe the stepladder's important, even.

Also, that crashed moon thingy.

Maybe the mechanical arm hoolding Iron Man's suit too.

10:25 PM

hey friends. I'm sorry that I posted this ugly watermarked image

here I made is better one

imgur.com/gallery/58M7TUs

Nice!

I hope it will help

Poke @WebHead care to redo a grid? :)

I can make a grid :)

Oh cool :)

10:36 PM

imgur.com/a/Wg3BM19 done

@EgorKlyuchnyk aw, you rock
