17. I'd have guessed Vampire Killer from the Castlevania series; are there clues to indicate that it is much more likely to be Indiana Jones? Commented Dec 15, 2015 at 18:30

1@SeanMiddleditch We've had some people cross-check my list against the footer of the actual poster, which lists the intended influences; none of them brought up Castlevania, so I'm fairly confident it was intended to be Indy's whip. Still, it's interesting so I added a note Commented Dec 15, 2015 at 18:35

How do you know 38 is Excalibur? It looks like a fairly generic cruciform sword to me. Commented Feb 26, 2016 at 0:14

I like how you named the Tetris blocks, favourite part of all answers. Commented Dec 15, 2015 at 4:48
Seems pretty right. 33.) Chainsaw is definitely evil dead. You can see the severed hand socket on the end but Leatherface MUST BE repped (if Jason and Freddy are. Where's Mikey's butcher knife?). I think 44 could be alot of samurai sword weilding characters (tho Hanzo is most likely) kinda generic. Why Tetris blocks and pokeballs. A yo-yo is more of a weapon. (that was it's original purpose, lol...Google it) I do really like this however.
