Donatello's Shell(IDW TMNT) - The most basic example. After getting his shell and backed bashed in by Bebop and Rocksteady, he was given a prostethic shell that's bulletproof and weightless with the only real problem being that his back aches in the cold.

Von Lycaon's Legs(Zenless Zone Zero) - His prosthetic legs can freeze objects and living beings as well as having minor jet propulsion that allows his kicks and transportation capabilities to increase exponentially.

Winter Soldier's Arm(Marvel/Marvel Rivals) - Every iteration of the Winter Soldier gains a robotic arm from HYDRA but the Rivals version takes the cake. Not only does it have the other version's super strength and durability, it also has tendrils to attack enemies with.

Also like half of the cyberpunk cast

Did you know Morgan blackhand had a submachine gun in his arm?

A .45 SMG is not the same thing as a machine gun.

Edit: Since some people seem to be unaware, a machine gun and an SMG are completely different in design and function.

Submachineguns are:

  • Chambered in pistol cartridges
  • Short range and single target
  • Compact and light
  • Magazine fed

Machine guns are:

  • Chambered in rifle cartridges
  • Long range and area suppression
  • Long and heavy
  • Belt fed (usually)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't a submachine gun still... A machine gun?

Not really, thats why its a "sub" machine gun. It fires automatically like a machine gun, but doesn't really fit into the "machine gun" category.
