Description
Here's a twofer from Starship Troopers 3: Marauder. Apparently the director thinks if he ripoff two sources that would be clever, or he assumes that movie goes don't play video games and tabletop games.The rifles their using are based of the MA5 assault rifles
The Marauder is mash up of the Elemental battle armor and the Guillotine battlemech.

Rifle is actually a mashup of the Morita Mk II seen in the first movie and the cancelled OICW. I can't see more than a remote resemblance between the two. As for the Marauder, it use pretty standard things you'd see on a mech. Shoulder-mounted weapons, arms with weapons internally housed, bipedal, etc. They also used a similar weapon in the book, in fact the Mobile Infantry were called that because of their suits. To put it lightly it's a serious stretch of the imagination that anything is being ripped off here. Hell, the Morita from Marauder and the MA5 barely have anything in common.
