Weapon types you'd like to see in game

[Waffilicious]

Use a lalafell as a weapon like bowser with mario on mario rpg.
A sitar
skates
magical flying orbs/cards/chakrams
transform into beasts (souls as weapons)

[Altijacek]

I'm pretty sure they're gonna go with the ones from other ff games before getting into unique stuff. But I'm 100% sure they will introduce one or two new weapons to the series, since every final fantasy has to bring something new to the table.

I'm betting whips for Beastmaster.
Gunblade for soldier/seeD/whatever you wanna call it.
Hand-bombs for engineer/fusilier/cannoneer whatever.
Dark Knight is already getting great swords.
Machinist or whatever the new job is gets guns.
Astrological gets tarot cards.
Katana for samura.
Berserker can get what OP suggested.
Mediator can get megaphone (Cait Sith reference)
Measures from FF12 to calculator/mathematician/whatever.
Dual Shields to defender or Templar or whatever.
Rapier for red Mage/blue Mage.
Magical Orbs for Time Mage
And for brand new weapons I would like to see the introduction of Tonfa to the FF series

Flail weapon would be a good addition as it'd finally add another blunt damage job and could be a tanking type.

I want ot see Scythes, Tessen, Chakram and katanas. Personally, I don't want hammers, I don't like them.

Lala-catapulting Slingshot Bazooka!

Ranged: Elemental-based Chain Whip.
Melee: Nunchuks, Scythe

A Flexible Weapon would be awesome, several to choose from:

[TacoBell]

Warrior Glam Death Scythe LETS GO

[Pompoen]

Joke glam weapons:
A mop for DRG, fish for NIN, toy sword for PLD (or a pot lid and a ladle), toy hammer for WAR, beach umbrella for DRK, toy gun that just says 'bang' with a little flag for MCH, a small broom for either BLM or WHM, cutlery floating around a dish for AST, bent piece of cardboard with scribbles on it for SCH/SMN and maybe a bent fishing rod with a fish dangling at the end for BRD? (stolen from the nearest unsuspecting FSH)

[Khalithar]

Not so much a weapon so much as a specific fighting style. I'd like to see a class with a one handed sword or axe with no offhand. I don't think the single weapon fighting style gets enough love, dual wielding and various two handed weapons are way too common.
