Exo-Frames are robotic suits or armor various characters have made use of in the Gargoyles Universe.
Construction Frame
This exo-frame was used by employees of Xanatos Construction to load pieces of Castle Wyvern for transport as it was being disassembled. ("Awakening Part Two")
The design for the exo-frame may have been influenced by a similar exo-frame used by Ellen Ripley to kill the Alien Queen in the 1986 James Cameron film Aliens.
David Xanatos
David Xanatos owns a battle exo-frame modelled after his Steel Clan robots, themselves built to resemble Goliath. Unlike the Steel Clan, the Gargoyle Battle Armor is colored red, and the Manhattan Clan initially believed that it was a prototype advanced version of a new Steel Clan robot.
Originally built by the Scarab Corporation, Xanatos debuted his battle armor when he stole the Eye of Odin from the Museum of Modern Art as part of a scheme to locate the Manhattan Clan's new home. Xanatos led the Steel Clan and fought the Manhattan Clan at the Statue of Liberty. Although he was thwarted, he did manage to fight Goliath to a stand still. ("The Edge")
Since then, Xanatos has made use of the armor on various occasions such as helping to break Demona's stone-by-night spell and trying to capture Coyote the Trickster. ("City of Stone", "Cloud Fathers") He has also had an Iron Clan variant of the armor.
Xanatos' armor is equipped with rockets on the back and feet which allow him to fly at extremely high speeds, and he maneuvers with razor-sharp wings. There is a particle beam cannon located on the right arm and on one occasion he fired a device from his right shoulder designed to overload and destroy a Steel Clan robot.
Xanatos is able to operate the suit through a combination of an options scroll on his internal visor and internal sensors. He trained a long time to use the suit proficiently, and it's tailored to him specifically.[1]
Xanatos also owns a more compact suit of armor that he can conceal beneath an overcoat. This suit allows him enhanced strength, limited flight via a jet-pack on his back and armored talons on his hands.
Dingo
After the Pack barely escaped the Manhattan Clan, they were approached by Coyote 2.0 on Xanatos' behalf and offered upgrades. Not wanting to lose his humanity, Dingo chose a robotic suit of armor, constructed by the Scarab Corporation. ("Upgrade")
Dingo's armor is capable of flight and features concussion blasts from the hands; a particle beam that rises from the right forearm; and a built-in modem. It also increases his strength and durability. The armor can also be operated by Dingo via a remote control.
Eventually, Matrix merged with Dingo's armor, consuming it, and has since become Dingo's new exo-frame, bonding with Dingo's central nervous system when the two are merged. ("Walkabout", "Strangers")
Demona
While conducting thefts of high technology in order to lure out the Manhattan Clan, Demona stole an exo-frame from the Golden Cup building. Goliath, Angela, and Brooklyn were able to bring her down, destroying the suit in the process. ("The Reckoning")
The armor possessed rockets on its back allowing it to fly, a cannon capable of firing a particle beam on its left arm, and a claw on its right. Another defense mechanism included the suit being able to generate electricity along its skin, giving anyone who came in physical contact with it a nasty shock.
Hunters
Both Jon Canmore and Robyn Canmore donned exo-frames when they attacked Demona at St. Damien's Cathedral. ("Hunter's Moon Part Three")
Their armor allowed them both enhanced strength and durability, as well as flight. Jon was protected in his armor from a direct attack from Hudson's sword.
Jon's armor featured a large particle beam cannon on the right hand. Robyn's did not sport this feature.
