This is an ally who can serve as a weapon. Not in the sense of an Attack Animal or Mon but in that their ally picks them up and uses them to strike down their foes.
Sometimes more exotic solutions present themselves with characters who are capable of Voluntary Shapeshifting into a weapon (typically a powerful one, otherwise they would just be cutting their forces in half). Weapons which can manifest some sort of avatar or otherwise interact like any other character also count. A related trope is the Empathic Weapon, which seems to have some vague form of intelligence or link with its wielder but not enough to count as a person (although particularly powerful examples might overlap with this trope under special circumstances).
An improvised version of this (i.e. picking up an ally and using them to strike an enemy) could overlap with Grievous Harm with a Body or Fastball Special if a habit is made of it (examples of these go on the relevant pages). If they're used as ammunition see Catapult to Glory. See also Drone Deployer. A subtrope of Living Weapon, and sister trope to Combining Mecha. Not to be confused with Human Weapon.

Disgaea 4 allows as many as four monsters to fuse together before transforming into a weapon and allowing you to dual wield these weapons, thus allowing you to technically have as many as eight allies equipped at the same time.

MapleStory has a recurring character in the Aran questline, Maha, the spirit of Aran's polearm. He gets indignant about being left behind, becomes sentimental when Aran remembers him (complete with Sand In My Eyes) and is responsible for at least one of Aran's job advancements, landing him squarely in type 2 territory.

In the Tactics Ogre and Tactics Ogre: The Knight of Lodis games, there is a spell called Snapshot/Snapdragon that turns your Player Mooks into a weapon named after them; giving a percent of their stats to their wielders. The Video Game Remake had the same results with special Cursed Weapons activated by their wielders. With a strong enough character, it creates an Infinity +1 Sword but the procedure is irreversible.

Digimon: Multiple:
The dragon Ouryumon can evolve into a sword called Ouryuken that only the knight Alphamon can wield.
The Legend-Arms Digimon are an entire subspecies based around this, Digimon who morph into weapons. In the lore, their power is said to be so great they could either save or destroy the world depending on who holds them, and long ago they were all sealed away, but one. One or two have popped up since, including the only one who turns into a shield, who's still around and active.
In Digimon Fusion, "DigiXros" allows a Digimon to temporarily absorb some of their allies to borrow their power, with the result normally resembling a Combining Mecha but sometimes entering this territory.
Shoutmon can DigiXros with Dorulumon to transform the latter into the "Dorulu Cannon", a twin-barrelled artillery weapon which cannot aim or fire itself. These barrels later become the legs of the main trio's true combination, Shoutmon X3. Similarly, MetalGreymon can DigiXros with Cyberdramon to transform it into the stationary "Cyber Launcher" weapon emplacement.
Starmon and the Pickmons can combine into various weapons for others to wield, including the Star Sword, Star Axe and Star Wheel. When they combine with Shoutmon X3 to become Shoutmon X4, the Star Sword fuses with the handle of Shoutmon's mic and ignites into a Flaming Sword.
Shoutmon X4 can DigiXros with Spadamon to become the Dual Wielding Shoutmon X4S, Spadamon's entire body transforming into a lance in its spare hand. Likewise, a DigiXros with Knightmon and the PawnChessmons creates Shoutmon X4K, which wields Knightmon's sword while the PawnChessmons become a much larger shield.
DarkKnightmon consists of the short-statured SkullKnightmon wearing the beastlike DeadlyAxemon, granting him longer legs and an axe blade on his shoulder. On the rare occasion they separate, they can recombine into "SkullKnightmon Big Axe Mode", where these components form an oversized weapon for him to wield.
During the final battle, Yuu/Ewan DigiXroses Kiriha's Gaossmons with the PawnChessmons to get a swarm of PawnGaossmon, which are just the Gaossmon using PawnChessmons' shields and spears as Backpack Cannons.
Digimon Universe: App Monsters has App-Linking, which combines two Appmon such that one gets a strength boost and either an appearance change to reflect the fusion or the equipped Appmon floating intangibly behind them to go with the new powers. In some cases, the equipped Appmon can even use their own powers from within the fusion, such as Globemon using his Ultimate Search after Shutmon links with him.
An episode of Digimon Ghost Game brings us the first anime appearance of Zubamon, a diminutive armored dragon that can turn into a golden sword. He has SymbareAngoramon wield him in battle against a Musyamon who had spent most of the episode as an Evil Weapon that had possessed and consumed other Digimon. Angoramon himself narrowly avoided the latter fate thanks to Zubamon's intervention. Zubamon's shield counterpart, Ludomon, has yet to be seen.

Disgaea:
Disgaea 3 introduced a mechanic to the series called "Magi-change". This allowed any monster type unit to fuse with a humanoid unit by turning into a weapon for them to wield for a few turns.
The PSP remake of Disgaea 2 had this mechanic added, although (presumably to avoid breaking the game) you have to unlock the alternative plotline first.
Disgaea 4 allows as many as four monsters to fuse together before transforming into a weapon and allowing you to dual wield these weapons, thus allowing you to technically have as many as eight allies equipped at the same time.

Bleach:
The zanpakuto are this in reverse in some cases; they start off as empathetic weapons and eventually begin to manifest a corporeal form to attack alongside their wielder. Most of these are just a more powerful weapon, but there are some exception's (Renji's turns into a giant snake, for example... with a Wave-Motion Gun in its mouth).
Lilynette is effectively Starrk's zanpakuto, as both were originally part of the same Hollow but are now in separate bodies. Ukitake and Kyoraku are quite bemused by seeing pistol!Lilynette and Starrk arguing loudly. Perhaps their own zanpakuto aren't so chatty.
In the Zanpakuto Tales Filler Arc (which was semi-canon, since it was based on an idea that the manga's creater never made use of), all of the zanpakuto manifested humanoid forms (although this slowly wore off as they ran out of energy, so they returned to normal when the arc ended). It's implied that they appear this way in their wielders' Mental World but only Ichigo's, Renji's, and Shunsui's (and the Filler Villain of the arc) have ever been shown, though there is a small conflict with canon in the filler. Renji's spirit is shown as a snake-boy and a baboon-lady instead of the white baboon with a snake for a tail that was shown earlier in the show.

Kamen Rider Wizard
The eponymous Rider can use the power of his Phantom Wizardragon for Dragon versions of his four element forms, having a different part of his body added to his suit in his version, the Dragon's fire-breathing head on his chest for the red-colored Flame Dragon Style, the Dragon's wings for the green-colored Hurricane Dragon Style, the Dragon's tail for the blue-colored Water Dragon Style, and the Dragon's claws on his hands for the yellow-colored Land Dragon Style. All four body parts are used for his All Dragon Style, which is primarily red in favour of the other colors, as well as Special Rush Style, an all-red version used in his first crossover movie.
Similarly, the Second Rider, Kamen Rider Beast, uses the power of the Phantom Beast Chimera, who is primarily a lion with features of four other animals, Falcon, Chameleon, Dolphin and Buffalo. Beast's basic suit resembles a lion but also has access to Mantles which appear as animal heads on his right arm, allowing him to use the powers of the other four animals.

Nura: Rise of the Yokai Clan:
Yura Keikain's shikigami Rentei transforms into an arm cannon in Yura's arm that shoots a powerful stream of water.
Rikuo's ability Matoi (originally developed by his father Rihan) blurs the line between this trope and Fusion Dance. Technically the other party is possessing Rikuo or Rihan's human side but in practice if very much looks like Rikuo being in charge with their ally seeming form a fancy set of clothes or themed armour that allows Rikuo to use their abilities.

Subverted during the course of Channel Awesome movie Kickassia. At one point 8-Bit Mickey suggests using Handsome Tom's head as a battering ram, which Tom responds to with an outraged "Hey!" When the idea is shot down because Tom's head would be too soft to make a good battering ram, Tom reacts the exact same way, and with equal outrage.

The Future is Wild has the Terabyte, a termite evolution speculated to live 200 million years in the future. The species has a caste system where only the transporter caste has legs while the gum-spitter caste has a sticky spray made to subdue prey. As such, the transporters carry around the gum-spitters like living glue guns in order to trap Garden Worms while the transporters cut off and remove algae from them.

Tales Series:
In Tales of Destiny the main party members wield Swordians, sentient magical swords containing the minds of a team of ancient heroes. In the original release, they could swap Swordians to gain access to different kinds of elemental magic. The PS2 remake outright removed the option for these party members to wield other weapons besides their assigned Swordian.
Luke from Tales of the Abyss will occasionally use Mieu as an improvised flamethrower.

Naruto:
Briefly downplayed when Naruto uses the Transformation Jutsu to disguise himself as his ally's shuriken, enabling him to use his teammate's deliberate miss to slip past the enemy's defenses, drop the transformation, and nail him from behind with regular attacks.
Three years later, he essentially does the same thing, but with a Rasen-shuriken.
Madara Uchiha can equip a Tailed Beast with his Susanoo like it was a suit of armour.
Guruguru also qualifies. Obito literally wears him while making a botched attempt to save Rin. He hadn't fully recuperated from his injuries just yet so he wouldn't have enough strength to fight effectively otherwise.

A few cards depicting Unown released through Generation IV could also be equipped, for various effects. Unown E stands for "Equip," even, and grants extra HP to the Pokémon it's equipped to. Unown G, for "Guard," blocks any effects of attacks except direct damage to the Pokémon it's attached to. Unown Q, for "Quick," reduces the Energy cost needed for the Pokémon it's attached to to retreat.

The video game EOE: Eve of Extinction features weapons made by converting a human's neural structure into an operating system, the most powerful one's being the protagonist's girlfriend and The Dragon, who also happens to be The Man Behind the Man. Although its not made clear if former's an actual example of this, if she can project some sort of hologram or if the cutscenes show her in humanoid form for convenience sake The Dragon certainly is.

In The Sacred Blacksmith, all demon swords which exist long enough will become capable of shapeshifting into a human form and vice versa at will. Cecily eventually gains Aria as her sword, and becomes the first person to see her as a friend instead of property. Some people try to buy Aria, which pisses Cecily off that they think of her as just a sword instead of a person.

In Incredibles 2, Mr Incredible discovers that the baby Jack-Jack can be "commanded" to fire Eye Beams when held, just like a laser gun. Later on, Violet uses him to shoot down a flying super who has abducted Dash.

The Crown Tundra DLC for Pokémon Sword and Shield introduces Calyrex, who can use the Reins of Unity with either Spectrier or Glastrier to become Shadow Rider or Ice Rider Calyrex. These forms are just Calyrex riding on the respective horse's back.

One story arc of The Adventures of Dr. McNinja involved banishing a demon. There was a family of demon hunters who could do so, however the last in their line was the product of some serious inbreeding. As a result he was unable to use his legs, so Judy the Gorilla wielded him while he wielded his sword.

Kung Fu Panda 3: During the fight against the Jade Zombies, Po stuffs his cheeks with buns, Viper circles his belly with her body and Tigress pulls on her tail, making Po spits the buns like a machinegun on Kai's minions.

Kamen Rider Drive:
Belt-san can count as one, since he himself is not only a sentient, talking Transformation Trinket, can move around by himself when plugged into his mechanical "body", but can also control Tridoron, no matter if he's being worn by Shinnosuke or is plugged inside the car, making him an equippable AND rideable ally.
the Shift Cars can also be considered this since they show some form of sentience and even personality (for example, one of them wanted revenge against a villain for damaging another Shift Car it considered its friend) despite not being able to communicate aside from honking; and can be used by Shinnosuke to change forms and use a wide array of powers.

Kamen Rider Ryuki subverts this trope with its combat system. In this show, Riders form contracts with monsters which allows them to use the powers of said monster in combat. This mostly manifests in them summoning weapons based on the body parts of these monsters. An example are Ryuki's sword and shield, which are formed from his monster's tail and chest respectively. While it looks like this trope is in play here, the monsters don't actually shed their bodyparts to deploy the equipment.

Kamen Rider Saber:
This series has an inversion with the King of Arthur power up. This power initially manifests itself as an extra sword for Saber to wield, which can transform into a Humongous Mecha. Said mecha can then wield Saber as a sword, inverting this trope, as Saber becomes the Equippable Ally to the mecha.
Yuri's true form is that of the Kougouken Saikou, a sentient floating sword. His usual fighting style involves summoning a Rider-like shadow that wields the sword against his enemies. But it is also possible for him to be wielded by other Riders as an extra sword.

In The Order of the Stick, Vaarsuvius, when faced with an enemy spellcaster who's prepared countermeasures for all their normal tactics, realizes that they could still damage him with a ranged weapon. Unfortunately the elf is a Squishy Wizard with nothing but magic (and no bow on hand anyway). Fortunately, the foe's ally happens to be a kobold with dual crossbows. They simply grab said kobold and use a dominate spell to force him to shoot. Fans immediately designated this the wielding of a "semi-automatic kobold."

Fallout: New Vegas:
The K-9000 Cyberdog Gun is a fairly roundabout method of doing this; it consists of a dog's Brain in a Jar hooked up to cybernetic audio and olfactory equipment, and attached to a triple-barreled BFG to help aim it. An upgrade puts it on a drip-feed of intelligence-boosting drugs to increase the rate of fire.
A non-weapon variant is the Mk II Stealth Suit. Possessed of an onboard AI with an Extreme Doormat personality, "she" reminds you to turn off your PipBoy light when sneaking, feeds you medicine when you're hurt (50% HP or lower), and makes friendly small-talk (which becomes adorably pathetic whinging when you take her off).

Soul Eater:
The ability to turn into a weapon is essentially an ability some people happen to have. While they can do damage on their own, they're more effective when someone else wields them (explicitly acting as an amplifier for their wielder's own Ki Manipulation). The weapon-people are stated in several places to be the results of experiments conducted by Arachne, combining the Mage Species' shape-shifting with normal humans. Which explains why they achieve their ultimate form by eating the soul of a witch. Humorously, Soul Eater Not! states that the security scanners in airports go off just from weapons stepping through them. In fact, this is how many people discover they're weapons. Some of the Weapons (the Death Scythes in particular, but also Giriko) can use Partial Transformations to fight without a meister.
One particular instance from the manga shows Kilik teaming up the Death the Kid's usual partners Patty and Liz. Kilik normally dual-wields Half-Identical Twins Pot of Fire and Pot of Thunder who partially de-transform to wield Patty and Liz's pistol forms while technically still being wielded by Kilik. It sounds awkward but it made for one hell of a Combination Attack.

Dungeons & Dragons:
If you have the strength, you can swing other characters around as if they were weapons (although they would probably be counted as weapons meant for a creature larger than you). It's a lot more effective if the person you're swinging wears armor spikes and has a lot of hit points.
In addition, there are also equippable creatures called symbionts, which offer various benefits, but often at a cost to the host. These creatures also tend to be repulsive-looking parasites and most are evil to boot, so they're usually the realm of less morally stringent characters.
Battleloths, introduced in an issue of Dragon, are mercenary fiends that can shapeshift between small humanoid forms and fully-functional magic weapons such as crossbows, axes or swords. This allows them to make additional attacks while their employer is wielding them, help their bearer aim blows, or surprise foes by shifting into humanoid form mid-melee.
There's an old D&D joke about an Ogre's magic wand, which consists of a kobold sorcerer that's been tied to a small tree.
A 3rd Edition Dragonlance bestiary introduces feeders, aka "knifewyrms," tiny dragons that happen to take the form of fully-functional daggers when they hold still. In this way they let themselves be picked up and used by humanoids, so they can drain the blood of their victims.

The Edel Raids of Elemental Gelade are (generally hot) girls and women who form a bond with a human to transform into absolutely devastating weapons — usually a melee weapon; although ones that turn into an Arm Cannon just as dangerous to their masters as their opponents are not unheard of. The downside to this is that they then have to re-charge through some way or another, for example, excessive eating or sleeping, or physical contact with their human. They also have a shoddy knockoff version known as "Sting Raids" which do much the same thing, although certain ones can do this without human hosts.

Pokémon Trading Card Game:
The earliest example is the first set's Electrode. The player can Knock Out Electrode and attach it to another Pokémon, upon which it becomes 2 Energy of one type of the player's choice. The Electrode in the later set "Secret Wonders" would have a very similar ability.
Holon's Electrode, Holon's Magneton, and Holon's Castform can also be equipped, as 2 Energy of every type simultaneously. Holon's Voltorb and Holon's Magnemite can also be equipped as Energy, but for 1 Colorless (typeless) Energy.
A few cards depicting Unown released through Generation IV could also be equipped, for various effects. Unown E stands for "Equip," even, and grants extra HP to the Pokémon it's equipped to. Unown G, for "Guard," blocks any effects of attacks except direct damage to the Pokémon it's attached to. Unown Q, for "Quick," reduces the Energy cost needed for the Pokémon it's attached to to retreat.

Gintama played with the concept in the Owee Arc (chapters 147-149 of the manga and episodes 98-99 of the anime). Considere it one of the funnier, if not the funniest use of this trope up to this day. Even if the concept of 'ally' is somewhat questionable...

Transformers: Armada: Tidal Wave is a rare example of this trope where the equippable ally is larger and more powerful than the ally he equips to, being able to split apart in order to combine with Megatron and later Megatron's upgraded form Galvatron in order to activate Megatron/Galvatron's Super Mode. The combination of Galvatron and Tidal Wave is basically unstoppable.

Kamen Rider:
Kamen Rider Ryuki subverts this trope with its combat system. In this show, Riders form contracts with monsters which allows them to use the powers of said monster in combat. This mostly manifests in them summoning weapons based on the body parts of these monsters. An example are Ryuki's sword and shield, which are formed from his monster's tail and chest respectively. While it looks like this trope is in play here, the monsters don't actually shed their bodyparts to deploy the equipment.
The Imajin of Kamen Rider Den-O. While most Riders of the series use the Imajin for a form change via Demonic Possession, Zeronos Zero Form and New Den-O Strike Form have their Imajin change into actual weapons.
The Arms Monsters of Kamen Rider Kiva work a bit like the Imajin in that they transform into weapons that in turn cause a form change. Depending on your definition of "weapon", the living Transformation Trinket Kivat and his relatives may also count.
One of Kamen Rider Decade's abilities is the Final Form Ride, which literally turned previous Heisei-era Kamen Riders into equippable allies based on their motifs or weaponry. Several of these turn into weapons or vehicles for Decade to use. Faiz, Blade and Kiva turned into a BFG,a BFS and a Bow. Agito turned into a hoverboard. The magazine-exclusive S.I.C. Hero Saga stories adds OOO to the list, who turns into armor for Decade that resembles OOO's own Tatoba Combo.
Kamen Rider Wizard
The eponymous Rider can use the power of his Phantom Wizardragon for Dragon versions of his four element forms, having a different part of his body added to his suit in his version, the Dragon's fire-breathing head on his chest for the red-colored Flame Dragon Style, the Dragon's wings for the green-colored Hurricane Dragon Style, the Dragon's tail for the blue-colored Water Dragon Style, and the Dragon's claws on his hands for the yellow-colored Land Dragon Style. All four body parts are used for his All Dragon Style, which is primarily red in favour of the other colors, as well as Special Rush Style, an all-red version used in his first crossover movie.
Similarly, the Second Rider, Kamen Rider Beast, uses the power of the Phantom Beast Chimera, who is primarily a lion with features of four other animals, Falcon, Chameleon, Dolphin and Buffalo. Beast's basic suit resembles a lion but also has access to Mantles which appear as animal heads on his right arm, allowing him to use the powers of the other four animals.
Kamen Rider Drive:
Belt-san can count as one, since he himself is not only a sentient, talking Transformation Trinket, can move around by himself when plugged into his mechanical "body", but can also control Tridoron, no matter if he's being worn by Shinnosuke or is plugged inside the car, making him an equippable AND rideable ally.
the Shift Cars can also be considered this since they show some form of sentience and even personality (for example, one of them wanted revenge against a villain for damaging another Shift Car it considered its friend) despite not being able to communicate aside from honking; and can be used by Shinnosuke to change forms and use a wide array of powers.
Kamen Rider Saber:
This series has an inversion with the King of Arthur power up. This power initially manifests itself as an extra sword for Saber to wield, which can transform into a Humongous Mecha. Said mecha can then wield Saber as a sword, inverting this trope, as Saber becomes the Equippable Ally to the mecha.
Yuri's true form is that of the Kougouken Saikou, a sentient floating sword. His usual fighting style involves summoning a Rider-like shadow that wields the sword against his enemies. But it is also possible for him to be wielded by other Riders as an extra sword.

Oni in Hell Teacher Nube have some limited shapeshifting ability —mainly, changing back and forth between their monstrous Oni forms and their human forms, and manifesting the occasional demonic body part (like wings) as human. But when, after a whole manga's worth of conflict and battle with humans, they willingly ally themselves with Nube and serve as his Oni Hand, they can transform into a multitude of tools, like blades, cannons, gigantic fists, wing harnesses, and more.

In Super Mario RPG, Bowser's Hurly Gloves turn out to be this, as he attacks by throwing Mario at the enemy, and, if you get a timed hit, catch him and throw him again. If Mario is unavailable for throwing, a little Mario action figure takes his place. His earlier Chomp weapon is also an example, as it's an actual living Chain Chomp that he uses as an Epic Flail.

When she gets overpowerd by the Oni Queen (who has the same abilities as Peaches, but more powerful), Bleu Berry offers herself as Peaches' weapon, guessing that since she's half-dragon, Peaches' powers will work on her.

One Piece:
A version happens when Zoro and Usopp are chained together with indestructible Sea-Stone handcuffs. Usopp attaches himself to Zoro's arm and is given a name as a katana, something like this.
The Thriller Bark storyline. While six of the pirates were fighting against Oars, Franky equips himself with four of his allies, Combining Mecha-style. This results in Chopper on his head, Usopp on one of his arms, and Zoro and Sanji holding his legs. The only other pirate present was Robin, who refuses to participate. In some anime filler, while they're still up against Oars, Franky tries again, this time with just Chopper and Usopp "docked in", and attempts to attack Oars, only to find that his attacks are ineffectual. One Piece: Unlimited Cruise features a variation of this where Luffy and Brook participate along with Chopper, Usopp, Zoro, and Sanji, with Brook on Franky's other arm and Luffy on his shoulders (and Chopper on Luffy's head instead of Franky's). The original formation also appeared in One Piece Gigant Battle 2 New World.
Baby 5's Buki Buki no Mi, Devil Fruit let's her turn her body - in whole or in part - into any weapon. Usually she uses it in a way for her to be wielded or launched by her partner Buffalo, who's own Devil Fruit Power lets him turn his limbs into fully functional helicopter propellers for flight and powerful spinning, potentially making the two of them a deadly bladed whirlwind.

Pokémon:
Honedge (a Steel/Ghost sword pokemon) from Pokémon X and Y subverts this. Any trainer who attempts to wield it as a weapon will find it draining their life force.
The Crown Tundra DLC for Pokémon Sword and Shield introduces Calyrex, who can use the Reins of Unity with either Spectrier or Glastrier to become Shadow Rider or Ice Rider Calyrex. These forms are just Calyrex riding on the respective horse's back.
In Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, a Tatsugiri with the Commander ability used alongside an ally Dondozo in a Double Battle will essentially leave the field and give Dondozo a large boost to all its stats. Dondozo's Secret Art Order Up changes effect depending on what type of Tstsugiri it's "equipped" with.

The Final Fantasy series has a few examples;
In Final Fantasy VI, Umaro sometimes throws other party members (or himself) at the enemy as an attack.
Rinoa from Final Fantasy VIII summons her dog Angelo for special attacks. In one of them, she launches Angelo from her arm, in the same way she usually launches her chakram.
In Final Fantasy XIII-2, Mog serves as one to Serah, being able to transform into a sword or bow for her to wield.

Magic: The Gathering:
Artillerize involves basically turning a creature into a missile (in-game, this translates as sacrificing a creature to fuel a direct-damage spell).
Fodder Cannon is an artifact that allows sacrificing a creature to deal damage, with flavor text that implies that the creature in question is literally being shoved into the cannon and shot at the enemy. There's also at least one Giant creature that can fling another creature in the same way.
Another way to invoke this trope involves Bludgeon Brawl, which causes all non-creature artifacts to be treated as equipment. When combined with Liquimetal Coating, which turns a non-artifact permanent into an artifact, it's possible for a creature to literally pick up a Planeswalker and smash things with them.
The Living Weapon mechanic from the Scars of Mirrodin block allows Equipment cards with the ability enter the battlefield already attached to a newly-created 0/0 Germ token. Moving the Equipment "kills" it (that is, causes the Germ token attached to it to die). With the current policy that creatures can't be Equipment, this mechanic is the closest we're likely to get.
The changelings of Lorwyn primarily take the forms of other living creatures. However, they are also known to form themselves into equipment capable of being used by their allies, often by directly bonding with their bodies. This is represented in-game through Blades of Velis Vel, Shields of Velis Vel and Wings of Velis Vel.
The Theros block, based on Classical Mythology, introduces the "Bestow" mechanic. Creatures with Bestow can be "hard-cast" as mooks, or bestowed as a Status Buff on a pre-existing mook, who gains the bestow-creature's power, toughness and abilities. This can result in a totem-pole of enchantments riding around on a single creature. And, if that creature is killed, all the bestow creatures "fall off" and become creatures in their own right.
Kamigawa: Neon Dynasty uses a new take on this with the "Reconfigure" mechanic, which are simply cards that can function as either creatures or equipment.

Sword of Elpisia: This is pretty much the premise of the game. "Magiswords" are powerful weapons, that are created by transforming people into them. While the result is for the most part inanimate, preexisting bonds between transformed person and the wielder can increase the Magisword's power. Alice ends up transformed into a Magisword to bail the party out of Hopeless Boss Fight, but she is able to turn back into the human form, making her a more clear-cut example.

Yoku's Island Express:
The most prominent example is when you befriend a Sootling who becomes your grappling hook.
While you don't actually equip them at any point, your inventory includes Skvader, who drops tons of fruit, and Kickback, who will block you from losing a ball and occasionally serve as your Exposition Fairy. Why they appear in your inventory is anyone's guess, because you can only use them when you grab them as items in a pinball table.

A more pacifistic example is Peke from To Love Ru. A two-foot shapeshifting robot that usually forms the resident Magical Girlfriend's clothes, casual or otherwise.

Yu-Gi-Oh! TCG has several instances of this:
Several monsters, such as Catapult Turtle, Cannon Soldier, and Man Thro' Tro, require sacrifices of other monsters to use their effects, and the anime and/or card art sometimes show them using the ally as ammunition.
Union monsters have the effect of being able to equip themselves to appropriate monsters, or de-equip themselves to return as monsters in their own right.
Several specific archetypes, such as Dragunity, Vylon and the Inzektor series, have the ability to turn other members of their group into equip cards to gain helpful abilities.
Some cards, such as Sword Hunter or the Meklord Emperors, turn this trope into Equippable Enemy, allowing them to turn enemy monsters into equip cards and equipping those monsters to themselves to power up.
Relinquished can steal a monster from the opponent's side to use as an equip card, taking all its ATK and DEF points for itself (it has 0/0 normally). What's more, should Relinquished by destroyed in battle, the monster it absorbed is destroyed instead, with both players losing the life points.

Super Sentai and Power Rangers:
Choujin Sentai Jetman: Tetra Boy, the third Humongous Mecha for the team, can either fight as a support robot, or transform into the Tetrabuster cannon, which could be used by Jet Icarus or Jet Garuda.
Byakkoshinken / Saba, a sentient sword used by the Sixth Ranger in Gosei Sentai Dairanger / Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers season two. In Dairanger it initially did all the talking when the Sixth Ranger was transformed to hide the fact he was a child.
The mecha of the Sixth Ranger of Seijuu Sentai Gingaman and its adaptation Power Rangers Lost Galaxy is a giant bull that can transform into a suit of armor for its owner.
Both Barikion and Unigolon from and Mahou Sentai Magiranger can transform himself into a set of armor for Wolzard and later Kai to fuse with, turning them into a Humongous Mecha like form. Power Rangers Mystic Force adapted these as Catastros and Brightstar respectively. Mystic Force also a another Equipable Ally, in the form of Fire Heart; a dragon that turns into samurai-like armor for the Red Ranger to access his Super Mode.
Zuban from GoGo Sentai Boukenger can turn into a sword that others can wield. When he grows giant, this sword can also be wielded by the teams Humongous Mecha. His western counterpart, the Sentinel Knight from Power Rangers Operation Overdrive, does the same, but can also become armor and gear for the Red Ranger's Super Mode. Later on in the final episode of Kaizoku Sentai Gokaiger, Don uses Power Copying to change into Zubaan and folds into sword form to be wielded by Joe.
Kyouryuu Origami/Shark Zord from Samurai Sentai Shinkenger and Power Rangers Samurai is a living sword that can be wielded by both the rangers and their Humongous Mecha.
In Tokumei Sentai Go-Busters, the first three Go-Busters gain the ability to use the power of their robotic partners, the Buddyroids, who turn into data which forms armour on their suits in what is known as Powered Custom.

In Digimon Fusion, "DigiXros" allows a Digimon to temporarily absorb some of their allies to borrow their power, with the result normally resembling a Combining Mecha but sometimes entering this territory.
Shoutmon can DigiXros with Dorulumon to transform the latter into the "Dorulu Cannon", a twin-barrelled artillery weapon which cannot aim or fire itself. These barrels later become the legs of the main trio's true combination, Shoutmon X3. Similarly, MetalGreymon can DigiXros with Cyberdramon to transform it into the stationary "Cyber Launcher" weapon emplacement.
Starmon and the Pickmons can combine into various weapons for others to wield, including the Star Sword, Star Axe and Star Wheel. When they combine with Shoutmon X3 to become Shoutmon X4, the Star Sword fuses with the handle of Shoutmon's mic and ignites into a Flaming Sword.
Shoutmon X4 can DigiXros with Spadamon to become the Dual Wielding Shoutmon X4S, Spadamon's entire body transforming into a lance in its spare hand. Likewise, a DigiXros with Knightmon and the PawnChessmons creates Shoutmon X4K, which wields Knightmon's sword while the PawnChessmons become a much larger shield.
DarkKnightmon consists of the short-statured SkullKnightmon wearing the beastlike DeadlyAxemon, granting him longer legs and an axe blade on his shoulder. On the rare occasion they separate, they can recombine into "SkullKnightmon Big Axe Mode", where these components form an oversized weapon for him to wield.
During the final battle, Yuu/Ewan DigiXroses Kiriha's Gaossmons with the PawnChessmons to get a swarm of PawnGaossmon, which are just the Gaossmon using PawnChessmons' shields and spears as Backpack Cannons.

The Star Dragon Sword from Suikoden runs the line between this and Empathic Weapon. The sword has a full personality and regularly talks to (and berates) it's wielder and his allies. You also have to defeat it in combat to use it in the second game, though once obtained it does not appear to act on it's own again.

The Arms Monsters of Kamen Rider Kiva work a bit like the Imajin in that they transform into weapons that in turn cause a form change. Depending on your definition of "weapon", the living Transformation Trinket Kivat and his relatives may also count.

Ed, Edd n Eddy:
This role is given to Ed sometimes, most usually as a bludgeon. Though special mention goes the episode where the Eds try to be repairmen. Ironically, even though Ed caused most/all of the destruction in the episode, Eddy and Double D utilize him as the "ultimate tool" to try and fix Johnny's sink. Near the end of the same episode, Johnny (who was mad for the Eds destroying his house) uses Jimmy as a lance and Plank as a shield to get back at them. He even throws Jimmy to cut off their escape.
Also done from time to time with the Kanker Sisters, in which case they do this to May.

Infinite Dendrogram:
If, before the birth of their partner Embryo, a Master comes to recognise on some level that the world of Dendro is a real place rather than the "hyper-advanced videogame" it's marketed as, they can develop a Type: Maiden Embryo, which separate from its normal seven forms can also transform into a human woman. Maidens are described by the control A.I.s (who are essentially Embryos that ascended to godhood) as the beings most similar to themselves, and tend to have powers themed around "giantslaying". The protagonist, Ray, has a Type: Maiden-with-Arms Embryo named Nemesis, who transforms into a sword specialised in Counter Attacks and using the opponent's strength against them; a number of other Maidens also appear throughout the story.
Type: Apostle Embryos are the male equivalent of Maidens, born from hatred of the "gameworld" and a desire to see it destroyed. While understandably very rare, they also grow in power with disgusting speed (the most extreme known case, Apocalypse, reached maximum Rank while his Master was still level 0!).
On a simpler level, as Embryos develop up to seven forms they can switch between as they grow, it's possible (though unusual) for an Embryo to be an item in one form and an ally in another. This include's Shu's Baldr, which starts as an Arm Cannon before progressing into a gatling gun (both Type: Arms) and then various combat vehicles (Type: Chariot), some of which are capable of operating themselves (Type: Guardian). Its ultimate "land battleship" form normally follows Shu's orders without him being on board, but it can also temporarily transform into a Humongous Mecha which is worn by Shu like armour.

In Tales of Destiny the main party members wield Swordians, sentient magical swords containing the minds of a team of ancient heroes. In the original release, they could swap Swordians to gain access to different kinds of elemental magic. The PS2 remake outright removed the option for these party members to wield other weapons besides their assigned Swordian.

Maid RPG: The Snapmaid Dragon allows a maid to transform herself into a weapon, granting all of her stat bonuses to whoever wields it. The problem is, the maid can't then turn back so the player will have to roll a new character. Whether or not it's a Living Weapon is up to the player's discretion (although the book says "ceases to be a character," it's inherently ambiguous and the game runs on Rule of Fun anyway).

The weapon mode gets more powerful based on its level as a familiar, but given how long it takes to upgrade combined without how weak it is (it has good attack power, but its attack animations have such lengthy windups that it rarely hits enemies) it's never able to catch up to the weapons you can create by alchemy.

The Transformers: More than Meets the Eye:
Used as a dramatic, comedic climax when Swerve saves Thunder Clash from being taken hostage... by virtue of picking up Rung, who has transformed into his mysterious staff-like "ornament" mode, and bludgeoning the kidnapper with him. This is not the intended purpose of Rung's alternate mode, but seeing as how Swerve is a horrible shot and Rung is not a good fighter in the slightest, it was the best they could manage on very short notice.
On a more serious note, Vos of the Decepticon Justice Division has a sniper rifle for an alt mode. Nickel puts it to good use when she takes out Megatron's fusion cannon in one shot.

Transformers:
Megatron has a gun as his alt mode in The Transformers, allowing the likes of Soundwave and Starscream to wield him. He also displays the ability to shoot all by himself in his gun mode in the opening sequence of the first season.
G1 Shockwave didn't need anyone to wield him in his gun mode for him to shoot (though he was once forcibly wielded by Bruticus and made to shoot his own security sentinels when the Combaticons invaded Cybertron).
G1 Sixshot had a weapon mode somewhat like Shockwave's.
The Targetmaster gimmick from G1 paired figures with small robots called Targetmasters that could transform into weapons. Some newer figures have similar gimmicks revolving around Mini-Cons with weapon modes.
The Mini-Cons included with Power Core Combiners figures, in addition to having weapon modes for their commanders' robot and vehicle modes, also had armor modes that could attach to a combined robot's chest.
Ratbat and Laserbeak of Transformers: Animated, turn into musical instruments that Soundwave can use sound based attacks and hypnotism.
The Seacons were a combiner team with six members; whoever wasn't the torso, an arm, or a leg became a gun for Piranacon to wield. (Since this sixth member doesn't become part of the combiner mind meld, it's usually Nautilator.)
Shattered Glass: Megatron uses a small tank as an Arm Cannon. The tank's name is Rumbler, and like Optimus Prime's Roller, it can act on its own (though to what degree is ambiguous).

One of Kamen Rider Decade's abilities is the Final Form Ride, which literally turned previous Heisei-era Kamen Riders into equippable allies based on their motifs or weaponry. Several of these turn into weapons or vehicles for Decade to use. Faiz, Blade and Kiva turned into a BFG,a BFS and a Bow. Agito turned into a hoverboard. The magazine-exclusive S.I.C. Hero Saga stories adds OOO to the list, who turns into armor for Decade that resembles OOO's own Tatoba Combo.
