Panoply

A “panoply” (PAN-uh-plee) - from the Greek for “a full suit of armor” - is a splendid or impressive array.

Example (as used by Michael Chabon in Werewolves in Their Youth): “The beige plastic bedpan that had come home from the hospital with him after his deviated-septum operation… now held ail his razors and combs and the panoply of gleaming instruments he employed to trim the hair that grew from the various features of his face.”
