Weights

[Alohilani]

RedRage made a topic about heights, so.

I'm mostly just concerned about XR's weight... since Buzz or Mira probably weigh as much as a normal human adult and asking Boooster would be ruuude.

See, there seems to be some discrepancy with XR's weight. Not that it changes from episode to episode, but... see, he's made of metal. Metal's a heavy substance. And it's not like he's hollow, either, in fact he's crammed with as many gadgets and gizmos as they could fit in there. Also, XR is small but not THAT small. He's short, but pretty bulky, he has a wider shoulder span than Mira, I believe. Also, he's just stocky all over, thick arms, thick legs, big feet. All in all, XR probably weighs at least... I'm going to be SUPER conservative and say 70 pounds. At least.

So then how come every member of Team Lightyear can just sorta toss him around like it's nothing? Come on. You know he HAS to be heavy. I know Booster has super strength, but Mira and Buzz probably don't, and he probably weighs nearly as much as Mira, so how come she can just haul him around, you know, just tote him around in a shoulder bag like he's a sack of flour or something... I mena, maybe he's made of some kinda leightweight future metal, but he can't be THAT light!

Well....he could be a light, yet durable metal, like you said? Perhaps he's made of a substance that is relatively feathered than normal. I wouldn't put it past them LGMs! XD

Or his arms and legs are hollow. Aren't they sort of like coiled sheet metal discs tethered to a central column inside of them? They're like hockey pucks, but with a hole drilled into the center. What if they're hollow inside? I dunno....If anything, I would expect his feet and head to be heavy

[Alohilani]

....Feathers?

CHICKEN!XR

...anyway. XD; Yeah, I think his arms and legs are hollow...

I always thought he was like a giant aluminum can.



a CUTE giant aluminum can

[Alohilani]

Yeah, but that can is full of gadgets and stuff...

[levy120]

Depends... how heavy is a life-raft? xD It takes a lot of space I guess x3

[Alohilani]

...Didn't the LGMs give him in ANVIL in TAB? XDD

70 still isn't too much - I'm around 95 lbs and I know plenty of people who can pick me up and toss me around.

And Mira and Buzz are probably pretty strong because they went through ranger training and all that.

Yeah - if he still has that anvil though, he's probably pretty heavy...

[RedRage]

How heavy do you think the ship is?, a car can weigh 2 tons. So what 14 tons?, maybe more?. How big is the ship exactly?.

[eez]

You're only 95lbs BG?! I could bench press you! D:

A star cruiser you say? Hmmm....with alloy, fuel, support frame and what not...I'd say close to...15 tons easily. Could be more.
