Aye.The one thing I disliked about Colossus more than anything was his actual skin. I get that they didn't have the budget of a bigger movie, but I prefer more of a sheen to his skin. It should look less matte/dull. Not the liquid metal look from DOFP, but still.
Steel
Comic Colossus has a chromish touch to his skin though
Originally posted by PhilosophíaThat sounds like a descent estimate. As for how long he held it it's hard to say but I'm assuming he held is for a little while.
It's quite quantifiable, if we take the average weight of a skyscrapper, which is around 250,000 tons.
Nice feat, definately one of his best.
I just noticed something that may shed some light on how long Colossus held that building up, Kitty told Nightcrawler to teleport any stragglers out of the building. We don't actually see how many he teleported out of the skyscraper but it's quite possible that Colossus held the building for a descent amount of time for that to happen being he had to check the entire building.

Hmm, that's a good point. Kurt gets tired porting more than two or three at a time iirc, so it must have taken at least a few minutes.

Not to downplay the feat, but didn't Nimrod calculate Pete is at 500+ tons recently?
Did he? I must have missed that.
Okay, so it was a little longer than I though. The scan was originally on page 86 I think, back in 2010. Judging by the comments Nimrod had Colossus at 1.5 tons for every pound. At 500 lbs, he'd be at 750 tons.
I'm not sure what to think of it being capped around that area. Pr, you're a big fan of him, is that what you think Colossus should be at?
He actually weighs more than 500lbs. He weighs closer to a ton, if not an actual ton.
He's been dropped as a human bomb before, he's thrown off the calibration of the X-Jet because he was armored up and they didn't account for that.
He's actually been stated on panel to weigh a ton.
And there's simply no way the densest metal(Osmium) is comprising an entire 7+ foot tall man and he's only 500lbs.
So at the least Nimrod would have him at around 3,000 tons.

Yup.
Though if it's not 500lbs, what's the consenus? A ton? Two?
He did:
Another time, he did so under moon's gravity when X-Men were fighting Shi'ar (Phoenix saga), but Piotr was human then.
Yet another instance happened during the time when Colossus was thought to be dead because of the Legacy virus... one of those weird death dream/afterlife scenarios that haunt Logan. Wolverine and Colossus fighting against Logan's dead villains (Shingen, Geist, Cyber and more), ending with Logan picking Colossus up and throwing him at them. I'd totally count it, as it was totally awesome, but it's canoncity/msg boards validity may be questioned in more way than one, of course.
