Real life is definitely different, but what was the cost versus CGI? Man hours plus materials. It's probably close, but it would be interesting to see.

I would take inspiration from this to cosplay one day, but lets just say the design process might take awhile. Or should I come up with design specs and have someone bring it to life... hmm. I think a bigger bulkier person could sustain a even bigger robot suit. But how to balance it so not top heavy or weak on the bottom. Yes this is a comment monologue, if you read this then I'm sorry.
Calls others stupid, is incapable of spelling right...
