How much do you reckon those things weigh?

They are similar to a hollow cylinder 3 m high and with a diameter of 20 cm and internal diameter of 18 cm. The arms could be made from aluminum to reduce the weight.

With that, the four of them would weight approximately 200 kg. I suppose he is ripped inside that suit.

Plus all the electronics and motors to run them. That's pretty buff for a scientist.

Would he not have a mechanical exoskeleton to support the weight?

You'd hope so. I didn't see one in the movie, though.

That’s just how we dressed for a few years after Blade.

False. He never wears a sexy leather bodysuit in that movie no matter how many times I watch it. Stop spreading misinformation.
