Powers and Abilities
Red Ronin is over 100 ft (30 m) tall and weighs in excess of 23 tons, and its design was influenced by traditional samurai armor. Red Ronin is controlled by a human operator who wears a "cybernetic helmet" and sits within its head.
Red Ronin possesses immense strength and speed, is highly durable and can fly at subsonic speed using the atomic propulsion units in its legs. It is armed with a pulsating "rotary discus" shield, with a solar powered "solar blade" laser-blade sword and doubles as an ultraviolet laser gatling gun device, on its right arm. Red Ronin also has a magnetic field generator in its shoulder epaulets and arm-mounted power blasters capable of firing blasts of concussive force equivalent to 100 tons of TNT. Additionally, the shield is also capable of firing missiles, which Red Ronin used during its battle against Yetrigar in the Grand Canyon, and can be used as a detachable thrown weapon, containing a homing device that enables it to return to the robot. Red Ronin's left hand also has the ability to convert to an energy cannon that projects energy blasts. In addition, it could release "Magneclamp cables" from its boot units, which were strong enough to hold and support a being as massive as Godzilla.
Ronin later gained the ability to to automatically repair its circuitry and to detach its hands from its body and retain control of them while detached.
As Namie/model UJ1-DX, the Ronin is actually reduced down to the size and appearance of a young Asian woman with red and black hair. Her main weapon is a red beam of light that extends from her wrists and can be fashioned into a variety of weapons. She has also demonstrated some advanced fighting techniques as well.

Famous quotes containing the words powers and/or abilities:
“I have come slowly into possession of such powers as I have ... I receive the opinions of my day. I do not conceive them. But I receive them into a vivid mind.”
—Woodrow Wilson (18561924)
“We may not pay Satan reverence, for that would be indiscreet, but we can at least respect his talents. A person who has for untold centuries maintained the imposing position of spiritual head of four-fifths of the human race, and political head of the whole of it, must be granted the possession of executive abilities of the loftiest order.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (18351910)
