Penny isn't a robot; she's an android. That's like saying a cyborg is a human, but strictly speaking it isn't.

Not to mention that I have never heard of Monty spoiling anything in regards to Penny; it's always the same old 'you'll know when you get there'.

Point. The Dust explosive Roman shot at her is ultimately Dust, and not physical shrapnels that can rip a person apart. It can be completely nullified by Aura given that the user has enough of them. A freaking truck however is tonnes of weight made up of pure steel. If Penny hadnt stepped in, we can say that Ruby's injuries would be akin to those who got run over by a car, considering their toughness - but it can easily still be bloody fatal.

If Ruby can bloody shrug off a truck to the face, she wouldn't need to panic in the first place. Heck, she didn't even need to look and sound so surprised to the point its approaching terror, when Penny stopped it with her bare hands. Not only that, look at the crowds' reaction. That is the clearest evidence that even in RWBY verse; to stop a truck with bare hands and showing barely any stress at all is not normal.

And I've already mentioned this before, but now I suspect you didn't even register our words completely. Penny isn an android, and likely has see through vision like infrared vision or the sort. Her laser did not hit anyone of the passengers, she simply cut the airplane in half. There's also this bullshit 'non-lethal' thing that RWBY may or may not choose to implement, but can explain this phenomenon completely.

Finally, compare Penny to an Atlesian Paladin. Who is more powerful? I'd say the answer is Penny. And if the Atlesian Paladin needs Team RWBY plus friends to take down, then where does Penny stand? If you still insist that Penny is < almost all of the main cast - which if you think about it seriously, is seriously lacking in brain cells since I repeat, Ironwood is not a man who will allow the creation of an android who can't win even a god damn First Year student! - then I rest my case. If you're wondering why ninjas aren't ruling the world, that's because speed is not The ultimate factor.

Like do you even remember who singlehandedly beat back three people of Team RWBY with strength, during a certain ''foodfight? ''

Oh, and please understand the word 'for the time being' and the word 'one on one'. I won't deny that Team RWBY may become insanely strong in the future, but now? No chance.

Also, if you're going to accuse Monty of 'lying', you had better back it up with real facts. As far as I've known Monty has never lied - misdirect things around maybe, but everyone does that - in an interview or his Tweets. If you want to say the Volume 2 Trailer is a big hoax, just remember there's such a thing called 'work in progress'.

Even if Tukson somehow turns out alive, you still cannot accuse Monty for lying. He has always clearly stated that one, he will not reveal future plots. He can say Tukson's death in his interview, and it can be (Tukson's 'death') and it technically isn't wrong. It's one thing to outright state that, yes, that character is going to what what and what, and just follow another person's flow and talk from there.
