User blog comment:Gundam Legilis/RWBY Volume 2 Speculation- "Suns"/@comment-7387716-20140715135320/@comment-24994749-20140715152350

I thought Balke's clones were at elast a bit solid, given she use done to stop one of Torchwick's shots before hiding during Black and White... I'm not saying getting hit by one is like getting hit by the real Blake, but I thought they were at least similar to Naruto's first shadow clones that disolved once they received a direct hit.

And similar semblances ain't unheard of. Cinder has been shown to produce fire from her hand and Yang releases fire form her hair.
