Yeah i'm standing by my Ironwood theory after seeing that, maybe your right about defective models or maybe its got the same weakness all armor has; you got to have less armor at the joints to provide flexibility and that provides a weak point. Think about, minus the sensor (which is a pretty obvious target) everytime they took something off (minus Yangs super-pendulum-momentum-enhanced punch at the end which, couple with her normal strength makes sense why it shattered like that) they did so by hitting a joint, the shoulder or elbow. This is exactly how i would fight something like that, dodge around, nail a joint when opening occures, repeat till it can't move then nail it.
