Robot Jox references in Pacific Rim

Human movements like

• Walking in place
• The Kung Fu fist in palm

Other

• The Russian spring fist punch vs. enemy
• The robot hand that looks like … a flower. 
• The armor and helmet of Jox 
• The human to human fighting for training. 
• Maybe… two ppl in cockpit end of movie let’s see. 
• Lots of variety in the races and nationalities. Japanese-American, Russian, white, black, mixed, etc. 
• The lone female jock  

 

Flower hand

Flower hand, note it even has what looks like a barrel hole/opening for attacking (it doesn't use it). 

 

Flower hand on Pacific Rim's Gypsy Danger, does glow and have an energy attack.
