Besides, they have blood. They just have an armor on their body or so. Totally should still get poisoned
I suspect dumping chlorine trifluoride onto Colossus would cause him to burst into flames. And I suspect that would cause damage of some kind, since chlorine trifluoride can cause actual sand to burst into flames. https://curiosity.com/topics/the-stupidly-dangerous-chemical-chlorine-trifluoride-can-make-anything-burst-into-flames-on-contact-curiosity/
Poisons work by interfering with the chemical or other molecular reactions that sustain the life of the organism. Poisons do not need to enter a bloodstream to work: animals like jellyfish with no circulation system at all can be poisoned, and poisons can work without entering the blood stream of animals that have blood. They can be absorbed and diffuse through an animal to work. If Colossus was just a block of metal, he'd be an inert paperweight. Stuff must be happening inside him, even if that stuff is happening to an all metallic body. That stuff can be interfered with.
This may no longer be canonical, but I remember that in the Handbook of the Marvel Universe it was stated that Colossus transformed into his metallic form by essentially recreating his body using osmium atoms replacing his carbon atoms while maintaining roughly the same functionality but with significantly enhanced durability. If that's still remotely canonical, then while Colossus would not be vulnerable to most normal poisons that affect normal people, simply because his body chemistry is so different from normal people, he would still theoretically be vulnerable to poisons, just ones that work on his special chemistry.
However, in the comics, his organic steel body was extremely toxic to Dimensional Beings. I think he should get a Blade equivalent damage boost to Dimensional Beings.
You're saying they can't be poisoned just because they have an organic steel body? You can still totally poison them
Colossus is not a robot ...
Colossus and UC are living beings, with blood. The game used an excuse that they have a steel body to give them bleed immunity. Due to being living creatures without resistance to poison, they can totally be poisoned (because again, a steel body won't do anything to protect them against poison).
Robots are not living beings. They don't have blood, and then they can't bleed. In addition, due to being robots, they are also immune to poison.
Again, like I explained before, the game created an excuse to make him bleed immune. It's not totally illogical, so it's acceptable
