The photos just might be the angle of the camera view that makes the tender look different. Besides all those weights the motor itself is supposed to be faster to make him more Powerful. This, I surmise is the reasons for so much more weight.
The tip on the chrome weights seen through the windows must be a good one as I have seen supposed Powerful Gordons that had a face but no visible weights at all in the windows. Which would make it not an original. Powerful Gordon Mike did a fantastic job casting those big special weights out of metal for his Tribute models.
