Mazinger's Breast Fire: How Hot is it?

I know it's a dumb idea to question physics and science in a super robot show, but I can't help but wonder about this one. What temperature does Mazinger Z's breastfire fire at, given how it melts solid metal?

More importantly, what is Mazinger made of that allows it to do that? In the Mazinkaiser OVA, he hit a group of evil-bots and literally turned them into liquid metal. :?

He's made of some special alloy- Chogokin Z

The Mazingers are made from one of those standard sci-fi Unobtanium alloys - in this case, it's dubbed Super Alloy Z (Chogokin Z). Mazinkaiser in specific is armored with Chogokin Nu Z Alpha, which is insanely strong.

And I've never actually seen an exact figure for Mazinger's Breast Fire, honestly.

There really aren't exact figures. The most exact we got from a Go Nagai Super Robot is how many volts are used in Thunder Break and Space Thunder and I forgot those.

Seriously, just insanely hot.
I am a general mecha fan! Anything from Mazinger Z to Gundam, Getter Robo to Macross!

It's possible that the heat can be adjust. Not canon, but in SRW @ Gaiden Kouji use breast fire to dry pile of washed cloth (by Turn A and Miria's Valkyrie, if you curious). And it doesn't damage the cloth at all.
