Another interesting note. It is confirmed that Edo Tensei's are definitely weaker that their living counterparts.

”穢土転生”という不完全な形での復活に、予定していなかったアクシデントが起こったことを察知.

He sensed that an accident had occurred, since did not plan to be revived in an incomplete form due to the “Edo-Tensei”."

"Bottom Caption

完全なる肉体を取り戻し、隅々まで満ちる本来の力に喜びと興奮を隠せない.

Regaining a perfect and fleshy body, Madara could not hide his delight and excitement as his original strength filled every corner (of his new body)."

Now everyone can stop trying to say Edo's were just as strong as their living counterparts because this confirms they are most definitely NOT.
