Guys
I am looking for some bots/droids that can join a Sci-fi mercenary force that i am building and was hopeing that you may be able to help point me in the right direction.
to be more precise - 28mm, man size and not to heavy a weapon.
to give you an idea I already have a few of these http://www.antenocitisworkshop.com/guardian-robots-x2.html and want somthing similar.
-
There's the Copplestone Terminator robots and their EM-4 counterparts.
-
There's all the assorted Star Wars droids too from the CMG.
-
I think there are a few bots in the infinity range that match that styling. If you can find them, there's the robot gang from the old gangs of megacity one range (these have not been rereleased by mongoose for the JDM game). Pig Iron has a couple of wardroids available and I thing reaper has a few bots in their chronoscope range.

Here are some more:

I'm absolutly loving the concepts for the Micropanzer stuff, They have already got a place in my force.
and the seeker bot would fit in very well with what i am trying to do.
i have found a few other bits about but there realy isn't an awful lot of nice bots out there, shame, .................... right where is Jed when you need him, wonder what i can talk him into producing.

How big are the AE WWII Ones? I've been looking for something similar for a while.

scaled for 25/28mm but about 32/35mm tall. I'll measure then when I get a chance

They're not really humanoid but I personally really like the cheapo plastic EM4 robots. Especially the small one has a nice gritty SF feel to it, though not as sleek as you may want. Some examples:

All of these have had some conversion work done but they're very nice models by themselves as well:

I've got a load of those plastic EM4 droids going begging, about 30 or so, with a good weapons mix. I think there is a picture on one of my for sale threads in the bazar. They are all unpainted and would probably fit your bill.
-
These are nice, and inexpensive

You could use At43 Armored Cogs, they 'kindof' pass for robotish...

I got this one at Toys R Us. they are in the androiz range and were like 2 for $2. The missle pack was added and if I remember it originaly had a lazer gun on the top
