Earlier in the year I visited a local comicon (Birmingham UK) and I saw some great pre assembled and painted anime style mechs that would be great for Infinity. At the time I was only collecting Haqqislam so I moved on. I always try to at least have some miniatures for a rival faction / army in my collections so I can tempt players in to new game systems.
I picked up a combined starter recently I then remembered these mechs but I can recall the make. Any one else have any ideas?
BTW our club is quite relaxed on proxies, the CB are just on the edge of having too many small parts for me, hence if I can pick up a pre assembled plastic I'm happy.

Sorry Kid but he mentioned he has himself forgotten what they were and is actually asking for help.

Hi, the models I saw at Comiccon were what i think of as typical Anime bipedal mecha / robots even down to having hands less like Battletech style. The boxes had Japanese text on them, they were reasonably priced too which was the annoying thing ....

Maybe the
1/200 scale Macross gasshapon? They come in sealed, blind packs like Clix toys.

I think that was it, I have one winging its way from Tapai. At just over £6 it's worth a go.

Wow - I hate those.
I am constantly surprised by how widely varying tastes can be. If they make you happy, (in the incredibly unlikely circumstance that I'll face them across the table) I'll be happy to shoot them up.
