Looks like I made a mistake on these - I found an unboxing video while looking for the base size to get some idea on the size of these and found out that these are metal models with a resin base, rather than the more typical single casts. So if these do scale well for 6mm games then this is a good source for robots or dreadnought type walkers.
It is also worth taking a look at Sparta Studios, a spin off set of games. This has some 10mm sci-fi sets based on Firestorm Armada for more of the high-tech feel and also includes some walkers in the two factions so far. Unfortunately the walkers are not currently available outside of the starter sets so it may be a little harder to get hold of these.

Dystopian Wars
A very quick post of thoughts around Dystopian Wars. I have yet to see any of these in the resin but there are some good comparison pics floating around the net on 6mm themed forums and it they do look like they can pass muster for 6mm, especially the medium tanks.
Now I have looked at these models in their own right since their release but am wary of another scale to model for. So using these for Epic or similar might give me the chance to have a good look at the models with an actual chance of using them.
But looking at the shop I have noticed the Prussian Scandinavia Faust Class Robot, which I suspect may work very well for either Adeptus Mechanicus robots, or fit in quite well as Space Marine dreadnoughts. They would need to be removed from the bases which could be tricky but does fill a bit of a gap. Big question is how they scale but I am tempted enough to maybe make an order once I have my bits from Brigade through.
There is also the Covenant of Antarctica Atticus Class Medium Walker which have a good, if a bit to clean, look for Defilers. Now I currently do not plan on making a Chaos army as there is nothing I have come across to fill in for Chaos Marines with the exception of the Steel Crown Edenite Jump Infantry Squad to fill in for World Eaters.
Of course if anyone has any ideas for alternatives make a comment and I can try and pull things together.
