They should be a team, each filling a different role. On the left is forward assault, center is support and communications, and right is recon. Since the bottom halves are the same on each, spare parts are easier to interchange between models too.
Cool, draw more of these. Try making different legs and different sizes of them. The one on the right looks awefully familiar. especially if it was yellow.
RP: you're not far off the mark from my intention; as can be seen, each mech has 2 small guns on the body (the distant one being obscured for the first two) and 2 of what I call "weapons pods," which would be interchangeable with each other (except for right/left orientation). The large gun and 6-missile launcher on the middle mech could be swapped with the weapons on the other mechs, for example. Also, each mech's torso would be capable of rotating over the base of the legs.
HK: yeah, Marcello preferred the other two as well. Strangely, I like the middle one most, but not by a wide margin.
Kabomb: Power Rangers? Good lord, no. :P Transformers is a stretch; the strongest distinct influence on these designs was probably Battletech. (w/ mechs such as the Uller/Kit-Fox and Shadowcat)
Walter: I'll probably draw more with humanoid legs. I used the same legs between them because legs are the hardest part to animate (which is pertinent to the reason I drew these in the first place). Prowler lives again?
Simple; they would have gaudy paintjobs, tasteless chrome, pointlessly powerful sound systems, and small legion of DVD video players installed in bizarre places, while their interior machinery would recieve no upgrades whatsoever.
