I really like them!

The modified helldog looks really good! I like the head, it reminds me of a
particular Gundam ummmm, can't remember what it's called, anyway good job.
The jets on the back are nice, I like how you use the skis around the
outside. I love the giant chainsaw! I have something like that in the works
for my next mecha, except it uses the buzz saws from the RES-Q theme. I
really think the lower abdom...abdomominanal...abdominimin? uhhh... belly
section, is too thin. I think it would look better being six wide instead of
four IMHO. The cockpit is really well designed though...

Not having seen the Mummy returns, I can't say I know what a anubis warrior
is supposed to look like, but I must say, this mech does look cool. I really
like how the cockpit works, both the anubis and the helldog manage to fit
nice little cockpit's in an area that's only four wide! that is pretty neat
I think.
The inverted knees also look cool and distinguish it from other somewhat
thin mechs. The head is pretty neat too. I can't say I really like all of
the technic pieces on it, this may be influenced from the mech in the movie
though, I wouldn't know... Very good job on both your new mechs though!
