Does it have to be humanoid?

It has to mimic movements of organisms like a spider.

Does it have
to be used for war?

No, it doesn't have to fight in war! You could use a mech to go to work,
couldn't you (yes, I know they aren't real)

What critera are used to determine if a robot is a mech or not?  Does it • have
to be used for war?  Does it have to be big?  Does it have to be humanoid? • Is
a Throwbot a kind of mech (they are big compared to minifigs, they have
battles, and most are humanoid)?

Since then, Japanese anime (animated TV and movies) has been full of • them.
If you've never watched any, you're missing out!  Go to your local video
stores and look in the foreign/anime section for Macross, Gundam, Pat • Labor,
Evangelion etc. etc.
