They sort of look like hefty clone troopers, but I like them. Armored plates beat potato heads.

I think they look really cool. They've got a nice Buck Rodgers thing going on. My hope is that they make some of them with jetpacks, since that will basically tick off all the Golden Age Space Opera boxes.

I can't really see making an army of them for 40K, though. The aesthetic clashes too much with the rest of the Imperium.

I think jetpacks would be cool too.  I'm sure they had them in the 31st millennium right?  Or, since they like to use the Heresy series to bring back Rogue Trader favorites, how about jetbikes?  :D

As the aesthetic, I think they would look quite well along side the old Legions, on account of the similar chunky looking armor.
