What do you expect from Western mecha? They tend to look the same/similar. They're all basically a robo version of tanks. Why? Cause why have average run-of-the-mill tanks when you can have giant robots that have multiple guns with huge menacingly stompy feet. Western mecha are more based in the real-robot genre where giant robots are depicted in a realistic light, like Mechwarrior, and as such, they are usually fitted into a much more basic and universal mold. Japanese mecha tend to be more varied and fantastical. Voltron, Tengen, Fricken power rangers, Big O. They also lean more towards the humanoid mold rather than the walking tank mold. Am I off-topic? Whatever. It would have been nice to have Super-robot type mechs in RWBY since every other character is a super hero with super powers.
