Of course, that's not preventing us from actually having humanoid fighting machines, just not the 10-meter+ tall type. In many areas, the humanoid shape is still the the most efficient at multi-tasking at our size level.
Like this example of a military powered exoskeleton being developed right now:

i agree.. this is a very
real possibility in my opinion. perhaps not even for military use, but surely there are a lot of benefits in creating an effective exoskeleton?
