Could make good AdMech pieces as praetorian servitors, Demiurg constructs, Necron specialists or even Tau experimental battlesuits.

AT-43 wasn't really of any use to Inquisitor players when they launched it, but it looks to be slightly more useful a resource now.
Some of the Therian contructs would make good AdMech experiments as well.

What sort of material are these made from?

Good find Robey. My eye was particularly drawn to the biggest beasties I could find (being the spite-filled GM that I am...), so my particular favourite is this bad boy: http://www.rackham-store.com/boutique_us/fiche_produit.cfm?ref=THC202&type=760&code_lg=lg_us&num=48

As I think I whined about recently, it's usually obvious when a model's not GW, and I don't like mixing the sculpting styles all that much.
Having said that, a lot of them would make excellent non-Imperial constructs - Tau being the obvious option for many of them. The nice chunky rocket pods are a good find as well.

RobSkib: With some weapon doctoring, that'd make an .excellent. Necron tomb guardian...

They're all plastic pre-paints.  The quality's actually surprisingly good on the examples I've seen.

Do you know how hard/soft the plastic is?

I would say Citadel standard.  Not Heroclix stuff.

That's good to know - in that case I'm a lot more tempted to add them to my shopping list...

 :D Those would even be great looking aliens with really skinny bodies.  I have the Tau figure from GW and these guys might be a nice "For the greater good" alliance with the Tau
