As already said, I play Cyriss and the Reductors are one of the worst models I've ever seen. They should be akin to Necron Warriors.
They require a fair bit of cleaning, but apart from that I found nothing wrong with mine. What was so bad in yours?
The Reductors remind me a bit on C-3PO in Star Wars, but the models are more walking like Zombies.

So you have nothing against the technical side, you just don't like the aesthetics of the final product?

Its the aestetics of some models like the Cyriss' vectors or reductors but also the material as already discussed above.
