A few more for your consideration.

Spoiler: Team Rocket Grunts who all work for Giovanni.

Spoiler: The Enclave soldiers who serve a A.I President.

Spoiler: The Hydra forces from Catain America.

Spoiler: Cybermen in Doctor Who all listen to the orders of the Cyber Controller.

More specific with the Enclave army?

Here's a nice obscure one for you. In the Three Worlds Cycle (fantasy literature), you have the Whelm, previously known as the Ghashad. They're an entire race (human, yes, but a separate race of humans, just as we have Semites, Slovaks, Slavs, etc.) who are literally born to serve. That's the entire reason for their existence, though they may have other talents they've always had a master, and they can't even remember their history before their first master. They operate as the main servants and soldiers of Rulke (the apparent villain of the first cycle, who later turns out to be pretty decent compared to some of the so-called protagonists), and when he's banished to another realm they go into hiding as they have no master to serve. They're brought out of hiding by Rulke's archenemy, Yggur, who renames them the Whelm and makes them his terror-guard, only for them to renounce Yggur and serve Rulke again when he returns from his banishment.

(by the way, not really spoilers there, as all this happens in the first book of an eleven-book cycle...)

Maybe a Picture of this Race please?

Spoiler: The Regular run of the mill Enclave Soldier. Their the most common type of Enclave you Encounter in Fallout 3.

Spoiler: I've also just thought of the Minions from League of Legends

No pictures, I'm afraid, unless Deviant Art has any fan art of them, reason being that there are no illustrations or artwork in the books and the covers are all landscapes or abstract art designed around a theme or artifact in the relevant book. However, I can give a brief description. They're humans, generally tall and very lanky, sometimes to the point of looking near-starved. They have pale or grey skin, and wear very drab clothes, and their skin feels cold and rubbery - they happen to come from the frozen lands in the south of the world. They also carry weapons, jagged swords that look more like a sawfish nose rather than an actual sword.

The Koopas/Goombas in the Mario franchise?
Eggman's robots in the Sonic franchise?
The Krimzon Guard in both Jak 2 and Jak 3?
The shadows in the Persona series?
Gru's Minions from Despicable Me?

I think some of my other choices were said already...

More specific for Eggman's Robots?
Also I think the Shadows in the recent Persona games, aren't exactly minions per say.

Specifically, in terms of of the Sonic video games, the robots that are scattered across the various levels with each one encompassing an animal after they're destroyed... I'm sure some of them have <link=http://sonic.wikia.com/wiki/Badnik>specific names, but since you're too busy going to the end of the level "as fast as you can", it doesn't matter unless you either care about the lore and/or you're reading the comics/watching the early 90's Sonic the Hedgehog TV series, I think...

Also, you're right about the shadows not exactly being minions in this situation, especially after the release of Persona 3...

 

[Scarim Coral]

Has anyone mention these lots?

Spoiler: The soldiers from Gatchaman/ Eagle Riders

Spoiler: Panthers Goon/ minion from Cutie Honey

White Zetsu from Naruto

Spoiler: Donquixote Pirates henchmen

Spoiler: Impel Down Blue Gorrila from One Piece

The Equalist, Military of the Earth Empire and the Red Lotus Sentries http://avatar.wikia.com/wiki/Red_Lotus_sentries from Legend of Korra and the Fire Nation Soldier (the mask ones) from Avatar: The Last Airbender.

Black Egrets from Skullgirls (Parasoul soldiers that she used in some of her moves).

Canterlot guards from MLP:FiM

The follows I will admit you probably won't put on the list as I cannot find any decent photos of them-
Millions (Baroque Work) from One Piece
There were these henchmen with numbers on them from the Highlander cartoon series. If its help the villain was named Kortan.
Speaking of films turned into a animated series, there was also a Flash Godorn cartoon (1996) but yet again there always been minion to the villain Emperor Ming.

 

[SweetShark]

Literally every single Tyranid below the Nord Queens.
Necron Warriors.
Every human below the Emperor of Mankind

OH! Minions, the literal ones from Evil Genius, which is a highly underrated game.

Can you be more specific with the Tyranids, Necrons and Emperor Armies?
Like for example the Zerglings from Zerg's Army.

Tyranids, [http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Tyranids] Necrons, [http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Necrons] the Imperial Guard [http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Imperial_Guard] and Space Marines [http://warhammer40k.wikia.com/wiki/Space_Marine] are all basically minions from Warhammer 40K

No, no. I already knew these armies.
That I ment is specific units that act like minions.

Spoiler: Novus Ohm Bots from Universe At War: Earth Assault

Spoiler: Hierarchy Grunt from Universe At War: Earth Assault

Also the Masari Disciple, again from UAW:EA is another example, but there is no good picture of one, sadly.
These are the baseline infantry units for the 3 factions in the game, the Ohm Bots fit most because their role is generally that of fodder to keep fire off of your stronger units.

EDIT:

Spoiler: Hideous from Bayonetta 2

I'd noticed you added the Affinity, and remembered that in 2 you're able to fight Infernals as well as the Celestials, and the Hideous are basically Inferno's version of Affinity.

Spoiler: Grineer Lancer from Warframe

Spoiler: Corpus Crewman from Warframe

The Lancer and Crewman are the most basic forms of infantry for the Grineer and Corpus, respectively, and are the most prevalent enemies you encounter in Warframe.

Spoiler: Goblins from Dungeon Defenders

Again, most basic unit you'll need to defend against, nothing really worrying about, definitely fits the "mook" title.

This remind me I must put the Droids from Star Wars.
