The Minion Races List: Help is needed

[SweetShark]

I decided to create a new List for Pinterest and the today subject is the different kind of Minions or something similar, you see in different Kind Media.
To be more specific:

"A minion is nothing more than a yes-man, a nameless faceless servant. It is a negative term implying that your only importance is from the person who orders you around."

So in our case, I am looking for specific Races and Foot Soldiers that act like Minions for something above them or a Leader.

It will be also helpful if you can also post a pictures of the Minions in question.

Here are some examples and the List below in question:

Cheers and thank you for your help!

The Locust from Gears of War. Pretty much all of them. They all answer to the Queen and all are loyal to her. All of them all look the same as well.

Federation Troopers from Starship Troopers. All of them wear the same uniform and insignia and all of them seem to die by the truck load against an army of bugs.

Stormtroopers from Star Wars. Faceless soldiers with poor aim. Not sure what else to say about them.

That's all I can think of right now.

Zerglings [http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/starcraft/images/1/18/Zergling_SC2_CineCardToPlay1.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100916100946] come to mind, as do the Bison Troopers [http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/streetfighter/images/2/26/Bison_Troopers.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20120226221930] from the Street Fighter Movie.

Might want to suggest in the OP that people post pictures, would spice it a little and make it easier for you to figure out if it deserves to be on the list or not.

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.

The Vehicon from Transformers Prime come to my mind http://tfwiki.net/wiki/Vehicon_%28Prime%29 althought I see them more as cannon fodder.

Also there are these lots-
Hydra agents http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydra_%28comics%29 Hand ninjas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hand_%28comics%29 and AIM agents http://marvel.wikia.com/Advanced_Idea_Mechanics_%28Earth-616%29 all from Marvel universe.

Ninja from League of Assassin http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/League_of_Assassins and the Talons from Court of Owls http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Court_of_Owls from DC comics

Monarch Henchmen http://venturebrothers.wikia.com/wiki/Monarch_henchmen from the Venture Bros

Servbot from Mega Man http://megaman.wikia.com/wiki/Servbot

Well not to be to obvious but Orcs. 90% of the time they're mindless minions of whatever evil. On that note actually Trollocs in "The Wheel Of Time" books fit that as well.

I think there were also Vehicons in Beast Machines.

Theres various minions in Power Rangers like the putties, tengu warriors and crybots.
Do Terminators count?
Red Steel 2 had the Jackals, Katakara clan and Ninjas.
Speaking of ninjas what about the Foot and Krang bots from TMNT.
The Space Pirates from Metroid.

That the mos I can think of.

Zerglings [http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/starcraft/images/1/18/Zergling_SC2_CineCardToPlay1.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20100916100946] come to mind, as do the

Thanks. Now I'm picturing the zerglings as over-eager yes-men.

Let's see...

- Those Ninja Crows from Samurai Pizza Cats. Somehow those are the first I thought off.
- Don't forget Red Shirts in Star Trek, aka good-guy-minions.
- The Ginyu Force from Dragonball Z.
- Death Eaters from Harry Potter.
- The Anbu from Naruto are good-guy-minions as well.

That's all I can think off for now.

 

[Eddie the head]

On yeah in one of Yahtzee's recent YouTube videos he showed off an old game he made. In that there was a genetically engineered race called "Red Shirts." Literately there only purpose was to die.

 

[Dr. Thrax]

Don't forget the Minions from the Overlord!
They even come in multiple colors!

 

[Ryallen]

The Loaders from Borderlands 2 are all different bodies for a single AI. Bandits are also subservient to a single Bandit Leader, whoever it may be for each area. More often than not, you end up killing them.

 

[freaper]

Technically all the creatures in Dungeon Keeper, but I'd only include the oh-so-slappable imps.

The Team Rocket (or other gen specific mob) grunts.

Most enemies you fight in the Arkham games, especially the color-coded hooligans from Arkham City.

 

[FPLOON]

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...

 

[teqrevisited]

The Prinnies of the Disgaea series.

They are the souls of criminals and otherwise worthless humans who have been reincarnated into stitched-together skins that look oddly like penguins. The vast majority of them are identical, with only a handful of npc prinnies being a different colour or something else entirely. They are generally indentured servants and must literally buy their spiritual redemption with their wages; that is unless they are thrown, in which case they will explode.

 

[DementedSheep]

Kobolds and goblins in almost everything. Orcs at least get to be the big bad sometimes.
Vorcha in mass effect.
Koloss and steel inquisitors in Mistborn.
The Moonrats from Bowl of Souls.

 

[Phlap]

Imps from Dungeon Keeper. You can slap them almost to death and they'll keep obeying your every whim. You can even possess them if you so wish.

Good idea about the pics. Is very difficult to find specific picture of lesser known minions lie the Bison Troopers...

Necron Warriors.
Every human below the Emperor of Mankind

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

Who are the weakest, so I can at least be more specific with my list.
Like for example the Drones and Unggoy I put in my list.
