Are they just humanoid-shaped, or do they look like obviously robotic humanoids?
You could try the stats for the Akiyama, the Otomo, and the Manservant-3 on pages 120 and 121 of Arsenal.  You would probably have to modify them a bit, though.

Are the robots mooks or panic inducing harbingers of pain and suffering?  If the former, just use some mook stats of the appropriate professional rating and call them robots.  If it is more of the later, there are rules for full brain-in-a-jar cyborgs in augmentation and for cyberzombies (creatures with negative essence that are still walking and talking) in . . . well I am alot of help, its in one of the books under a chapter called "Cybermancy".  Imagine a person with 12 points of delta grade 'ware and a whole host of personality problems, will all locations replaced by custom cyberlimbs.  Or use stats for some of the combat drones that exist, like the doberman.

What Baronspam said.

If it's just a thematic goon-killing spree, then just use the stats for any other goon in the book as appropriate and change the description accordingly:

Eg a basic Mercenary with SMG becomes:
- Humanoid body of chrome and steel with an turret-mounted SMG and Sensor-suite where the head would normally rest. With a robotic *Whirrrrrr* the turret scans the room and locks onto you with a laser pointer.
*roll initiative*
