Whoa, man, tune down the saturation.
Make it higher than what you had but lower than what you have.
I'm not fond of the white outline.

step back and take a much closer look at Doppleganger and Helm's wonderful edits. Notice the good contrast, color conservation, and color choice. Especially note the desaturated colors. Saturation can look good in a few select situations, but for the most part it's really hard on the eyes. Right now yours looks a bit blob-ish. Up the contrast and make good use of your darker colors to help define the robot more.

Lol im sorry, but immediately when I saw your updated version I seriously said "EW" out loud.  that update was more of a downgrade.  your older version was better  but work on your contrast and highlights.  also, your far shoulder doesnt go back as far as it should, theres a pixel between the shoulder thing (the gray piece) and the head which should be filled with gray.  also, looking at helms, you'll notice how little colors he used compared to yours, you can do a lot of a small palette and contrast, good luck.
