    I don't think so. mammets are automatons, i think the picture above are living creatures. That viking helmet leads me to believe they are dwarves from FF4. Or at least inspired by.

    EDIT: i couldnt find original sprite images, the best i could find is the ff4 remake version of the dwarves. I guess it could go either way. id like to think they are dwarves tho since antitower is likely underground.



    Maybe one of the NA community team can chime in lol...

    Check out the high resolution screen shot found at the gallery at this page. If you look at their knee joints (and their unnaturally shaped eyes) you can see these fellows are mechanical in nature. I think that's further evidence toward Mammets or at least a reimagining of Final Fantasy Dwarves.

    Hmm i'm not entirely sure. They don't look like the mammets currently in the game to me though, especially the eyes and the much thicker arms. I guess we have to wait till the 23rd to find out what they are. The image on the left with the viking hat really hit my nostalgia though Even if I'm wrong.

    Mammets in FFXIV come in all shapes in sizes. All of the humanoid minions (like Thancred, the GC leaders, Minion of light) are all Mammets. Even the Allagan used Mammets in their wars. It's more of a general purpose word like Robot.
