If you can find them, the plastic Imperial Dreadnoughts from GW's Space
Marine (Epic 40K precursor) aren't too bad, and even (vaguely) look like
VOTOMS suits since they don't look anything like the 28mm Imperial
Dreadnoughts.  

Unfortunately, they only came as part of the Space Marine sprues and
there weren't that many per package.  Maybe someone who has changed over
to the new pewter ones (which are completely different) might be willing
to let them go.
