I can't remember what they were called and much detail about them, but i remember getting these really random toys at KBtoys when i was young sometime between when i was 4-8 (1994-1998). They were like very little action figures of super heros(small enough to fit a couple in your hand and close a fist) who went in robot like things i think? For some reason I think they were Japanese/y like. I know this isn't much,but i feel like gaf will pull through. This shit has bugged me randomly like once a year.

I know they're not very robot-ish but they fit your other criteria.

or maybe Ro-Gun Robots?

kind of close. i also ran into robo force, and that seemed like it was it almost,but no. it had little dudes that came with a bigger robot. i thought the little guys had legs. i remember one of the things having a drill arm though.
 
It's important to note that KB didn't only stock the newest toys. OP remembers getting them in the early 90s, not necessarily seeing them advertised in the 90s.

The only japanese-like toy with little people that you can fit inside a closed fist & sit inside robots that I remember are the ZOIDS toys.

Also they may be knock-off toys too.

OMG! Star Com!!

I had the big shuttle-like spacecraft, the bad guys mini-spacecraft and tank.
The shuttle was full of neat features.

One of the best toy line ever owned.

Edit:
Even the "anime" was good.

Either I made up lies about the Boston Bomber or I fell for someone else's crap. Either way, I have absolutely no credibility and you should never pay any attention to anything I say, no matter what the context. Perm me if I claim to be an insider
Damnit, I just ordered a Zoid because of this thread.
