This idea is pretty cool and I certainly like the idea of having a fifth alloy. It just seems like it would make more sense than four for some reason. Probably partially because there's five on screen at a time anyway.
I'm gonna be honest, it looks really good. Personally I think it should have been another normal color rather than black since the others are colored. Going off of green being a secondary color among primaries, it probably be best to use purple or orange. Since you're going for a more masculine look though, orange may be better. That's just my thoughts on that.
As for the model itself, I think that there should be some highlights at least on the legs if not the feet since all of the other alloys have them on at least the legs. I noticed the more unrealistic alloys had them on the feet as well as the legs while the wireframed based variants had them on only their legs. Personally I think it would look best if it had highlights on its feet since the legs don't seem quite long enough in relation to the size of the foot to not have them.
The only other thing I can think of is maybe doing something different with the hands like the yellow alloy. They arms just look very similar to the red and blue alloys and while I noticed you used a diamond instead of a pyramid for the arms, I think you could maybe do something else too. Making the hands or part of the arms a little more unique would fix this. They certainly don't look bad as they are though.
