*Though these guys are VERY secret and they only appear in two levels: when you jump into the "abyss" part of Un-Bearable and the purple gem path of Bee-Having. They are dressed as poachers/hunters and shoot this weird looking gun/bazooka at you. These guys are VERY hard to take down, especially when combined with the "Armourdillo."

The Lab Assistants were first seen in the introduction of Crash Bandicoot holding Tawna captive. They don't appear until Cortex's Island where two Lab Assistants were seen in the level Slippery Climb throwing potions at Crash.They are in the unused/hidden level stormy Ascent doing the same thing. They're later seen in the last level The Lab where a new kind of them were seen sparkling electricity, suspecting that they are not human but robotic.
Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back
These guys returned in the sequel, this time covering a far more wider range of jobs, such as working in the sewer stages, handling bars made of steel crates or even using annoying (and deadly) shields against the hero while in Cortex's space station. They are seen in tubes in the Tiny Tiger boss fight.
This was the game showing the highest number of jobs for the Assistants, depending on the time they are located in. How they just all look the same is then explained as soon as the sixth world is unlocked and entered, as said above: the Warp Room in fact contains a real factory in which they, as the robots they actually are, are first built and then sent into a stage just in order to (at least) try to stop Crash Bandicoot, Coco Bandicoot, Pura, and Aku Aku once again. This production was probably stopped after Crash,Coco,Pura,and Aku Aku destroyed the time twister thus,ruining Cortex's plans.
Post-Naughty Dog era
After Naughty Dog, the robots seemed to have more and more appearances, such as various ones seen in The Wrath Of Cortex (with the "Afro Assistant" even being shown in the game's credits), as well as many ones appearing in the first two Vicarious Visions GBA titles.

Jobs for Lab assistants in Crash Bandicoot 3: Warped
Dressing as a wizard and casting spells to turn you into a... frog???
Dressing as a knight and slicing you in half with their big long pointy lance.
Pulling Crash underwater as some sort of ghost?
Race in cars against Crash.
Slicing up Crash's pants to reveal his boxers.
Hovering around in an attempt to abduct Crash.
Jumping around in their sarcophagus and either squishing Crash, or if you break it, they will "hug" Crash to death as a mummy.
Same as before, except their sarcophagus is half the size and covered with spikes, and the top half of the "mummified" lab assiant can be seen holding onto his sarcophagus. These are only seen in the "Tomb Raider" level, and maybe "Bug Lite."
Occupy a little rowboat in Coco's levels, and if you hit their boat, you break not only your ski but their boat as well. As revenge, they grab their paddle and smash your head so hard you go flying underwater. Weeeeeeeeeeeeeee...
Also in Coco's levels, they sit up in a mast located randomly in the water, and swing an achor at you in a wide circle. There is no need to explain what happens if you hit their anchor.
In Coco's tiger levels, they act as Chinamen/Oriental Men and seem to just lift weights, and not attack you. They serve as obstacles only, so don't kill them. Be nice :)
Yet again in Coco's tiger levels, they are dressed as the same, excpet they run around and carry baskets of what looks like it is filled blueberries. These guys are a lot harder to avoid.
AGAIN with Coco's levels, but these guys just hold a little ramp open which if you hit you fly to the top of a little structure, which can give you a bit of a shortcut if you are going for trials.
In the Arabic levles, these guys stand still and throw swords at you for no apparent reason. Why would you do that, Crash isn't target practise?
In the Arabic levels, they dress up as genies and float around on flying carpets, That's it. That's all they do.
Have hideously deformed/mutated into two headed giants, which hold clubs in their two hands. Though they can't be killed, they can be knocked over and jumped on their big fat stomachs, as part of a victory dance/teabag. If they hit you, they actually "break" the fourth wall. It is quite funny when they do that, so try it yourself if you don't know what it means.
They have been transformed into frogs. If you hit them they kiss you and turn into a beautiful prince. Awwwwwwww...That also means you get turned into a frog. Lol.

The fact that there are so many variants of Lab Assistants makes them similar to Nintendo's Shy Guys, which also have the most variants of Nintendo enemies.
There was supposed to be a "Prehistoric" Lab Assistant riding the Triceratops in Warped, but it was later scrapped.
In the animated series Super Duper Sumos, The character of Billy Swift resembles a dark version of the Assistants.
Although they were revealed to be androids in Warped, a hint was given out in the two levels of Crash Bandicoot 2, Rock It and Pack Attack, as there was a bit of the assistant's face replaced with metal.
The only time BS didn't resemble the Lab Assistants was when he does an evil laugh in the Super Duper Sumos episode That Was Zen, This is Tao".
Lab Assistants cannot reproduce. This fan theory is further proven by the fact that all lab assistants are male.
