Looks like one of the Gundam Sentinel types. The not Gundam itself side backup robos that helped it out. Not the Zakus. The ones that usually supported the Guntanks.

Patlabors only had one ear thing. But their designs were also derived from the Sentinel types of original Gundam.

The Patlabor v2 advanced version had the dual ear things, but they were larger and rounder and more like full curved bunny ears, and less like the flat side panel ones the normal Patlabors had like Alphonse.

The star on the torso though, and the side shield bits I see what you mean, but this one seems to suggest a kind of laser shield or panel open around shield, whereas Patlabors had the riot arm guard small shield on one arm.
