Sure it's been seen. The player in Marathon *is* one. They look just like ordinary people (they were able to masquerade as human during the Marathon's trip).

The reason there were only 10 on the Marathon was that most of the battleroids had been recalled (and destroyed or put in stasis, I believe) after they turned on their human masters. I'm not sure we were told how many there were before. But there weren't supposed to be *any* on the Marathon; those 10 were stowaways, probably with their memories altered (since you don't seem to know you're a cyborg.)

Or maybe battleroids just aren't that impressive, when their opponents are wielding looted Jjaro (or other advanced alien culture) tech. The Marathon battle would have been very different, after all, if the Mjolnirs had had to face S'pht'kr instead of Pfhor. The Covenant seems to be a far worthier enemy than the Pfhor were (or will be).
