This is the first time Iv seen anything like these, any ideas?
For now they don't seem to be doing much but as my plants are starting to pre flower, I am starting to worry...

Help would be really appreciated if you have encountered these buggers before.

No, but I think it is called a shield/stink bug. There are some in Australia that look very much like the one in the picture. It appears to be in the immature nymph phase.
