for one they don't really make sense, humans have developed specifically for tasks we don't really need anymore (like throwing far and hard, outrunning prey by having more stamina, etc.) so creating robots that are tailored for actual relevant tasks just has a higher priority.

additionally the uncanny valley effect sets the bar for a humanoid robot that's accepted by society quite high

the only real market would be for super rich people that don't mind buying a ridiculously overprized robot that's only real advantage is that it can use tools made for humans, they won't be cheap even mass produced because they're way too complicated
