Hello, guys been facing this problem. Is there even an option to remove the materials from list ?

    Those are in a UVW Unwrap modifier on one of your meshes. Collapse the modifier stack and those go away. 

    It's best to use Collapse To on Unwraps right after using them, because they're dependent on the vertex count coming up the stack.

    Kind of fragile.

    If you add/remove verts below it, it will toss away any edits you did. Just FYI.

    Thanks! But there was no UV Unwrap on. Weird thing.

    With the object selected that has the material assigned that you want to remove type $.mat=null into the listener.
