Looking to make generic robots, either tracked like the Robot in the Lost in Space movie, or bipedal like the ones in I, Robot.

I'm fine with the Necron bodies, does anyone make generic, alternate heads for Necrons?

And tracked units, do any Bitz makers do those that would be fine for a 28mm robot?

There are some decent robot models out there, but most either have the terminator look to them, or the retro look.

Sanguinary Guard's death mask heads would make for some decent Robot Maria look alikes/Spikey 3POs

Ramshackle Games makes some fun, modular bots. Bit bigger, more crisis suit range but lots of fun options. Many regular infantry sized guys there that could be robots as well.

Bingo! They have really expanded their range since the last time I looked! Found the heads I wanted.

Now I just need small 28mm tracked units....

Check out Mantic's Dreadball range, there is a slick futuristic robot team and a scrapyard robot tream that is just a bag of bitz.
