Please let those formations be true... The +1 BS/Ignores Cover would instantly shift the meta, and make this Codex Top-Tier. Allied Skitarii would become exponentially better then their already decent showing, thanks to the all but assured Lumingen all over their preferred targets.

And those Robots gaining said +1BS and Ignores Cover will usually be fielding 36" AP3 weapons, and getting 6 or 9 shots each...
They basically melt bike-squads at will, and if they don't... well those models just got their cover-save debuffed for anyone else.
Crazy.

One could cut the whole head off and replace it with one of the Land Raider targeting thingies on top of the las cannons (of course slightly converted for a more Mechanicus feeling design language). Or is there supposed to be somebody inside who needs a window to look through?

No cutting required! As we can see on the sprues, the heads are separate from the torso. I presume this will leave some sort of cavity, which may either be useful or a burden depending on what way you wish to convert it.

Not a big fan of old dome-head (though some of the 'shops are hilarious).
But the rest of the Mechanicus stuff is awesome. It's going to be really hard to not splurge on some to convert. I promised myself no more bits/models purchases, until I use the ones I have to finish my Marines/Corsairs/Orks/Tau.

I think this defiler bit could work well for an alternate head: http://www.bitsandkits.co.uk/images/623455415762.jpg

You can never beat your first time. The second generation is shinier, stronger, faster and superior in every regard save one, and it's an unfair criticism to level, but it simply can't be as original. - Andy Chambers, on the evolution of Games Workshop games

NZD$139, so stop your whining 
For 2 dreadnought-sized bots and a techpriest, I was actually expecting a higher price. With a little conversion (including a head swap), these could make nice counts-as dreadnoughts too. Or looted ork dredds...hmm...
Like others, I'm surprised and relieved that the head is separate - maybe FW will produce alt heads? I can definitely see some third-party resin manufacturers producing something compatible, as the head's the only real aesthetic design flaw, judging by most comments.
