Found it! It was Mission Omega on the ZX Spectrum / C64:

Hello all.
I have vague memories of a game from the ZX Spectrum or Atari era. Graphics were wire-frame, and the game-play revolved around constructing a team of modular robots to escape a facility.
Enemies were other robots that you can take parts from once defeated, and if you strayed out of bounds too far you were beset by nigh-indestructible robots that looked like manic teddy bears.
I can't remember anything more as I don't think myself and the friend who owned the game got particularly far. Thank you for any help in finding this!
