The Blue Moon beast races (Twanax, Vleta, Zennox) are on the bigger side of 15mm. Almost 20mm. There have been a lot more releases since that line came out. Anyone have any suggestions on bigger races/figs that might work as human sized 20mm? |

Highlander studios' Space Pals are oversized. I haven't measured but I'd guess at least 20mm to the top of the head. Which unfortunately means that these link will be oversized too. I'll probably get a few anyway… |

The highlander Space Pal figs are more like 18mm they dont match up well with 20mms Other ideas:
GZG – Ix and Phalon are very big, great for 20mm, all of their drones
Khurasan – power armour humans and extra-dimensional aliens (forgot their names) For large 15mm vehicles
Old Crow vehicles – most can be used
Critical mass games – vehicles
Ainsty – the slammers tanks are huge, even for 20mm
Khurasan – the 'not aliens' APC and the grav tank are big |

If it's SciFi how can you even tell? Are we ta assume all alien races conveniently come in the 6' size? |

I have a bunch of the Halo Micro Ops stuff…always on the lookout for more when they go on clearance. I don't mind shorter aliens. 3 foot tall aliens are generally not my bag though…not for wargames…unless they are xenos and all toothy/spiny. I love the Critical Mass stuff :) It is huge indeed. Thanks for the tips! |

Ainsty – the slammers tanks are huge, even for 20mm They are meant to be 11 metres long and are – in (the almost universally accepted world of 15mm not being a scale as such) 1/100th – spot on. Remember a 70 tonne Challenger II (hull) is almost 8.5m long. 170 tonne blower tanks are just meant to be bigger John T |
