Just to get the ball rolling I'll offer up some alien types I'd like to see more of in 28mm:

1) Non-humanoid species such as:

2) Alien civilians, such as:

3) Some good Felines, like Khurasan's 15mm Felids:

And finally,
4) Everything Khurasan does in 15mm sci fi!

Well, they are all 28mm figures: they're just small critters.

Why do we think that all aliens have to be 1.7m tall? Except – for years – that's what we've had from Hollywood, courtesy of chaps dressed in rubber suits.

So, unless there was a specific story led need to have human sized aliens, then – on the basis that I'd use any of those in a 28mm games as 3ft tall aliens* – none of the above!

But – having said that – if you want hman sized figures, all of those are just dandy.

* and – conversely – am happy to use 28mm 'scale' figures as big aliens in 15mm games
