From the models currently on the market, which is your favorite alien race? |
Mute Bystander | 05 Apr 2016 6:45 p.m. PST |
My favorites (Rauwoofs and Blarads) are OOP so, sadly, none. |
Mako11 | 05 Apr 2016 6:47 p.m. PST |
Mine haven't been produced in that scale yet, so I need to do a little arm-twisting with the manufacturer to convince him it's a good idea. |

Eldar and the Tau Empire. The former's mystical and the latter's technological. |

Sadly, both the Grenadier and Megaminiatures versions of K'kree are out of production. |
Cyrus the Great | 05 Apr 2016 7:23 p.m. PST |

Romulus if they existed. Also add in Star Gate Atlantis, if they existed |

I like the new Greys from Outlaw Miniatures. I have a ton of Drantakhs, cause I like them so well. Also Wul'kin from Erebus Studios. |

Toss betweem Quar and Drantakh. |

I like the Tau too. They are pretty cool looking, really get that Manga feel. They are useful for 40K but also for generic sic-fi stuff. I also really like the Tyranids. Cool looking models for the most part and the fluff is great, especially with the Genestealer cults. |

Quar, To'ok from Zombiesmith Goloth from studio minitures |
Insomniac | 05 Apr 2016 11:07 p.m. PST |
Mine would be the Grey Aliens from CP miniatures: link |
IanKHemm | 06 Apr 2016 1:58 a.m. PST |
Valkeeri from Hydra Miniatures. |
tnjrp | 06 Apr 2016 3:22 a.m. PST |
Not too hot and bothered about any of them, really. There are some random good ones here and there but rarely so many per type that they'd an army (or a crowd of civvies even) make, so you can't really get a sense of an entire species from the few examples you can get. |
Gunfreak | 06 Apr 2016 3:36 a.m. PST |
Humans. Because aren't we all a little alien to each other? |
Prince Rupert of the Rhine | 06 Apr 2016 4:44 a.m. PST |
C'tan from the first Necron Codex when they were b'dass before the next codex ruined them…. |
Wackmole9 | 06 Apr 2016 6:14 a.m. PST |
Arachnids from SST and Shadows from Babylon 5 |

Eldar, Grymn, Koralon, Spugs. |
Balthazar Marduk | 07 Apr 2016 2:08 a.m. PST |
I think the Skaugran are pretty cool… It's probably because they're a part of my upcoming line and I'm a shameless self promoter. |
Redmenace | 09 Apr 2016 3:55 p.m. PST |
I like my aliens as distinctly alien as possible so I'd say the old Grenadier, now Mirliton, Mi Go |
Covert Walrus | 09 Apr 2016 4:05 p.m. PST |
Practically any Khurasan aliens. |
rbmgl2814 | 13 Apr 2016 1:02 p.m. PST |
any idea when or if the Drantakhs will resurface? |

A lot of the above mentioned are great. Zombiesmith to'ok catch my fancy |
Capt Flash | 15 Apr 2016 6:09 a.m. PST |
Tyranids and Warzone's Pretorian Stalkers for me. |

The Shard from VOR: The Maelstrom. And yes, they are still on the market via Iron Wind Metals and Ral Partha Europe. |
Lion in the Stars | 02 May 2016 7:41 p.m. PST |
While the retail price is obscene, I still really like GW Tyranids, especially the big bugs. The plastic Carnifex (towering over a Rhino for real) almost got me to buy a whole damn 'Nid army back in the day. Quar are really cool (though I only have them in 15mm). Still have a lot of Tau, might trawl evilbay and see if I can find some newer stuff for cheap. Otherwise, I like Morats. Big, angry space apes. Relic Knights Noh Empire troops aren't bad, either. |
