I am looking for some alien bugs that will work well for 6mm. Any manufactures you would recommend. Preferably ones that ship to the US for not too much. |

In the USA, try Onslaught link … The Classic range, Denizens & Mercenaries + Xemonites. And Microworld Kreen link . Microworld carries some of DRM Skyth which are great bugs ! link CinC/PFC has the SEM line. These guys/"robots" make good Bugs – link They have many other neat aliens but not bugs if that is all you are looking for … GZG and DRM … but both are in the UK. But there maybe a US distributor ?

No GZG distributor in the states. Just order direct from Jon. Faster than the speed of light and never a problem. Good miniatures! |

You might consider plastic ants. Nothing can beat a real bug! link |

No GZG distributor in the states. Yes, that is the rub. The postage to the USA from the UK can be pretty costly. I'd like it make a small order from HLS/EW. But the postage does not make it worthwhile. I'd end up paying almost x2 the cost of the models when post is included … |

Bashy beat me to it. For dirt cheap, go look for plastic bugs at the party store or in toys or party favors in the big box store. |

I have ordered from Jon at GZG multiple times. Postage is not terrible unless you plan on ordering a load of stuff. Plus the pound still is fairly low. Those Gzg bugs are nice! I own 150 of them. Painted up like Arachnids. Used Micro machine/Action Fleet Tankers and a Brain bug. I do SST in 6mm. Very cool. Thanks. |

Don't forget Khurasan's Space Demons although website is on maintenance halt at the moment. |

Pendraken has a 10mm bug range, I guess they could work jsut as well for bigger critters in 6mm. |

I used some Pendraken 10mm Bugs for Big 'nids … [URL=http://s48.photobucket.com/user/Legion4/media/Nids_Bugs/PIC084844.jpg.html]

Can second (third? Fourth?) the suggestion for dollar store bugs, though they will be rather giant in 6mm. You can often find lizards and frogs too. |
