Hello all,
I wondered if you could help – I'm looking for 25/28mm scale Triffid miniatures (or the best possible proxies!).
I'm aware that a few companies (Alternative of Armies, HLBS, QRF) make 15mm versions, but I've not had much luck finding larger versions.
Any help would be much appreciated!

You could take a hot glue stick. heat the middle over a heat source and stretch it a bit. Then hot glue some strips of foil (bent in a wavy manner) to make the head.
Hot glue to a base and use either hot glue or rolls of putty for the legs/roots. Paint in a scary manner.

HLBS used to do 28mm versions – got a few myself.

How tall would the Triffids need to be for gaming with 28mm human figures?

And what body style? Stumpy "legs" or the more leafy/starfish ones?
