I'm looking for an Octopus/Squid Race or something similar to 2300ad's Pentapods to add variety to my Sci-Fi RPG game. Some thing with tentacles and looking sentient. :p

I know someone has a range of those. There was a write up in 5150 Illegal Aliens. I'll try to dig that book up and see which company it was.

DyeHard beat me to it. I was thinking of Black Hat's Cephalopods.

Thank you everyone. Plenty to choose from and I hadn't noticed any before. I guess Cephalopods are a naturally shy breed.

I thought the "All Quiet on the Martian Front" line had Martians that were Cephalopod like, but I can not seem to find them.

Oh, and GW spore mines. They're 28mm, but they are also aliens, so…

Stryderg:

Good find! Should be able to judge scale by the size of the base:
