I have miscellaneous SF figures:Critter Commando Frogs, Necrons, Warzone Dark Legion. Could you make crews from these in ways that make sense in game and are fun? Or would you not get enough variety, and have to ignore difference between a Necron soldier and a Frog soldier?

Absolutely. I have some "space Frogs" and Space Goats that are in a crew.

If a a Necron soldier and a Frog soldier were of the same class, they would be the same stats wise. You would not get an eternal plasma cannon soldier that gets back up, or a super jumping commando. You can fudge this a bit (using various classes) and have a Space Marine using the power-armored class. There's an infected soldier type in the new book that might work for Legion kinda.

So, A Necron, a Frog soldier and a Space Marine walk into a bar…

Different biologies create logistical and engineering issues. They're not insurmountable, but they are issues. Will Species X be able to use the same rifle as Species Y? How much overlap can there be in their diets? etc.
