This is one I have found (1/48 scale) that will go great with 28mm greys and other aliens:

It is quite cool. If only I could find it in the UK.

Polar Lights has a couple. The Invaders, Land of the Giants and Voyage to the bottom of the Sea kits are good starters

Here is a nice paper model of a UFO

I think this one would be good, too, with a little kitbashing.

I meant to post this also:

A paper model of the UFO from Gary Anderson's 1970 show "U.F.O."

The link would be nice huh?

Great topic — I just scratchbuilt a 28mm UFO this weekend for gaming, and it is a pieplate turned upside-down, compared to these examples. I'm going to start upgrading to the examples from this thread immediately!

This is a HOT dropship that was originally made for CAV but would work great for 28/30mm. It even has working doors. Its made entirely from foam core and includes pdfs of skins to print so you can cover it. The site has a very nice guide also.

Oh did I say it was for FREE!

There's this retro looking one from Ground Zero Games

This is my favourite right now, but it's only a one thing ship:

I've built a few of the one man transport that rollagain linked to, but I'm going to go with the first link from Eclectic Wave, scaled up about twice as big. That makes a good-sized scouting saucer.

I think I've seen that Roswell one on the Hannants website in the UK

£15.00 GBP though :( Or $11 USD from the US. Even with whatever postage they decide to add it's probably worth ordering from the US.

Javelin98,

That Nemesis Scorpion is definitely getting on my shopping list! Thanks.

Here's another site for UFO type spacecraft:

Always happy to help!

Those look nice – I especially like the Roswell and Scorpion, they might have come from the same design bureau…

Now, of course, I'm going to need to assemble a Grey strike team, darnit…Griffin minis, maybe some Copplestones…back 'em up with Hunter Aliens and the Grey Battlesuit…

Can you say 'X-Com'? I knew you could! grin

Scaled up the Gary Pileggi "UFO in a Carpark" (Eclectic Wave's first link) and its a beauty. I think my 28mm WW2 forces are going to be fighting aliens now…and my 15mm zombie hunters will discover where the zombie virus comes from.

Cpt Arexu20 Nov 2005 12:16 p.m. PST

Doh! That's Gary Pilsworth, not Pileggi.

Alternate source for Greys?

Has there been a change with the Griffin Greys? I seem to recall that people on TMP lists were complaining that they had ordered them they had never gotten them and could not get a response from the company. Has anyone ordered them recently and gotten them>
