This Kickstarter is for Alien inspired gaming miniatures as STL files to print on a resin printer.
There is a very good selection of film inspired miniatures plus many others which would expand from the films to make interesting games.
The All in One backer pledge is Euro 45, which appears to be excellent value.

To be honest, I backed the Kickstarter almost solely for this:

They don't have other Space Goofballs though.

Thank you for admitting that - now I dont feel so guilty for doing the exact same thing...

Would these (not the vehicles) print ok on a resin 3D printer? These are lovely models.

I think they are designed to print on a resin printer.
I have a Photon Mono and am considering backing the Kickstarter to print the figures.

They have the Dropship at the 60000 pound mark. They are at 55000 as of now. A few days left to go. I'm also on his Patreon. I'm all in!
Thanks

I bought the full All in One - Alien Mother package, for Euro 45.00.
With the stretch goals, that is more than 150 STL files for Humans, Aliens, Vehicles, Drop-ships and Terrain.
Last week, the first files were released - I guess about 80% is now available.
I have printed 25 human figures, Ripley in the Loader and small items like the Sentry Guns. The quality is amazing.

The test piece in the middle is there to verify printing quality.
The female pilot is 36mm tall, so the scale provided is about 1/48.
Of course, with 3D printing, you can easily scale up or down as desired.

Aliens vs Humans Kickstarter finished on October 11th and the 90% of the STL files have already been fulfilled.
I have been printing for about two weeks and have already painted quire a few of them.
The detail is amazing. The humans are about 37mm tall so 1/48 scale.
These are all printed on a Photon Mono.
Most are standard resin but the Aliens with spikes and humans with thin weapons are printed in Anycubic Tough Resin.
All given simple quick paint jobs. Black Gesso, drybrushed white for humans and silver for the aliens.
Simple block colours with Citadel washes to add shade.

Any idea how these scale with the Prodos 32mm models (specifically, the multi-part marines)? It looks to me that the guns are larger in comparison to the body compared to the Prodos models but I have not physically handled these ones.

Sorry, I have some very old metal figures from Leading Edge Games (launched 1991).
As they are STL files, you can change the sizes easily.
