Who Makes Good 15mm Or 18mm Stand-Ins For “Chigs”?

I’m talking about the aliens in the tv series Space: Above And Beyond.  Click on the link below to view a Flickr folder with several images:

The following is a playlist with the 23 episodes of the show:

Well Khurasan Miniatures had teased with Figures for both side sculpted, that was a few years ago.

Rebel Minis Earth Force would make for good Marines stand ins, http://www.rebelminis.com/eafomain.html

I think Brigade Model's Yenpalo would work for "Chigs" http://www.brigademodels.co.uk/15mmSF/Yenpalo.html
Just remember "If the Enemy is in range, so are YOU!

Yeah, I gave up on Khurasan’s promises long ago.

As for the Yanpalo, I guess I hadn’t considered them before.  Thanks!

Has anyone ever given the 18-20mm tall Yandrassi (Tavshar?) a look, for potential Chigs?  Seen here in the center:

They have the height, and the weapons look alien enough.  Thoughts?

The Khurasan 'Not-Chigs' won't be making it into production reputedly due to TM issues.

Sadly nothing comes to mind that resembles the Chigs to my mind.

Interesting that it should make him hesitate now and not with previous projects of his.
