Yarp, there's definitely some good space opera stuff in the Cobalt 1 line! The aliens are great!

I think they would work great in any space opera setting.

One of the hardest things about find Space Opera figs is that there so spread out though various manufacturer and miniatures lines, some others just require some GS work, but that might not be an option for some.   

I found some Savage World RPG: Deadlands Hell on Earth: figures from the kickstarter: that need to trimmed and altered but they are great figs one modified:

There's a fair few bits in the Dreadball range I like the look of - easy to add pistols too as well.

You've missed Akula's Galactic Armies range...






Quite a few more available. Here's his thread about them:

These are now owned by Hasslefree, but I'm not sure they're on their site yet.

Jesus, I did miss those, they're amazing.

I've just started work on the Crooked Dice Time Lift Security, they'll be painted so they work as colonial/station/city security, plus possibly armed guard for a diplomat type person.

I also bought the Sam Slade mini from Foundry as a Bounty Hunter/Rogue type bloke but he's MASSIVE so might need to rethink that bit.
