Does anyone make non-cartoonish 28mm Fallschirmjager?

Thanks! Some great options to explore here. The Garrison and RKX fellows look promising.

Like you, I find the exaggerated proportions of the Warlord Games mini's rather awful. Overly thick arms & legs and "Commando Comic" facial poses.

I am just about to order some RKX Heer minis from a local print shop who have a licence for their range and I should receive them before the end of the month.

 If you can wait a couple of weeks I will be able to post some comparison shots so you know what you're getting from them. I will be interested to see how the vehicles (Hetzer, Kettenkraftrad) scale with my existing stuff.

Also bear in mind that you can shrink / enlarge STL's by a %. So if these don't mix well with other ranges a bit of tweaking may make them more acceptable.

Oh nice. Looking forward to your review. My WWII project is a slow-moving affair.

There is a size comparison on the Offensive Miniatures site.

Judging from ther pic of the HMG set the designer has got the size of the ammo bandolier width far to wide and if its filled it deos not sit like that, jumped out at me because Ive just spent weeks trying to get that right on the 20mm ones Im designing and come to think of it the kneeling pose has its legs far to close together.

 Adventure Time? I couldn't find anything on them through Google.

A few years back, when I was looking around at different Fallschirmjager options, I came across a company called Fix Bayonets:

I couldn't find much about their size on the Internet, although I seem to recall finding out that they were sculpted by Ebob and I found one blog where they were used alongside the metal Warlord figures and possibly the Perry Fallschirmjager too.
It's also not clear if the business is on hiatus or not, but it might be worth pinging a message?
