Very cool! I get visions of Charlton Heston when I look at the chimp figures,
but the dolphin is unique...

.. the thought occurs that this mob might make interesting 15mm alien
civilians, if you want to do a Babylon 5/Star Wars/etc type setting with
lots of oddball aliens. (bystanders/targets in a 15mm FMAS game, maybe)
Has anyone actually seen this set? They're listed as being larger than the
6mm/8mm Ogre infantry, but how much larger?

Figure nicely captures the image I get from the book "Startide Rising" by
David Brin.

It *is* part of a set of licensed "Uplift" figures -- they do seem to
have captured the source material quite well.

The Ogrethulhu figures average about 10mm in size.
