I'd like to see a generic pack of snipers, providing a selection of all the
varieties of sniping weapons. Can be usuable for most armies, just like the
command figures, as they can be in simple fatigues and camo.

I'd also like some new Kra'Vak. The current ones are now seriously undersized
in comparison with the more recent additions to the 15mm
range.  It would be great if the present Kra'Vak could be re-defined as
Juves, and a packet or two of new and slightly larger sculpts produced to
represent fully matured warriors. Maybe one pack similar to the usual squad
packs, and another pack with sniper, higher command elements, Sia'Na.

  Also - some 15mm Bugs would be really really cool!

As far as vehicles go, I already suggested a mortar carrier. Would be nice to
see some APC variants along the lines of an M113 ACAV or a WW2 Hanomag. As the
new vehicles are metal casts, there's a lot more opportunity for open
compartment vehicles than resin permits, and these would be neat. A FAV and
some soft transport would be pretty useful too. Especially if the transport
stuff could be modular enough to allow some variation in cabs and bodies.

Have you seen Brigade's 15mm bug series? Unless you're looking for a different
type of bug, that is.

Yeah, I know the Brigade ones. Looking for some Starship troopers style bugs
for 15mm...

> Hi Indy,

I may be stating the obvious, but have you looked at GZG codes EM-BUG,
SGV 04 and 05? While they are listed under the 25mm Star Grunt Alien section,
they do look like the bugs from the movie and I think are more in scale with
15mm than 25mm. If I recall, they are maybe 30mm tall when assembled. You can
see pictures by downloading the 2002 catalog and looking at the pictures on
the bottom of page 18.
