You have my sympathies! I've been dealing with USCIS (formerly BCIS, formerly
INS) for a couple of years now, so I know what you've been going through.
Luckily I had my green card interview about a year
sooner than expected, though I've been waiting for the card and/or
the letter stating that I'll eventually get it for about 2 months now.

So far, Phalons only come in 25mm and 15mm. There are no vehicles in 15mm,
though I have some ideas about that and bought a bunch of wooden half eggs
from Michael's to, someday, use for Phalon vehicles.

We're going to be scaling up some of Jeremey's bugs to 15mm scale for a demo'
game next year and using GZG Phalons as infantry to accompany them. Exactly
which ones we do is still TBD, the range is too large
(30+) for us to do them all in 15mm but we should be starting with
half-a-dozen representative models.

If you like  :-)

We've already sketched out roughly what we need (one of the two-legged
walker bugs, one tank bug, one APC bug, one or two flyer bugs, one artillery
bug) but I'll listen to suggestions

Now that is a line I could get my teeth in to... Though the bugs in
their current size make an intresting army/race set themselves in 15mm.

One of the walker *tank* bugs with a "scorpion-tail" gun mounts would be

preferred to one of the "tank slugs"

(...which reminds me that I still haven't completely finished the Rag
review of the sample bug walkers I got at Bifrost 2003 - originally I
had intended to paint them before doing the review, but I fear that I might
have to change that plan sometime soon... :-( Sorry 'bout that, Tony!)

It'd be nice if you made the surface of these 15mm Cimexians a bit more
uneven than it is on the 6mm ones though - ie., closer to GZG's 25mm
Phalon
vehicles in texture ;-)

Not everything should be voted on else the men might not jump out of the

airplane...

LOL!
