They are really cute, aren't they?

If they were either 1) 7-8 feel talish or 2) 7-8" tallish in scale - they'd be prefect for Chingers from Bill The Galactic Hero.

I like the Sligg, but I think he's a bit too cute. Like a Scooby-Doo alien, or something.

What would rule would be sprues of sligg arms and legs and alternate heads so we could give him odd-numbered limbs and a huge dino-crest or something.

You know, they could do as good aliens for an idea I had a while back about doing XCOM with miniatures.

I'm not so sure I'd want to get hit by a missile with a "dog brain" AI.

Could someone let us know if that's a one piece model, or if the gun/hands/arms etc. are separate? You'd go a long way in transmitting your enthusiasm for these guys into sales for Reaper.

the current Sligg warrior model is a one-piece.

After reading this I had to get one. I did and I like it! I will have more, my army of sliggs will conquer the universe in the name of reptilian cuteness. We shall revel in our non mammalian, adoreable superiority ... oops sorry ... Well I picked up the Candy Anime Heroine at the same time, also a cute model. The Chronoscope line is great, keep it up!

I'd also like to add my voice for more Sligg - maybe a pack of three bodies with seperate arms and heads would suffice since it would offer a lot of variety.

Rrr... I dunno. I think "cute" is something which could be enhanced or utterly erased, depending upon the paint job.

That being said, I wouldn't mind seeing more of the little buggers, in different poses.
