So, I was hoping we could start a thread to talk about how/where we could get some alternate models.
I feel like Old Glory and similar manufacturers can cover some of the British and American troop types, but it gets bit harder when you go to the Martian side of the field. They had a bit of a distinctive look about them, that I really liked.
Anyway, I am looking for alternative minis for the following items that I always wanted to add to my Martian force:
1. Harvesters 2. Lobotons- Slicers and Blasters will work (I would also love some 28mm ones too!) 3. Sniper Drones
So, what do you guys think? Any suggestions?

Good call! I was not seeing the drone I was looking for.
I thought I had seen Precinct Omega had painted a cool alternate Sniper drone on Instagram, but darned if I can find it or the maker again!

They could work, as sources of parts, for conversions I think.

Never forget: The models are really just indicators for location of the tripods. Under AQMF, The precise model is NOT required so long as a "Counts As" agreement exists between the players. This tremendously expands the possibilities for play as opposed to the rigid, dogmatic Games Workshop requirement for exact models.
Whatever is agreed between players promotes gaming. Time wasted in obsessing over the exact model is lost from gaming. If you like given model, build it and use it, with the agreement of the opponent.
GAME ON!!

Agree 100%!
Hence, why I want some alternatives to put into my force!
