I suppose so given most had those tall cylindrical hats or bearskins but others had stuff like a bonnet, etc. I can see that.

Still find it an odd thing to work with because of the aspect of measuring to the eye height, but your point does have validity.

Eye level was because of Napoleonic miniatures where measuring to top of head was ... approximation.

Now, they have yoda heads under their armour, so I just made sure to order individuals that had helmets on. I think I might have ordered one or two with helmets off with the plan to 're-head' them with human heads. I was thinking of building one with a turban (Zhodani Noble maybe?).

They are very close to old CT Alien Module 1 Zhodani Battle Dress.

These figs are 'true 25mm' so not 28mm, not epic 28mm, not 30mm, etc. Of course, scale is a always a challenge - some places reckon it from boot bottoms to top of head (or differently, top of hat) and some reckon it to eye level (for reasons I do not fathom). Anyway, they fit well with the 25mm figure lines from GZG. They would be very underscale to anything from Games Orcshop.
