I picked up a bunch of these from Ral Partha's discount boxes at GenCon
a couple of years ago, hoping to use them for StarGrunt, and it seems to
me that none of them are designed for the "realistic" science-fiction
look. Some of the figures are carrying rifles and wearing stylized 
spacesuits (sort of a Frank Kelly Freas design), but some of them are
wearing cloaks and carrying what looks like a powered spear.

Keep in mind that these were designed by Bryan Ansell in 1980 or 1981
(one
of the people who built Games Workshop during the 1980s) -- what you're
seeing are the precursors to the Citadel Miniatures designs.
