15mm is a great scale for sci-fi.  There are so many 
items that you could use: HO scale models, especially
Roco Minitanks, Heavy Gears, 25mm monster miniatures
for giant alien creatures, Exo-Squad Robotech toys....

Brookhurst Hobbies in California distributes Peter Pig, and
Outland Games in Ohio has Freikorps minis. The Freikorps
figures that I have look like Colonial Marines and Aliens, but 
they are a bit chunky.	I would be very interested in 15mm's 
from GZG...

Have you played Armored Core?  (sorry, off-topic...)

You might also want to try http://www.hobbyweb.com and
look under Wave or Sci-Fi.  Last time I checked they were around
$8 each.
