Do you mean the ships, or the figures?
Well, the ships are rather snail-like, and strongly inspired by the
organic
ships in the "Outlanders" manga/anime (by Johji Manabe). They also have
a
degree of Freudian (or Giger-esque?) symbolism, hence the joke in the
name....
The Phalon infantry are quite non-humanoid, apart from the fact that
they
are upright bipeds. Their limbs have an extra joint each, and their
heads
are reminiscent of the old War of the Worlds (George Pal movie version)
martians, a flattened shape with a single tri-lensed eye.
