How big is he?	I remember the GRW minis as being somewhat...hefty.  The
Goatsuckers are
supposed to be relatively small, about the size of a large dog, but Mr.
Skin Walker might make
an excellent Human/Chupacabra crossbreed of some sort.	Oh, those wacky
Aliens and their 
equally wacky probes....

I think that, from this day forward, I'll be putting "Chupacabraista" on
my resume.  That's too good
a word not to use.

Next up is to find some good C.H.U.D. minis....

("Carnivorous Humanoid Ungerground Dwellers", from the awful movie of
the same name.
Basically degenerate subterrainian cannibals.  Spice up the sewer
battles a bit, eh?)
