Miniatures for a Star Trek game?

I'm looking for some appropriate miniatures I can use for a Star Trek game. They don't have to be specifically Star Trek miniatures, but need to look reasonably appropriate - so no stormtroopers or orc space marines!

Any ideas? I've looked on eBay under various "star trek miniatures" combinations and found a small Heroclix set with the TOS crew, but that's pretty much it. Ideally I don't want to pay a fortune for 20-year old collectable lead figures. I've seen various references to and photos of old minis sets for various Star Trek games, and people saying "X company used to produce some 30 years ago!", but they (a) are usually a *very* small range and (b) are expensive or hard to get hold of or (c) were 30 years ago.

10 XP to anyone who can help me!

First, I am assuming you mean miniatures of the crew and not the ships.
Second, FASA seems to be the only company ever to have made character miniatures outside of the recent heroclix line. Interestingly, they seem to have focused entirely on The Wrath of Khan.

Anyway, a list of model numbers can be found here: http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~tpope/sol/fasa/star-trek.html

Short of paying arms and legs, it doesn't look too promising, but I'll keep looking.

Yep, people not ships.

I don't mind if they're not Star Trek minis - any suitable generic sci-fi minis of people holding laser guns and not being clearly from Star Wars will suffice. Star Trek specific ones are just a bonus!

That being the case, you might want to look through Noble Knight Games list of miniatures. They seem to have quite the variety of in print and out of print minis. http://www.nobleknight.com/ViewManuf.asp_Q_CategoryID_E_5
