* In ''[[Warhammer 4000040,000]]'' the Eldar straddle the line between this and [[Humanoid Aliens]]. They are thin, graceful, pointy-eared ([[Our Elves Are Different|Elf]] [[Expy|expies]] [[In Space]]!), but their body structure is much more lithe and spindly.
** The in-universe setting book Xenology references this; while the Eldar and Tau, and to a lesser extent the Orks, look outwardly like slightly modified humans inside the races are nothing alike. The Tech-Priest doing the dissections is extremely confused by this, especially since his other subjects aren't remotely humanoid.
* ''Space [[Munchkin]] the RPG'' parodies this trope with the "Bumpy Headed Alien" racial choice. You choose, among other things, your facial bumps, the [[Planet of Hats|concept your entire species is devoted to]], and the one aspect of human culture your species doesn't understand ("we do not have a word for this thing you call 'hygiene'")
