While discussing the Gorn, the subject came up of how short the max height is in comparison to many of the NPC Gorn and even the TOS Gorn from "The Arena." I was reminded that my Nausicann is no where near as tall as some of the Nausicaan NPCs, and (Like the Gorn) seems to be restricted to human proportions. (Most of the Nausicaans in ST are much taller than the humans, many of the Nausicaan NPCs are as well.)
Also, the STO Nausicaans look like very poor imitations of the canon Nausicaans:
yes they do need some love, but with that kinfda face, i hope they carry a non see thru bag with em cause WOW!
But seriously some update would be nice, and the last few "exhibit" pics look awfule, eg: looks like a poor halloween mask you buy at wally world

The last few were non-speaking extras: "Bodyguards" Now we all know how low budged ST could be at times, so some of those masks probably were just solid slabs plastered onto an extra's face.
/signed - I'm not intimadating enough, make me taller!
As for the overhaul of the face, there's a bit of variation in the exhibits. One batch is from TNG where they're meant to be intimidating thugs, the other is from that which name must not be spoken, where they cast a Nausicaan in the victim role and naturally they ended up looking a lot more hu-mon.
I've no real opinion on whether it's necessary or not. The height is the most easily recognizable difference between STO and screen.
