I believe I have found 2 possible things that could have inspired the design of the Starmen from the Mother/Earthbound series.
1. The most obvious, the space men from the 1950's film "The Day the Earth Stood Still"

2. A bit more obscure, this mysterious photo has been around since the 50's too and features a spaceman similar to the Starman.

I personally think number 1 is more likley, any thoughts?
