Remembering Marx WOW Figures

If you were a kid in the 1960s who loved history and toy soldiers, you probably had a WOW figure!

Hi Guys I've posted some photos of some WIP on the 14th Brooklyn in 28mm for LONGSTREET. [URL=http://s293.photobucket.com/user/trailape/media/Longstreet/photo2_zps29fa6044.jpg.html] [/URL] My version of the 14th Brooklyn is made up of PERRY MINIATURES (Coded ACW64 and 65)because at the time I was unaware of any manufacturer that made this specific Regiment. I've since discovered SASH AND SABER (S&S) and FORGOTTEN AND GLORIOUS (FG MiniZ) do in fact produce this Regiment in 28mm metal. So, I purchased a Regimental pack from FG MiniZ on a preorder deal they were running, (they had not actually produced them but were in the process of doing so at the time). NOW I have the 14th Brooklyn in both PERRY and FG MiniZ form, although I have not painted the FG Miniz version yet. Anyway, you can see the WIP on the PERRYs and also compare them to the Forgotten and Glorious (FG MiniZ) version. link [URL=http://s293.photobucket.com/user/trailape/media/Longstreet/FG3_zps779fcb0a.jpg.html] [/URL] The PERRYs were painted by FERNANDO ENTERPRISE Cheers Scott trailape.blogspot.com.au

It seems a lot of new ACW is being produced in the right shoulder shift pose….. I have enough units in RSS. I do like a firing line with fixed bayonets, or shoulder arms pose. If manufactures are interested in making a `line` of ACW they should think of other poses than RSS. A bit of grass on the bases would break the brown look up a bit….just a thought

Hi HammerHead What part of: "I have not finish them yet. I still need to dry brush the bases, add flock and grass tuffs and obviously I need to add both National and Regimental Flags" did I miss? I'm doing that at this moment actually. I actually like the RSS pose for my advancing units. Firing lines are also good. Cheers
