Remembering Marx WOW Figures

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

While I am moving my "regiments' project to 15mm I have not completely forsaken 25mm. But here's my dilemma, I need firing line figures without backpacks. Almost everyone's option includes some with packs and I really don't want to buy 8 figures to use two. I know that Redoubt's don't have packs but I already have plenty of those and also let's just say the Redoubts are eating full rations. I also know that Dixon are available but you either love Dixon's figures or you don't and I don't. It seems that Steve Barber offers some but I have tried to contact Triangle minis through their website (I got a message that I was sending to a bad email address) and straight to the website but that was a few days back and still no answer. So folks, what are my options? I live in the USA and would rather deal at home (no, it's not xenophobia, it's shipping and time). So once again, it's 28 mm figures, firing or loading, etc..

Try Old Glory 2nd Generation and Sash & Saber. The S&S will sell individual figures, at least Chris did that in the past so worth the a phone call. I once ordered lots of buglers, and mounted Guidon bearers from him.

Their figure packs are largely figures with packs. I'm trying to avoid only having one or two poses in the firing line.
