What if they didn't show any cleavage?

Don't turn this into Hintern-land  ;)  lol

I'd say, no matter what is done next, as long as it is corresponding with the existing range, it should be OK. Even non-fighting stances and such, as they can be easily used in skirmish/adventure style Pulp or VSF games.

I'm very much looking forward to ordering some of these and getting my brush on them (I have a very distinct colour scheme in mind), and the more useful figs there are in the range before I'm ready to order, the larger my order will probably be  :D

How about a pack of figures standing at attention? That could be helpful too, eh?
A CANADIAN local hobby store with a small selection of historical wargames miniatures (mainly from Warlords). They also have a great selection of paint and hobby accessories from Vallejo, Army painter, AK Interactive, Green Stuff World and more.; https://tistaminis.com/

I too like the idea of the Canadian Amazon Battalion. In general I would like to see the same kind of figure packs that you have already done but with a different national style of uniform ie: France, perhaps female Zouave/chasseur types, Italian style Femal Bersaglieri/Carabinieri or British with female Grenadier Guards/Highlanders etc
I am sure whatever you do will look great.

Also very useful. I really can't think of much you could do that would not be interesting (apart from the semi-nudes.... I'm not into vignettes....)

I do like the idea of artillery crew in shirtsleeve order to complement the current range, but I'd also second the suggestion for campaign dress, possibly both literally and figuratively. Perhaps looking  like they have been tramping through the jungles of Darkest Africa or Venus, which would provide a reasonable excuse for some décolletage to be on view or even for them to show a bit of leg!  ;)

When I do cavalry, I'll definately do a horse-tender.  That'll be an interesting pack.  Maybe I'll offer them a-la-carte, with the ability to buy as many horses as one wishes.

If you are going into the more obscure areas a telegraph operator and telegraph laying team would be different.  As would be a medical team, female doctors were rare but not unknown. Prof

And I was so proud of my field-telephone operator.   :(

would they have operated both  concurrently?.. if we are going all signals on this a heliograph might be nice as well and a semaphore and telescope set??

Why not all the comm's options?

You can buy what fits your desires for communication.

agreed though a horse holder and the dismounts' horses might be more immediate use..
