Hi there, I would say if it's just the characters that you want, go with Daz, especially with Michael 3 supposedly coming soon. If your choice is either the figures or P5, definitely go with the figures. In my opinion the default P5 figures still aren't anywhere near the quality of the Daz canon, and there aren't as many acessories/clothes for them, either. P5 is a real memory hog and I wouldn't want to consider running it on anything less than what I've got, which is 100gb hard drive, a 64mb GE-FORCE graphics card, a gig of RAM and a 2.4 processor. Even then, I find it can't render a complex scene with the new Firefly render engine. Especially with hair! P5 hair is great, but again it really hogs the processing. Also, there isn't a good tutorial for P5 hair in the manual, so for me it was trial and error trying to get it right. HTH,
