"1. We hope to have it up the middle of this week at DAZ." Great news! I'll jot myself a memo to buy it and M3 this week. "2. Have not thought about a Aiko/Maiko set. So many figure so little time :) " Understood; there's been so little made especially for the figures, it always seems like a shame (especially for the male figure). They seem like naturals for the manga textures though... ;-) The previews look even better than my V3 version (love the helmet). You've sold another one! Thanks.
