The links to the store are still off.....but at least I saw the product last night :) The $64 US price for both products is not a bad price if it includes all the poses, sleeper, diaper,body texture, etc......all the things shown here (except for Don and Judy, of course)! As far as comparing to DAZ.....I think we are all caught up in the "piecemeal" DAZ marketing arrangement. Sure....you can buy one strange looking DAZ baby for $30, but then you add $10.95 for total expression and pose pack, $6.95 for baby props and baby faces and you still only have "one" ugly baby with nothing to wear! :) I would be interested in purchasing this product, since I never did buy the DAZ baby. I use Poser 5 and do not have Poser 4. And I love the material room option! However, I would want both the dynamic and conforming sleeper. I still don't know P5 well enough to use all the dynamic stuff. Dynamic hair (except for the skull caps) is just too slow on my machine, and I have not quite figured out how to do dynamic clothing to make it look natural. Most merchants who do products with Poser 5 ini mind,provide both, so users have the option. You make that change (a combined PP and P5 product) and you will have a sale from me! Either that or explain to me why just buying the P5 product won't limit me :) As for the comment: "This is the first non-Daz figure I have ever been tempted to buy, mostly because previous non-Daz figures have been below the standards set by that company" I couldn't disagree more. Sixus produces a wide range of excellent products (albeit, a bit of a niche line of products)that probably exceed DAZ standards in many respects. Curio has produced excellent characters that are now being purchased by DAZ. And now Anton is working on a male figure that may eventually blow the DAZ males away! DAZ just sells more stuff....that's all :) I look forward to more from your company Chris :)
