I'm not all the interested, first pass. First, there's the attitude Kim has had against this market. I don't care if he has that attitude -- lots of people do; I ignore them -- but to sell out when the paycheck gets big enough doesn't impress me. Or did he decide he hadn't been fair and the gross generalizations weren't just? I don't know; I haven't read anything either way. Second, I don't think she's going to Poserize well. I understand Kim went to a lot of work and tricks to bone her in an unusual way, so that she would move as he wanted. Poser isn't as flexible as Lightwave and Max. On the other hand, maybe there's something in Studio she'll take advantage of. Mostly, though, she's too distinctive for the work I prefer to do. That's great as a character, but I want generic figures. The more flexible, the better. I generally am trying to recreate my own written characters when I work. I've gotten OK results putting one of those characters into the anime doll, but I'm still trying to Koshini her, and I don't think "The Girl" would take her at all. We'll see. They might do something that changes my mind.
