While I agree that the DAZ figures are, without doubt, the "big folks on the block" (and also, without doubt, the figures that achieve the best results), I am very interested to see what kind of momentum Elle (by Neftis) brings to the table. She is a wonderful, expressive model and it will be interesting to see how support for her takes shape. I'm also one who is in line for the Girl ... I liked her from the moment I saw her picture in the early posts, and before all the other toons became available. I've been holding off on the toons, with the exception of Neftoon Gal. I wouldn't hold my breath on waiting for a "consumer" version of Max ... I gave up on Max when its prices kept rising when others were falling. It got to be too rich for my blood, and I switched to LightWave. I haven't regretted that decision one bit. All content purchased for Poser can easily be modified to work with the higher end programs - once it is rigged it should work just as any other 3D model. You may not get the advantages of multi-resolution versions of the objects (as you would have in the modeler's native formats), but they will work ... even though they would tax resources more than a multi-res object would.
