I would say V3 and M3 are definitely the most versatile as there is so much stuff out there for them.

I recently bought V2 as well because I discovered that there's a lot of free clothes and other things for her (and with Daz's big sale you can pick her up for a super low price if you're a Platinum Club Member). Runtimedna has a lot of great freebies for V2. Plus, her morphs are built in, and she renders quickly--a big bonus in my book.

I have M2 but so far I've only used him once. I've heard that he can use David's clothes, textures, and morphs. If so, that would be great and make him a lot more versatile.

I only recently acquired Stephanie so I can't say much about her.

I'd put Aiko on the very top of my list as most versatile. I didn't think much of her when I bought her, but I've come to love her. I use her more than V3. Her face is so expressive, and she renders so well. And there are a lot of packages out there for her too. Daz is really pushing her and Hiro so there's always new stuff coming out for both. The downside about Hiro is that most of the packages produced for him so far have been Oriental or fantasy based. I'd love to see some more every day clothes for him.

As for Apollo Maximus. He's a fantastic figure. He renders quickly and is easy to use. The downside: there isn't much in the way of clothes, hair, or poses for him yet. I don't have the time to make my own clothes or to mess with the Wardrobe Wizard.

I have Laroo and The Girl as well, and I wish there were more products for both.

As for Jessi, I think she's the ugliest Poser model that I've ever seen. I'm not in a big hurry to render her.
