I agree on the figure variety point -- the more the merrier. Competition benefits everybody. But I'd still like to see the DAZ "family" as the default figures. That would benefit everybody, too. Greatly.
As matters stand now, I rarely use any of the default P6 figures. Other than an occasional use for James: on those extremely rare occasions when I want an alternative male figure for some purpose. But seeing as how I use V3 around 80% of the time -- and M3 most of the time after that -- the default P6 group are what I refer to as "Blue Moon models". In other words, I tend to ignore them. I've found that all blue moon models have their partisans within the Poser community -- but they are still just blue moon models. Also-rans: without a whole lot of outside support. Although there is some.
James is a pretty good model, though. I'll grant that much. Too bad that the same can't be said for Jessi. And as for the rest of the default P6 group -- I think that I've used Kate maybe one time since I've had P6. And that was for trying something else out. The others I've never even loaded.
BTW -- if someone actually DID manage to come up with a truly 'revolutionary' new figure: then all bets would be off. But I've yet to see it happen.
