Quote - Look at V3, SP3 and A3. The point behind them was that they were all figures of different proportions. If you wanted a tall amazon, go with Vicki. A slim fashion model: Steph. A teenage-esque schoolgirl: :Aiko. But now you don't have that. You just have 1 model that has to be morphed and modded to what you want. And that kinda defeats the purpose of having seperate models.

Same with the clothes. It's nice that they're trying to create a more universal wardrobe, but if I have to mess around with magnets (that have to be purchased seperatly!) and dial  a zillion dials, then it creates a whole lot more work for me, which can be especially frustrating if I'm just starting out and not a pro like most of you are. Any clothing item can be madce to fit any other figure if you do enough work with it. The whole point of getting clothing for the model you want to use is so you don't have to do all that work.

If Aiko's just a morph, then Daz should be charging a morph price for her, not a full model's price.

I agree, I don't see the need for her at all. if she's just going to be a morph.

If you scale A4 down to about 92% she is very nearly the shape of A3. As to clothing, let's wait and see. Sure you need magnets to convert existing V4 clothing, but my guess is that after about two more weeks we will see most of the merchants who put morphs in their clothes supporting the major A4 body morphs.

And A4 isn't just "a morph", she is five full-body morphs, plus a heck of a lot of facial and expression morphs. So the price, although steep, isn't that out of line considering the cost of the V4 morph++ set, or the M3 or V3 expression sets.

Finally, as to the need of her -- with A4 I can do things which I just couldn't do with V4. You can't, by dial turning, get a good anime/manga/cartoon face for V4, and you can't get the sort of exaggerated cartoon expressions either. I'm actually glad that its "just a morph", because you can get realistic expressions using A4 realistic, which you couldn't (very well, anyway), with A3 realistic.
