Quote - He really hasn't gotten the support he deserves. There are some items for him here, most notably the Windy Wizard Robe, which is an amazing item, so full of movement morphs you'd think it was dynamic. There are also many free textures for it, by some of the great texturers like Chohole and Wayii.
Have you got a link?

Considering that it's free, I'm surprised that there aren't more products for him.
The Windy Wizard Robe is here: www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/index.php
The Morphing Fantasy Robe is here, but the site is currently down for maintenance: purokc-creations.net/index.php
Chohole's free textures are here: chohole.francemi.net/page_6.htm
Wayii's free textures are here: www.sharecg.com/pf/Azhra
Chohole and Wayii have matching texture sets for the Windy Wizard Robe and Morphing Fantasy Robe, as well as the M4 versions (which use the same textures) and the M4 Mage outfit and M4 Hooded Cloak.
By the way, ADH3D has a bunch of Apollo stuff here: www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/index.php
He has different ones on sale each week; this week it's the 3 Roman items, 30% off.
But I also have learned you barley need to morph Apollo to get a strong man effect and doing hardly anything to his arms is a good choice.
Now his jeans appear to have a tug at the inseam, still trying to figure out a work around for that one, as it makes his jeans have a bit of a relaxed droopy look, I exspect to see crack when people droop that much wearing jeans.
But those morphs are really good on the jeans I must admit.
I think I am having some really good results with Apollo, But I am also useing a store purchased texture which helps alot.
Thee was an update at some point I forgot who put the freebie up buut does not seem to be there now, was alot of face morphs, that really allows you to alter him from the default boxed state he downloads as.
I like apollo a lot, but the terms of use statements around him kinda drove me off and sent me back to Michael. Now that the freak 4 morphs for M4 are available I really have no need for another mucule bound mesh. M4 I think is a better constructed mesh to begin with and with the morphs I can easily match in between states to get a solid feel.
Apollo Maximus is a good figure to use. What turned me off is the lack of stuff for him, both buyable and freebies. Yes, there are some good stuff out there for him, but not enough of it.
Worse stil, there is no program, that I know of, that converts clothing, hair, etc, from the Daz male figures to Apollo to give him more clothing options.
It's great that he's free and he does have some GREAT morphs. You can turn him into a baby, and old man or even a realistic looking woman or a girl teenager. He's that versitile.
But what happens when you have him as a female? Where's the clothes that will fit that new morph? Exactly. No where. You either you have to make them yourself or rely on someone to come out with some clothes for his new morphed form.
Because of that, I'd rather rely on Mill Baby, Luke and Laura, V4, David, Freak (and Freak 4) and M4. Yeah, it's more money out of my pocket, but at least I don't have to worry if their forms will lack clothes because these figures will always have at least something.
Maybe if someone were to show more attention to Apollo Maximus, he'd get the attention he deserves.
Just my thoughts.

I'm curious as to why this excellent figure isn't better supported by add-ons. I had a problem finding much for him beyond what is here and on the homepage. Is it just that people are using M4 or another male figure?
