Actually, I don't think the Poser 8 stuff is really that bad...  Sure, Alyson needs some morphs to look presentable, and really, someone should have fixed that before she got in the box, but with some help, she can look pretty good.   3Dream and Deecey both have some free morphs out there that make Alyson pretty. 

Dial her legs & arms longer, and you've got a fairly decent character to work with.   (Of course, there isn't a lot of content for her out there, but that's what the wardrobe wizard is for.)  In the very least, she's good as an alternative to using V4 in every scene.

And then, there is my remapped Posette & Dork.  PosetteV3 comes with something like 200-300 face morphs alone (never counted them, but there's an awful lot), for shaping her face alone. Same with remapped Dork, albeit for his extra face and body morphs you'd need to get Momodot's Morphman.  Again, the range of possibilities with these figures is quite extensive!  And they're light-weight and easy to maneuver in the Poseroom.  With V4 I feel like I'm dragging a semi-trailer truck around, actually struggling with my mouse to get things to move.
