Quote - You have a strange way of spelling "untapped market". 😉

How am I an untapped market when I don't buy anything at all?  It's not that I have a big urge to consume stuff and there is no stuff that I want to consume - I stopped being a consumer and became a producer.  If there is something I want, then I model and rig it (and usually either give it away or sell it).  Maybe you didn't mean me in particular though, or content producers in general, I dunno.

And since I'm now a producer, albeit on a small scale, I understand totally why other producers like DAZ will produce what consumers want.  They've been selling this stuff for quite a long time now and as wonky as the current crop of figures looks, it pains me to say it - that's what the majority of buyers demand.  Why do you think V4 is their default and the one they put out for sale first, and Stephanie is a morph/scale change a few years later?  Why do you think they haven't even done a David 4 yet?  Low sales for the previous iterations, compared to much higher for the 6'4" DD-breast Barbie.  DAZ are not a charity or a religious instituion, and they aren't managed by stupid people.  Money is their only real goal, just like any business.
