It's not a teaser. the genesis figure is the new one included in Daz Studio 4.

Although it says that they are not asking us to change software, basically they are saying "try out Daz Studio 4 and the genesis figure while they are still free, then when Poser, Carrara etc are updated to accept the new figure, you will already have experience using it"

In other words "try our software, you might like it so much that you keep using it!" ;)

Daz Studio 4.8 and 4.9beta, Blender 2.78, Sketchup, Poser Pro 2014 Game Dev SR5 on Windows 8 Pro x64. Poser Display Units are inches
