They might think about the Daz model in that you give the base away as a loss and charge for the morphs. It's worked well for Daz...
Reworkings of Alyson and Ryan really don't excite me much...the amount of stuff for them has always been piss-poor. Perhaps that will change now that there are no Daz figures, but I'm not gonna hold my breath ;). I think any figure released will have to have everything the Daz figures had to be accepted: a plethora of morphs, hair, shoes, clothes, characters, etc released WITH the figures at the same time, quality work, solid vendor backing and a good support system. As with most shiny new figures it should employ the newest tech available at the time. It should also be followed up with the opposite gender figure as well as options for children and teens that include all the above. It's a huge undertaking. I mean, it really is. I don't envy anyone that decides to take it on. In fact, I'm not sure how one person can deliver all that frankly without help. Daz was a business. They had the wherewithall to do all that. One person doing so in his/her spare time? Nope. SM has to pick up the ball and run with it. They're just gonna have to get into the content business or their software product will die a sloooow death ;).
