My problem is not that there are good character bases at DAZ Studio. It is that free clothing for those figures is scarce or hard to find, and some of what I have found works poorly or not at all.

I do not have funding to buy very much, and so I must look for free stuff that works with what I have. Therefore, if I can acquire a figure base that also has a lot of free clothing and accessories that work with it, that is good for me. The Apollo Maximus figure is such a character base.

Thanks for your post, concerning other character bases. I do plan to acquire them as soon as I can.
