Quote - 1. Unrealistically symmetrically pretty out of the box. Most people seem to like to render attractive super model type of characters.

If the face / body in the ad / thumbnail is supposed to be attactive but is not, I never look at it.  If it is supposed to be hideous, like a zombie, and it is too pretty, I never look at it, either - it better look like it is supposed to right out of the box.  Then, if I want to, . . .

Quote - 2. Lots of morphs that can then make this character more realistic or fantasy-like. 4. Lots of character textures which can also change the style of the character.

Once I like the promo and can do w/e with it, these should go together:

Quote - 3. Plenty of high quality clothing in all sorts of styles from fantasy to futuristic, both commercial and free. 5. Lots of pose and expression sets to make posing easier for a newcomer.

If the clothing has morphs / poses of its own, please include figure poses to go with them.  Example:  If a jacket actually unzips, I want a hand-on-zipper pose in the box.

Quote - 8. A family of characters - the one mesh fits all does not seem to work. A well designed human mesh which fits one gender would get me more interested and may even make me add to my character collection. 😄 11. I think the first human would have to be a female adult if a whole family cannot be released at the same time.

I take these to literally mean something like Don, Judy, Penny, and Will.  If so, that would be 1) good in the end but 2) four new figures to support unless they came bundled at a good price.
