I look in my runtime and I see that, thanks to Xurge and Luthbel, Mike is amply supplied with quality fantasy and sci fi gear. 

He's missing a lot of modern civilian stuff, though, fortunately, for men, there doesn't need to be nearly as much variation in style as in color, texture, and pattern. The same short sleeved shirt can be a casual Hawaiian shirt or a policeman's uniform.

Me, for modern stuff, I want a working Mike. A doctor, a fireman, a policeman, an airline pilot, delivery boy, chef... you name it. But it seems that one or two outfits could be textured and perhaps morphed to cover a very wide variety of occupations. Accessories could provide the details. And I'll admit right now, my interests may be a little more than mildly salacious: if the outfits had a few of the standard pinup type open/tug morphs, it would be a desirable bonus.

Some of this stuff is already in the Poser marketplace. But for the most part it has those funky joints.

A set of magnets to improve those funky joints on existing clothing... Hmm. I could really go for that.

I think, though, that there's a problem with accepting our word for what we want and what we'd pay for before we've seen the finished products.

I've seen a few creators complaining in the forums that they made what people asked for and didn't see the sales materialize. There are maybe a couple of reasons for that. 1. It's way easier to say you'll spend money you don't have than to actually do it, and 2. Sometimes the finished product isn't quite what you expected. Not sure how you can deal with that. It can't be easy.
