"FWIW, I dont' hate ALL Poser figures. One of my all time favorites was Miki 1. If she didn't have such miserable rigging, I'd still be using her and one of these days, when I learn how to weight map, I WILL be weight mapping her so that I can use her once again ;). The same goes for James, Koji, and Kelvin who are also decent figures if it wasn't for their rigging"

 

Looking forward to someone re-rigging Miki-1 !

She was the only DAZ/Poser figure with a truly photorealistic shape out of the box. Her mesh topology was a bit dense for my low end machine back then, so I rather built my own Aneta/Miki from my DAZ hybrids.

But with proper rigging, she'll be a lovely figure.

BTW, Sydney and MIKI are the exact same mesh. Sydney is basically a "caucasian" version of MIKI with a more V3-like shape.

Sadly, to me she lost most of the qualities that made Miki, well, MIKI, but she's still better out of the box than Jessi-I. (Who actually is not that hard to rework into something more believeable.)

And James-I and Koji-I are definitely the best Poser males ever made.

Sorry, no love for the "reworked" G2 versions or the other G2 figures here.

Especially Simon looked just plain creepy to me.  :-(
