Though I would consider the likely media reaction, and the attitude of the general public, to be more important than any potential legal issues (if there were any that could be applied in such a situation - I have no idea about that). That could cause enough reputational damage to bring a company down, plus it would have the potential to cause damage by association on a wider scale too.
The general public doesn't own Poser or Daz Studio: almost no one I know who doesn't frequent these forums even knows what the software does. Renderotica was still functioning last time I checked and it has some some stuff for sale that even manages to offend me. There are plenty of character morphs/textures for sale here the promos for which include rather details shots of genitals (though not articulated), and yet I'm not hearing any loud cries against Rendo...
Before I can subscribe the the idea that offering such a figure will damage a company's reputation, I'd like to hear of an example of it having actually happened.
