Quote - Those older figures are still included, Poser 10's Rex was pretty much doomed by default because he's male
Apollo Maximus was one of the most widely used and talked about 3rd party figures of them all, and he never had a female counterpart.
Being male doesn't doom a Poser figure by default. Being poorly designed does, regardless of gender.
Rex has potential, but just like with Roxie, his design was rushed. If they had included a selection of body and face morphs at release then I think both of them would have received a lot more support than what they have, as many people don't enjoy fighting with the face room to change the look of their characters. They want dials and presets to do that for them. Plus the face room support was botched innitially and took a while to get fixed.
I like what I've seen of Teyon's work with Rex, but the only examples I've seen of it is from his gallery and the occasional avatar thumb that he changes. I thought we would have seen expansion sets from SM by now that incorporated some of Teyon's work, but so far I haven't seen or heard anything about that.
