"The problem i always have with 'more morphs' is that I do get lost in them or just lose endless time in finding the combination that gives the effect I need. One of the achievements in Poser is the morph brush. I invested in an A5 sized Wacom and learned to appreciate this feature of Poser. 'More morphs' was the solution for Poser 4 or 5. Development moved on since then.

I'm not sure I follow.  One of the most common reasons given for the lack of support/use of the Poser native figures is their lack of morphs for character diversity. 

Many don't like using the face room, much less the morph brush, and would rather be able to either dial in their characters from a set of morphs like the DAZ figures have, or load pre-existing characters based on a set of morphs, again like the DAZ figures have. 

Personally, I would like to see an advanced native Poser figure that can morph from James to Simon to Rex, to Ben etc. It's entirely possible, just hasn't been done yet.  "

It is VERY possible. I did some research on this back when I was sculpting Rex and Darrell was building him. We just never had the time to implement something that worked to the level we wanted. Who knows what the future will hold though? Just all boils down to time allowed. One thing I'm onboard for though is more support for the male figures in general. I've been making some clothes for Rex. Just need to find the time to finish it up.
