You could select the figure, go to Body, and try unchecking "Light Emitter"

Most of the newer textures, or EZ Skin textures go to Alt Diffuse, which is the same thing as going to Ambient with the level set at 1.
Also, sometimes a light set to No Shadow will go through a mesh and show up on the other side, turning on shadows and setting at something like .1 or .2 can help with this.
