All of the above, each for her own purpose.  I have not read all of the posts; I was thinking of how I would use each figure.

While I have purchased other base figures and some products for them, I only use Posette and spin the dials to get what I want, then position and parent hair made for other dolls.  I only poly paint with the Grouping Tool to simulate clothing so a higher poly count is no guarantee the grid lines are where I need them.

I also cannot give you measurements, since I prefer "visually correct" proportions:  36-24-36 "looks" wrong on a five foot tall woman and on a seven foot tall woman but "looks" better on a five-foot-eight.  Would I use a five or a seven foot tall?  Yes, depending on context.  Would either have 36-24-36 to intentionally look wrong?  Yes, again depending on context.

So, I am back to my first comment about your figures:  All of the above, each for her own purpose.
