 seems like everyone is saying much the same thing ~ "I've got TONS of stuff for V4" ..................what I cant understand is WHY she took off the way she did ?? S4 and A4 didn't get the same amount off attention, think A3 was more popular then A4 and poor ol'Steph was ignored a lot no matter if she was a S3 or S4 (or petite ) and its even worse with poser dolls ~ next to no skins very little clothes/morphs (yes I know there some but not compared to what V4 has)

Why did V4 take off?

1.  She was a major step up from the DAZ Gen3 & the SM G2 figures.

2.  Practically every storefront was almost giving content away.  This is what started the mentality of Everything on sale, all the time.  People got used to paying very, very little and they haven't changed.

3.  WRT A4 & S4, since they were morphs as opposed to separate figures, one didn't need to build separate products.  My base V4 has all of SP4's morphs installed - her morphs are very useful, especially the height related ones.  They are mandatory if you want a normal sized Gen4 female.  And why many of us were pissed that we never got a D4.  He was really necessary to get normal sized males without having to work the scaling dials to death.

4.  AFA clothing - clothing has been decoupled from figures.  Vicky's closet is every female's closet in my runtimes.  All it takes is leaving a Poser 4 workflow behind.
