Lyne makes a good point about the HiveWire figures. I don't know why the Poser community didn't more fully embrace them.
To be honest, there's an actual answer to that. But the answer would surely cause fights and be against the TOS. But simply, no they're not the same, so there's been no push by customers to invest in them. But I've seen 2 major pushes by this store to release that content for those figures, but looking at the "what's hot" during that time, the sales weren't there to support vendors doing more content.
I didn't say these figures were the same.
I said: "I use Dawn, Dusk, and Luna frequently and find them as serviceable as any of the Genesis figures. There are differences, some pros-and-cons, but they're solid figures with a dedicated team behind them."
At this point I don't expect support for Dawn and Dusk -- outside of HW itself -- to improve. And I still think that's too bad, because they're decent figures.
As I said, I gave an answer that wouldn't break out in a fight, and still stand by that they're not the same and because of that, customer support for those figures hasn't materialized outside of hivewire. However the issue comes down how easy content is to make for these and other Poser figures; and that brings us back to listening to what the vendors need.
