Looked to me like the P5 Man was just a higher-res Dork (similar to the Mobius standard figures released in freestuff a while back), with different texture coordinates that are more similar to the current "Millenium" method of texturing. (Which has actually been done by artists for years in other applications, as the face REQUIRES more detail). I highly doubt that the Poser 5 models will be anything but wavefront object based (which means they need polygons), because that was also require users to know which models are polygon and which aren't, causing serious issues for people using morph targets. The P5 figures will by no means look better than Mike or Vicki, IMO. They're still the Dork and Posette, even if they are higher-res.
