For 1.0 software I'd say it pretty much does the job. check my MIMIC FAQ at http://www.3dtutor.homestead.com for NFO on makeing millenium figures work with MIMIC. I agree though that future releases of figures should be MIMICABLE. It's job pretty much is lipsincing. I think adding other expressions are a waste of time unless you can manually select these from a list. how could the software tell if it is supposed to be smiling or frowning from the tone of your voice alone. I use Poser Pro Pak with Lightwave and wish that the FACE STATION thing were possible with Poser and Lightwave. For expressions and capturing the neuances of expressions would make it a truly professional tool. I purchased a second copy when I saw the price drop. I feel jumpy with MIMIC in a production environment with no backup. Then when LIPSYNC went belly up, I was ready to panic. Alls well as ends well.
