I remember the hype when Genesis (1) was first released, it never really came off, and Genesis 2 came quite soon after. I suspect that Genesis 9 will also be a bit of a "damp squib" and Genesis 10, when it comes, will go back to separate male and female figures!

Anyway, I've decided enough is enough. I'm sticking with Genesis 8 (and occasionally older figures!) for the foreseeable future, and not investing in Genesis 9 at all. I actually prefer having different male and female base figures and just don't think there are enough advantages of G9 to justify the expense of buying into another "generation"! 

I really don't want, and can't afford, to invest in yet another "generation" of characters, along with all the "extras" that are needed to get the best from the figures.
